1	'''Airdate:''' January 15, 2012
2
3	Brian dates a woman who's blind and hates dogs. Meanwhile, Peter tries to adjust to walking down the stairs (which have been replaced after Stewie got a splinter).
4	----
5	!!Tropes:
6	* AesopAmnesia: Kate dumps Brian not for being a dog but for his dishonesty...so Brian fakes a new identity to get back with her.
7	* AllMenArePerverts: Although Brian is a dog, he pretends to cough while he takes photos of Kate shirtless with his iPhone.
8	* {{Bowdlerization}}: Not only does the TV version bleep out all the times Peter curses whenever he falls down the stairs, but a cutaway mocking the Jaycee Dugard kidnapping and rape case (Peter telling Lois that people live in weird places, like his cousin, Jaycee Dugard Griffin, followed by a shot of a Peter-looking girl in a shack with a baby in a cage telling a mean old man "My belly hurts again!") was cut for being [[DistancedFromCurrentEvents poorly timed]]. The DVD and the Netflix streaming versions have the swearing and the offending cutaway uncut (along with some scenes cut for time, like Brian tricking his blind girlfriend into believing a garage with a boombox in it is a concert hall).
9	* ClusterFBomb: Whenever Peter falls down the stairs (which is [[ClusterBleepBomb bleeped out]] on TV but not on DVD and Netflix).
10	* {{Jerkass}}: Brian tricks Kate (a blind woman) into dating him despite her hatred of dogs, and when she breaks up with him, he takes Stewie's advice to change his voice to date Kate again. Even before she finds out he's a dog, Brian takes advantage of Kate's blindness to make her believe that Brian is doing things for her that he isn't (i.e. tricking her into thinking he had taken her on a trip to Paris with nothing but an escalator and a croissant).
11	* NoSympathy: Lois doesn't care about Meg being pinned under a roof beam, and is more concerned with replacing the stairs because Stewie got one splinter.
12	* ParentalNeglect: A large wooden beam was shown to have fallen right onto Meg. Unfortunately for the poor girl, nobody rushed to help her, and even two days later, [[NoSympathy Lois told Brian to basically ignore her]] and focus on Stewie who just got a splinter.
13	* RunningGag: Peter falling down the stairs and [[ClusterFBomb cursing like a madman]].
14	* StaircaseTumble: Peter goes through this four times as a result of the new stairs.
