* WhatHappenedToTheMouse: The last we see of the Black Knight is him getting defeated by Peter in a jousting match. You'd think he'd go up to him and demand a rematch because he "just got lucky" but for some reason he never did.
* YourCheatingHeart: The Black Knight's girlfriend flirting with Peter.

* BrokenPedestal: The Black Knight to Peter, and one of the worst examples yet. During Peter's youth he falls under the influence of LSD and falls off a tower and is saved by the Black Knight, and the moment inspired him to become a knight like him ever since. Years later, when the Black Knight notices his girlfriend flirting with Peter, he develops an immediate dislike on Peter under the wrong idea that he was harassing her and threatens to kill him if he ever sees him in the fair again, bullying him into quitting. He doesn't even let him be a spectator.

* GettingCrapPastTheRadar: When Peter is a prostitute, he asks Lois if she wants a "Cleveland steamer". The Fox censors merely thought it was a nonsensical, made-up phrase (or it had something to do with Cleveland Brown, Peter's BlackBestFriend) so they let it slide, but it's actually a real sexual practice where one person defecates on their partner's chest (because of this revelation, the entire part with Peter working as a hooker is cut on free-TV syndication, but not the cable reruns or the DVD). Creator/SethMacFarlane can't believe they got away with that, especially considering the original line mentioned a "half-and-half" (half oral, half anal sex), which was rejected by FOX censors on sight.
