Plot
  • Chris's principal at Buddy Cianci Junior High calls and reports that Chris was caught peeking into the girls' locker room. While at the school to discuss Chris's situation, his father Peter spots Mr. Fargus, who had been his favorite teacher. Fargus is much more subdued than Peter remembers due to the medications the school board orders him to take. Peter throws the medication away, hoping that he will once again be a wacky, inspiring teacher. right|250px To help Chris keep out of trouble while dealing with his natural curiosity about women, Peter gives him a pile of his old skin mags. A news flash reports that Mr. Fargus, off his medication and unbalanced, conducted a student egg drop event using the eggs of the "endangered California condor". Fargus is immediately fired for his lack of judgment. The same news report mentions that school board candidate Betsy Lebeau has withdrawn, leaving Lois unopposed. Peter demands that Lois get Fargas' job back, which Lois refuses to do. Peter, convinced that Mr. Fargas' firing was unfair, decides to enter the race for school board president as well. Meanwhile, Chris begins showing his new found trove of pornography to school buddies, and Stewie begins to realize that he misses Lois acting as foil to his schemes. Cleveland expresses concern for Peter's campaign, since he has no support entering a debate. Predictably, Peter retorts to Lois's well-thought-out platform with personal insults and nonsense . He gains support from the crowd until Lois, whose desire to win gets the better of her, points out his ignorance and lack of experience. Peter responds by claiming Lois eats babies. left|250px Watching election night results on television, Lois and Brian see a horrifying ad from Peter. He displays a picture of her in skimpy lingerie and calls her a slut. The ad works, and Peter is elected in a landslide victory. Lois furiously demands that he had better do something worthwhile with his presidency besides reinstating a crazy teacher. Incredibly, Peter does institute some landmark programs within a few short weeks, which surprises Lois. During a live interview with Asian reporter Tricia Takanawa, however, Peter discovers that all the male students are reading his old "mens magazines" in the library. Peter's popularity crashes in the ensuing scandal, and in desperation, Quagmire hires political consultant James Carville, who advises Peter to blame Lois for the pornography. In a public statement, Peter attempts to pass the buck to Lois, but is unable to follow through and admits responsibility. He states his regret over humiliating his wife for the election and resigns from his post, boarding a helicopter in a parody of Richard Nixon's post-resignation departure from the White House. During the credits, Mr. Fargus returns to work, but is shot at by the XL-K hall monitor enforcement droid Peter installed in the process.
