* CutawayGag:
** The show's first ever cutaway gag is about Hitler being OutclassedAtTheGym by strong Jewish men, following Lois' remark that a lot of the world's problems stem from poor self-image.
** The times when Peter got drunk and acted like a fool:
*** The time he got drunk off the communion wine at church and remarked that Jesus must have been wasted 24 hours a day.
*** The time at the ice cream parlor when he had ''one lick'' of butter rum ice cream and passed out.
*** The time he had an Irish coffee when they went to see ''Philadelphia'', causing to laugh at Tom Hanks saying "I have AIDS" (to which the rest of the family give him a DeathGlare).
** The accountants cracking adding machines in Peter's head after he moans about his hangover. One of them wonders about the outside world, and the other tells him "That's dangerous thinking".
** Peter's attempts at getting another job:
*** His stint as a spokesperson for Cuckoo Puffs has him flub his line no less than ''25 times''.
*** His gig as a sneeze guard for the salad bar, during which he ''points a gun'' at the woman who was about to sneeze, telling her to "take it outside".
*** His attempt at a talent show has him lose to the Von Trapp Family Singers, which Peter calls bullshit on, only to be drowned out by applause.
** One of Peter's lies that he's afraid of Lois finding out about is that he didn't really stand up to a tank in Tiananmen Square. During the standoff with the tank, he remarked "Screw this, I just came here to buy some fireworks!" and leaves.
** Brian warns Peter that if he doesn't tell Lois the truth soon, she'll figure out where Peter has really been all day. Answer: standing in the living room, disguised as a lamp.
