Mom's the Word is the twelfth episode of the twelfth season of the
animated comedy series Family Guy and the 222nd episode overall. It
aired on Fox in the United States on March 9, 2014, and is directed by
John Holmquist and written by Ted Jessup. In the episode Peter's
mother, Thelma Griffin, dies of a stroke. After the funeral, Thelma's
friend Evelyn arrives to support Peter, but ends up kissing him. The
episode marked Lauren Bacall's final television role.Lois gives Peter
grief for eating an entire tube of raw cookie dough (which Peter
thought was a sausage with raisins). At the Pawtucket Brewery, Peter
is bored while sitting through a meeting until his stomach starts to
give him trouble (as a result of the raw cookie dough and a taco he
found in the parking lot) and he soils himself trying to get to the
restroom while evading various people. When in the restroom, Peter is
washing his pants with the toilet water. Depressed and exhausted
following that incident, Peter (while wearing his shirt as pants)
comes home from work to find his friends and family gathered in the
living room. After a rant where he thought the incident at work had
leaked out to Quahog, Lois tells him that they didn't find out about
the incident and explains they found out his mother, Thelma, died of a
stroke. After the service, a woman named Evelyn approaches Peter and
tells him she was Thelma's closest friend and the two connect after
she tells him about her husband, Walter, dying some time ago. The two
begin spending much time together and Peter begins seeing her as a
surrogate mother.Peter takes Evelyn to the bar and introduces her to
Joe and Quagmire. When they leave upon being obviously disturbed by
her (it was also shown that Joe was saving his regained walking
ability for Susie's wedding as he abandons his wheelchair), Evelyn
attempts to seduce Peter by kissing him. Later that night, Peter tells
Lois what happened and she suggests Peter talk to Evelyn. When he
confronts her, Evelyn lies and says her medicine made her act in an
uncharacteristic way and the two become friends again. After spending
more time with her, Peter realizes she was lying as she continues
making advances towards him and immediately ends the friendship. The
next day, he visits his mother's grave, where he sees Evelyn. Evelyn
apologizes to Peter and explains that Peter's the first man to pay any
real attention since her husband died, and she had taken advantage of
that fact. Upon hearing this, Peter realizes that what happened
between him and Evelyn was also partially his faultâ€"due to missing
his mom so much, he had looked to Evelyn as a replacement. Peter and
Evelyn reconcile, but while they hug, Peter accidentally cracks
Evelyn's spine, thus killing her. He places Evelyn on a nearby bench
and immediately leaves her for the groundskeeper to handle.
