Go To

  • Just Here for Godzilla: Fans of the New England Patriots show an interest to this episode because of all the Patriots references.
  • Moment of Awesome:
    • Stewie beating Brian twice.
    • Peter choosing to stand against the Patriots team alone, to which he's naturally pounded. Tom Brady congratulates him for doing so.
    • Carol Channing winning the boxing match against Mike Tyson through sheer endurance.
    • Brian getting revenge on Stewie, psychologically torturing him with the fact that he doesn’t know when it’s coming. And then pushing Stewie in front of a moving bus.
  • Signature Scene:
    • The two infamous scenes where Stewie beats up Brian over fifty dollars is what most people remember about this episode.
    • The Shipoopi music number.
  • Signature Line: WHERE'S MY MONEY?!
  • Visual Effects of Awesome: Peter's rendition of "Shipoopi" from The Music Man is very well animated, especially by prime time TV standards.
  • Unintentional Period Piece: This episode was made during the early years of Tom Brady's long career, when the New England Patriots dynasty led by him was just getting underway. He would eventually leave the team in 2020 to sign with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, well after the episode's original air date.
