Lois: Kids, we just have to learn to accept this. Like one of those stories on Dateline where a family member suffers a horrible accident and becomes a burden on everybody. Sure, they pretend to be happy, but they're dead inside, they're dead. And that'll be our lives.
Peter: Anyone who opposes our demands will be destroyed. Our first demand: You will erect a statue in the town square. This statue will depict Blair Warner admitting to Mrs Garrett that the poem she submitted for her creative writing class was actually plagiarised from a work by Emily Dickinson. We have spoken!
Episode Goofs
Stewie reveals his butt while peeing on a boneless Peter, however, if you look closely enough he has no crack.
At the beginning of the episode, we see the Griffin's watching television. Meg has a bag of peanuts next to her, but in "The Kiss Seen Around The World" we found out that she is allergic to peanuts.
When Peter is on the kitchen table with no bones we see Stewie in his high chair wearing his usual yellow shirt & red overalls but when Lois says "I guess we could adjust to this", he's only wearing his yellow shirt, his red overall are gone.
When Chris presses Peter's flesh into the comics like silly putty, the imprint is clearly upside down but when Chris stretches the image, Mary Worth's face is right side up.

Adam West: I've dealt with superbeings before.
This is a funny reference. Adam West, the real Adam West, played Batman on the original TV series. This line is an obvious reference to that.
