ago, leaving Joe in a wheelchair for the rest of his life, becomes a
fugitive, Quagmire, Joe and Peter team up to hunt the bad guy down.
The episode received mostly positive reviews for its storyline and
cultural references.While watching Quahog 5 News at The Drunken Clam,
Peter, Joe, and Quagmire hear that notorious heroin mogul Bobby “The
Shirt†Briggs â€" (an apparent reference to the Twin Peaks character
of the same name) who began a minor drug-running operation in 1996 â€"
has finally been caught after fifteen years on the run. Admitting to
having lied about being in an accident during a fight with The Grinch
on the roof of an orphanage (as Joe mentioned in "A Hero Sits Next
Door"), Joe reveals the truth: after being exposed in an undercover
infiltration of the heroin operation, Joe was shot by Briggs
point-blank in the legs.A party is held at Joe's house to celebrate
his justice, with him finally gaining some closure about Briggs; Joe
even points out the previous night was the first night in fifteen
years he didn't strangle Bonnie in his sleep. However, a breaking news
story seen at the party reveals that Bobby Briggs escaped police
custody during a prison open house. Joe is devastated and goes to the
Chief of Police, demanding to be put on the case. He is turned down,
as the Chief of Police states that Joe is "too close to the case" and
assigns the job to two other police officers that are so far from the
case, they don't even care. Back at The Drunken Clam, Joe expresses
his lament. Seeing his friend's anguish, Peter volunteers himself and
Quagmire as backup on a mission to catch Briggs. Despite misgivings
about police protocol, Joe agrees to the plan and reveals that he has
an entire room in his house full of information on Bobby Briggs (this
explains why Kevin and Susie both share a room). Their first stop is
Atlantic City, where a stripper named Tanya (who is known to have been
Briggs' only relationship) works.Before the trio departs, Quagmire
leaves with Lois his newest cat Principessa (a full-blooded Persian
cat), along with very exact instructions about caring for it. In
Atlantic City, the trio find Briggs' girl at a strip club. When Joe's
direct questioning fails, Quagmire cites his ability to communicate
with strippers, extracting Bobby Briggs' exact address through a
sexual osmosis he calls the "Vulcan V meld". Back in Quahog, Brian
grows jealous of the attention Quagmire's cat gets and gives. When
Chris states cats are better than dogs, Brian is injured trying to
prove that dogs also always land on their feet.
