History Recap / FamilyGuyS8E14PeterAssment

Peter becomes a paparazzo, and a celebrity punching and breaking his glasses leads to Angela (Peter's boss at Pawtucket Brewery, voiced by Creator/CarrieFisher) to hit on him during work. Meanwhile, Stewie gets stage fright during a school play about the Terri Schiavo controversy.

* AnAesop: Men can be sexually harassed, women can be sexual predators, and sexual harassment is sexual harassment, regardless of gender, and needs to be taken seriously.

* BrokenAesop: The episode attempts to discuss the double standard of [[DoubleStandardRapeFemaleOnMale a man being assaulted by a woman]]. Peter is repeatedly demeaned and not taken seriously when Angela assaults him, but the episode never actually says that these characters are in the wrong for dismissing Peter, and when Peter finally stands up for himself, he ends up having to ''help'' Angela after she attempts suicide. Because of this, the episode's plot and themes ultimately ''enforce'' the harmful double standard instead of criticising it.

* AllJewsAreCheapskates: In the end, Peter got Mort to substitute for him for only two dollars.

* {{Hypocrite}}: Quagmire tells Peter, a married heterosexual man, that refusing Angela will mark him as gay, yet he himself refuses Angela after [[InformedDeformity seeing her]]. When Peter finally goes through with the deed, he then ''criticizes Peter for cheating on Lois''.

* DoubleStandardRapeFemaleOnMale: Angela lusts for Peter after seeing him without his glasses and forces him to do lewd acts for her, such as wearing skimpy clothing and making him [[HandInTheHole put his hand in a hole in the wall]]. Peter doesn't give any form of consent and is forced to do these things under the threat of being fired, and his friends and family show no concern for him when he tells them about Angela's behaviour. It escalates to a point where she demands he come to her house and tries to force him into having sex with her, despite his clear refusal and horror, and even after this, Peter ultimately ''sympathises'' with Angela's loneliness and has to sleep with her in order to save her from committing suicide. In real life, it's completely illegal and morally reprehensible for employers to solicit sex from employees, regardless of gender.

* BrokenAesop:
** If someone is sexually harassing you, it's probably because they're lonely and need love.
** If you're a man getting sexually harassed by a woman, you're a baby if you don't just take it. Also, you're gay if you turn her down, even if you have a wife. To prove that you're not gay, cheat on your wife, and face criticism from the same people who pressured you into the affair in the first place.
** All men are as sex-crazed as Quagmire and love being sexually harassed by women.

%%* AxCrazy: Angela.

* {{Hypocrite}}: Quagmire tells Peter, a married heterosexual man, that refusing Angela will mark him as gay, yet he himself refuses Angela after [[InformedDeformity seeing her]]. When Peter finally goes through with the deed, he then criticizes Peter for cheating on Lois.

* PitySex: It's pretty much what happens to Angela in the end. Peter feels bad for her because she feels "lonely" for not being with someone for years. As you can imagine, no one is thrilled with this trope after Angela spent half the episode sexually harassing Peter and even tried to ''rape him''.

* TheUnapologetic: Angela doesn't apologise for her actions towards Peter and she succeeds in having [[PitySex pity sex]] with Peter.

* AxCrazy: Angela.

* DrivenToSuicide: Angela tries killing herself by locking herself in her garage and leaving her car's motor on.

* MortonsFork: According to Quagmire, if Peter sleeps with Angela then he's committing adultery. If he doesn't, then he's gay for not sleeping with her.

* TooSoon and WereStillRelevantDammit: InUniverse. Chris and Brian wonder if doing a play on the Terri Schiavo case is too soon or too late.
