Recap / American Dad S 6 E 6 Shallow Vows

Go To

Stan and Francine decide to hold a vows renewal ceremony, which hits a roadblock when Stan reveals that he married Francine for her beauty and so she stops her beauty regimen. Meanwhile, Steve and Hayley are threatened by one of Roger's personas to find the perfect gift for their parents.


Tropes:

  • Bunny-Ears Lawyer: Jeannie Gold may have questionable ethics, has no problem terrorizing people with vicious thugs, and keeps sexually explicit and illegal content on her website, but by damn the woman knows how to plan a wedding.
  • Hypocrite: All throughout the episode, Francine is furious that Stan cared more about her looks than who she was on the inside, and she was irate when he bailed on the vow renewal. But when it came for their second attempt at renewing their vows, Francine balked when she realized she would have to be the breadwinner after Stan severed his retinas, as she did not want to be the provider.
  • Noodle Implements: Roger tells Stan about his website, before making it clear that what's on there is Not Safe for Work or even legal.
    "Stan, remember the first rule of any wedding is that the bride is always beautiful. The second rule you can read on my website. You have to be eighteen to log on. I have some sexy barnyard stuff on there that is NOT for everyone; I could get in a lot of trouble. If you do decide to check it out you need to clear your history right away. You may need to uninstall your browser. I'm telling you scrub that thing clean. If you think you're being too cautious, you're not. They will take us both to jail."
  • Shout-Out:
  • Temporary Bulk Change: Francine becomes obese after stopping her beauty regimen, which includes working out every free second of the day.
