resumed watching Jolly Farm Revue, after previously swearing off the
show in "Road to Europe". Remembering a story he had seen in the local
newspaper, Brian tells Stewie about upcoming auditions for an American
version of the show. Jumping at the opportunity, the two show up to
the auditions, but quickly learn that there is only one female role
remaining. Determined to win a spot on the show, Stewie decides to
cross-dress as a woman, naming his new identity "Karina Smirnoff".
Beginning his audition, he starts by telling a completely fabricated
story. Convincing the producers that he is telling a true tale, he
wins the role. The next morning, on the first day of filming, Stewie
as Karina introduces himself to the rest of the cast, and quickly
falls in love with a female co-star named Julie. Another co-star,
Randall, objects to the new role that Karina was cast to play, and
takes Julie away from him to prevent their friendship. As they
continue shooting, however, the two develop a friendly relationship,
eventually deciding to hold a sleepover, where they become even
closer. The next day, Julie professes her love for Karina by wishing
that she was actually a boy, causing Stewie, as Karina, to come on to
her. Julie insists that she is not a lesbian, so Stewie decides to
unveil his true identity to the entire cast during a live taping of
the show. Shocked that Karina was actually a boy, Julie's mother
refuses to let her speak to him, with Stewie left to regret his
decision to come out as a cross-dresser, and decides to go get ice
cream with Brian, as he can no longer wear that dress.Meanwhile, Peter
begins to insult Lois about her advancing age, including her minor
strands of gray hair. This makes her extremely self-conscious, and
soon Lois becomes aware of her lust for a younger man. After
introducing her new boyfriend, Anthony, to the family, Meg goes on to
make out with him on the family couch, with Lois watching over nearby.
Jealous of her daughter's new-found love, she begins hitting on
Anthony. Later that day, Lois sends Meg to pick up her grandfather,
leaving her all alone with Anthony. The two then begin making out on
the couch, but Meg returns to the house only a few moments later and
discovers them. Angry at her mother for ruining her chance at having a
normal boyfriend, Meg threatens Lois to lay off of him, pulling out
one of her own teeth in frustration. Lois quickly agrees, but is still
angry with Peter for continually insulting her. She confronts him
about this, and he admits that he was actually embarrassed about his
own advancing age, as well as his lack of fitness, and was only
insulting Lois in order to distract her from the fact that she could
be with a much better-looking man. He apologizes for his behavior, and
Lois forgives him. Go, Stewie, Go! Biography, NetWorth, Height, Age, Weight, Family, Married, Son, Daughter
