"So, Ida, you miss your penis?" " [IN NORMAL VOICE] Peter!" " Thank you for asking it." " Jesus." " No, it's a perfectly normal question." "We can't sit here and pretend everything's the same." "It is a big transition for me, yes." "But the answer is, I still have my penis." "They just turned it inside out to simulate a vagina." " Come on, Dad." " Not a bad option to have in the pocket." "So, Lois, what is this meal?" "Wow, it's so good." "Thank you, Glenn." "It's nothing fancy." "Just chicken with rosemary." "But I did put a lot of planning into the meal." "We went down the list." "Nothing with wieners, nuts or grapes." "Out of respect." "Lois, I have to say, you look so put together." " Where do you buy your clothes?" " Oh, how sweet." " Well, I love Anne Klein." " I'll have to try them." " I like the outfit you have on." " Thank you." "Who did your procedure?" "Wow, you just burned your last friend in this room, lady." "This corn is special." "Tell me about those knockers." "Are we...?" "Is that just, like, implants?" "Or did they reassign some ass fat up there?" "All right, I'm out of here." "I wonder if I could push mine inside." "Oh, my God, it worked." "It's gone." "I can't believe..." "Oh, no, it's back." "Well, that was quite a performance." "My performance?" "What about you?" ""Golly, Lois, where do you shop?" "Gee, your house looks beautiful." "I have an inside-out penis."" "I never said their house looks beautiful." "It didn't." "My dad..." "My dad talking about decorating and women's clothing?" "All I've talked about for years with these people is what a war hero you were." "And I was." "I'm changing my future, not my past." "Oh, yeah?" "What about my future, huh?" "I don't even know what to call you." "My dad?" "My other mother?" "My friend who pees sitting down but can also palm a basketball?" " What about Ida?" " Oh." "No." "Man, you know, this is too hard." "You know, you're asking me to accept an awful lot." "I just..." "I don't know if I can do this." "I understand." "I had the advantage of thinking about this for years." "For me, it was easy." "Do I wanna be happy the rest of my life or miserable?" "So now you're happy, and I'm miserable." "I see." "I'm sorry you feel that way." "Oh, boy, nice to be back home." "Those seminars can wear you out." "[DRIVER GRUNTS]" "Wow, did you say, "Web-based Internet series"?" " No." " Oh, my bad." "Great idea for one..." "Where am I taking you again?" "You know what?"

" Oh, no, it's not you." "I'm just dealing with a lot right now." "You know, kids." "Ah." "Does not come with a manual." "[BRIAN CHUCKLES]" "So you're doing something with the Internet?" "I am, I am." "Being a writer, I'm always exploring new possibilities." "Wow, I could never be a writer." "How do you do it?" "You see, when I watch the world go by, I think of it kind of like a huge screen." "Every little interaction, every little moment... is another scene captured by this camera." " That's fascinating." " Oh, yeah." " Brian." " Ida." "Two more, please." "So I finally tell them, "Hey, I came here to be at the seminar, not run it."" "[BOTH LAUGHING]" "Oh, that's..." "Oh." "Mm." "You know, we are in a hotel." "And I'm in Room 406." "Go on ahead, I'll settle up." "Put it on 406." "Well, look who's home." " Hey, buddy." " How was the seminar?" "It was terrific." "The first day we were there..." "Brian, Brian, Brian." "I was after "good" or "bad."" "Fine." "You guys are not gonna get to me this morning." "I am in too good a mood." "I met an amazing woman." " Finally, the whole package." " Oh, you met her at the seminar?" "No." "It was right here in town, last night." "She's a classy, smart, beautiful lady." "Look, I took a picture of her." "See?" "Uh..." "Wha...?" "Is...?" "Is...?" "Um..." "Uh..." "Here, Lois, take a look." "[BOTH LAUGHING]" " Oh, my God!" "Ha-ha-ha." " This is the best day of my life!" "[BOTH LAUGHING]" "You know, you're just jealous because I found a real woman." "[BOTH LAUGHING]" " Oh, hey, Brian." " Hey." "I called in and a new cell phone should be here for you in three business days." " What?" "Why?" " Clearly, yours is broken... because I haven't heard from you." "I wanted to tell you about my week." "Doesn't anyone in this house care about anyone but themselves?" " Hey, Brian, how was the seminar?" " Meg, please." "I'm serious, Stewie." "I've had an amazing few days, and nobody cares." "Oh, come on in." "Come on in." "Tell old Stew." "Okay, well, first, the seminar was terrific." "I absorbed so much." "And then I get back here last night, and I meet an incredible woman." "I've heard the phrase "soul mate" for years... and I never got it till last night." "Well, I've got a woman story for you that you're not gonna believe." "Quagmire's father, decorated war hero Lieutenant Commander Dan Quagmire... is now a woman." " You're kidding." " No." "Total sex change." " Ha, ha." "That is hysterical." " I know, huh?" " Suck on that, Quagmire." "Ha, ha." " Ha, ha." "Yeah." "It's not settling with the Q-man all too well." "Oh, my God, what does it look like?" "You know, not half bad." "Nothing you'd look twice at, but not bad." "Oh, my God." "You know, that is a tough road ahead." "What do those people do as far as relationships and sex and stuff?" "I don't know." "It's gotta be a train wreck down there." " Just an absolute casserole of nonsense." " Is she over there right now?" " We should go take a look." " No." "She's staying at the Marriott." " Damn, I was just there." " Really?" "Maybe I saw him in the lobby and didn't even know." "Oh, no, you'd know." "Oh, man, what do we call him now?" "We still call him Dan?" "No, and I'm not crazy about the name change." " What is it, like, Danielle or Dana?" " No, Ida." "[GAGGING]" "[BRIAN PANTING]" "[BRIAN SCREAMS]" "What?" "What the hell?" "What's wrong with you?" " I had sex with her!" " What?" " I had sex with her at the Marriott!" " Aah!" "Why?" "!"

"He didn't actually move, he's just visiting!" "I've been worried sick." "Where have you been?" "Listen, I feel awful about the things I said last night." " I was selfish." " You weren't selfish." "I realize I put a lot on you." "I was wrong to assume that you would understand and be able to accept this." "But trust me, I had been unhappy for a long, long time." "Wow." "Well, all I want is for you to be happy." "You're my dad, and if you're happy, I'm happy for you." "I'm sorry, Dad." "I love you." "I love you too, Glenn." " Glenn?" " Sorry, sorry." "Damn thing can't tell the difference." "[BOTH LAUGHING]" "Oh, dear." "Okay, well, so now that we got all the mush out of the way..." "I have some news." "Tell me." "Tell me." " I met someone."
