History Recap / FamilyGuyS11E16TwelveAndAHalfAngryMen

** Tom parodies Juror #10, both vote 'guilty', not out of the case facts, but out of personal bias against the type of person the accused is (for Juror #10-Slum-borns and for Tom-non-mustached people) and are shot down for it. In contrast to Juror #10 though, Tom's bias is more reserved and he at least has a FreudianExcuse for it (his father hated non-mustached people).

** Third, due to the fact that Carter and Peter have familial ties to Mayor West's wife Carol, they should not have legally been allowed to serve on his jury. Anyone related either by blood or marriage to the defendant is not allowed to serve on this jury due to the potential of bias.

-->'''Carl:''' [[LampshadeHanging You got that from]] [[Film/SupermanTheMovie ''Superman'']].

** The entire episode basically pays homage to 12 Angry Men.
** The title of the episode is a mix between the aforementioned movie and the sitcom Two and a Half Men.

* ShoutOut: The entire episode basically pays homage to 12 Angry Men.

* ShutUpHannibal: Brian manages to get the best of nearly everybody who insist on giving Mayor West a guilty vote.

* FantasticRacism: Tom Tucker doesn't like plain-lippies (people who can't grow a mustache). His father felt the same way.

!Tropes;

* TheUnReveal: It is never shown how Consuela, Mort, Dr. Hartman, Carl, Bruce, and Seamus changed their minds on their guilty votes.
** It's also not revealed who was it that actually did the crime and why he framed Adam West.

** Third, due to the fact that Carter and Peter have familial ties to Mayor Wests' wife Carol, they should not have legally been allowed to serve on his jury. Anyone related either by blood or marriage to the defendant is not allowed to serve on this jury due to the potential of bias.

** Peter parodies Juror #7, both goof-off during the proceedings and are generally indifferent to the case. Though unlike Juror #7, Peter does show a little bit more concern and also, they both sit in the same spot at the jury table.

* AnAesop: Just because there’s evidence that may seem incriminating enough to prosecute a person, it doesn’t mean that evidence is true.

*** Subverted in Peter's case though, as a gag near the end indicates that he's actually not supposed to be part of the jury. Though that's another legal violation in of itself.

* ToiletHumour: While on a bathroom break, Peter thinks he dropped his cell phone in the toilet, and dumps his hand through his own excrement to look for it, but is utterly uncomfortable while doing so. Things escalate when a spider crawls on his face and he hits it with the hand he put in the toilet and bemoans about his blunder. The gag ends when Peter locates his phone behind the toilet.
