- Quotes
Stewie Griffin: I like you lot. I guess you could say I... really like you. I would... even dare to go a little further, perhaps. I... care a great deal about you. Very great deal. Maybe even... deeper than that. I... I... I love you. I mean, you know, not in like a, "Hey, let's, you know, let's have an underpants party," or whatever grownups do when they're in love, but I mean, I mean, I love you as one loves another person whom one simply cannot do without.
Brian Griffin: Well I... I love you, too, Stewie.
Stewie Griffin: You give my life purpose, and maybe, maybe that's enough. Because that's just about the greatest gift one friend can give another.

The throw a complete curve ball and give us an episode full of substance and still not without the same anarchic comedy we'd grown to love them for.
It starts off almost like a regular episode. The bickering, the off beat gags and then things get repugnant. They don't milk it though. They're actually quite classy with their "tasteful" depiction of reluctant copraphagia. It's an important plot point, it has a great meaning within the context of the story.
People hate that Stewie went from supervillian to metrosexual and these same people tend to hate how Brian went from everyman to "liberal douchebag" but I think we see here one of the best examples of how a show can begin with off the cuff character types and develop them over time, not only into two three dimensional characters, but characters with a nuanced, funny and poignant relationship in the masculine style: marked by both antagonism and great tenderness.
Maybe the people who actually watch plays will tell me that this is cliche and deriviative. But for me its a chance to feel closer to two of my favourite characters and testimony that FG is a show where you really never know what to expect.
It's a dark narrative has us asking ourselves difficult questions.
