"Yes, I can, Meg." "He's going back to jail." "Well, if you're taking him to jail, you have to take me, too!" "I know." "That's the plan." "You're under arrest for harbouring an escaped convict." "Oh, well, that's only fair, because after all, I did hide him from the..." "What?" "Uh, hi." "Did you also get caught trying to vote in Ohio?" "Well, this is it." "Meg gets out of jail today." "Already?" "Seems like just yesterday we rented her room to that fly that wants to leave but can't figure it out." "FLY:" "OK, now where now?" "PETER:" "Right there." "I'm having some trouble." "Right in front of you!" "OK, I can hear you." "Volume's not a problem." "I'm just not quite seeing what you're referring to." "Fly out the window!" "Up here, maybe?" "No!" "To your left!" "No, that's just more wall." "How many eyes do you have, huh?" "Just two, same number as you, but, you know..." "I'm not..." "Just go!" "Oh, my God!" "Whatever it is you're driving at, I'm just not getting it." "You're right there!" "So I'm just gonna go back upstairs." "I think we should all go together to pick Meg up." "She's probably fragile after being in there so long, and I'm sure she'll be heartened to see our faces." "I'm home." "You're all my bitches now." "OK." "Meg." "You look so different." "How was prison?" "First question, who's the biggest, toughest guy in this house?" "I don't like to toot my own horn, but I believe I hold the distinction... (GRUNTING)" "My house now, bitch!" "Now who's the funniest?" "I know my way around a joke." "(GRUNTING)" "For God's sake, Dad, have some humility!" "It'll save your life!" "(GRUNTING)" "There better be beer in the fridge."

"I did all your laundry." "Oh, my God!" "What is that smell?" "It's my poop bucket." "What the hell?" "I'm used to going to the bathroom in my room." "That's disgusting!" "No, you use the toilet here like everyone else!" "No." "Ugh!" "God!" "It smells horrible!" "Can you at least empty it each time you use it?" "I like to fill it up." "I'm not making a million trips." "Oh, my God!" "Are you using my shirts as toilet paper?" "Yeah." "And I think I might need some right now." "Get out now or stay and get weird." "Your call, warden." "Hey, who's the new dude?"

"(ALL LAUGHING)" "Peter, Meg's been suspended from school." "That's OK." "Whatever she wants to do." "She cracked three kids' skulls open!" "Ever since she's gotten out of prison, she is out of control." "That's what the penal system does in this country." "It turns small-time offenders into hardened criminals." "Look at Meg." "They took an innocent little girl and turned her into a psychotic, sociopathic freak." "(ALL GASP) What did you say, Brian?" "Oh, I was picking up on something Lois said." "What did you say, Lois?" "Something about Meg being a freak?" "Oh, no, I didn't say anything." "Peter said something about Meg, which I completely disagree with." "That wasn't me." "Stewie was really laying into Meg about something." "Yeah, Stewie." "Definitely Stewie." "Oh, so now everyone understands me." "Look, Meg, we're just worried about you." "Well, don't."

"What happened to the girl we used to know?" "The one that Luke fell in love with?" "The one he's expecting to see when he steps out of that prison in 40 years?" "I don't care about Luke." "I don't need him." "I don't need anyone!" "If you don't put the gun down, I'm gonna be forced to call the police." "Good!" "Call the police!" "I want you to!" "What do I care if I go back to prison?" "Nobody cares about me anyway." "You're wrong, Meg." "I wanna show you something." "Teen People?" "It's the article I wrote about you."

"Oh, my God, I can't believe I did this." "I was just so tired of being everyone's whipping girl that it felt kind of good to do some of the whipping." "Give me the gun, Meg."
