I was surprised by the Quinn reveal that the whole thing was an elaborate ploy, but I probably should have seen it coming.

The only thing that surprised me about this episode was the near-ending when Brian gets shot and Peter cries over him. That kind of emotion is hardly EVER in any Family Guy and for a second, a brief second, I almost sympathized with the on-screen characters.

The scene where the family is smothering Bob so he can't leave made me break down and laugh in a way I haven't in a while. I agree it's similar to the chaos of the Marx Brothers. I know Family Guy sometimes does the whole talking over everyone thing, but generally it's one camera angle and everyone just stands around…
