Love Thy Trophy

Written by Mike Barker & Matt Weitzman and directed by Jack Dyer

The residents of Spooner Street take part in the annual Quahog Harvest Day Parade, and winning first prize for their ``Who`s the Boss`` float. After arguing over who should take the trophy home, it is decided that they should share it by displaying it in the street.

When the neighborhood wakes up the next day the trophy is gone, and Spooner Street literally turns into a war zone.

Meanwhile, Meg gets a job at Flappy Jack`s as a waitress after being mistaken for a unmarried teenage mom (she had taken Stewie out with her). When word gets out that Stewie is addicted to crack, the authorities turn up at the Griffins` home in the war torn Spooner Street to take him away.

Under the sign for Child Services it says: "Taking your children away for over 50 years."

At the end when Brian suggests that the trophy had torn them apart, among the murmurs of agreement one of them says that "Peter" (not Brian) has a good point.
When Peter is searching Quagmire's house, you see a picture of Lois in a two piece. But Lois didn't find out that she had lost the picture until they get home and find that their house was ransacked.
