Line #9 Recap/FamilyGuyS6E2MovinOutBriansSong


1	Brian moves into an apartment with Jillian and Stewie tags along to help pay the rent. Meanwhile, Meg and Chris get at each other's throats when the latter gets a job at Carl's gas station.
2	----
3	!Examples:
4	* AgeGapRomance: After dumping Brian, Jillian finds a new soul mate in Mayor Adam West, who is basically 30 years older than she is.
5	* {{Bowdlerization}}:
6	** The extended version of the episode with the fake promo of ''WesternAnimation/TheSimpsons'' that had Quagmire raping Marge and soon having relations with her to the point of murdering the entire Simpsons family is cut from the TV version (FOX and syndication, not the Creator/AdultSwim version) because the FOX censors thought it went too far.
7	** In the final scene of the episode, Chris says "Welcome home, douchebag" on FOX. On DVD, he instead says "Welcome home, asshole".
8	* BreakTheHaughty: The entire episode is one for Brian. He moves in with Jillian to an apartment, not to have a committed relationship, but to prove to Lois that he is capable of having one, only for it to backfire in his face. That and he only stayed in his relationship only for sexual reasons, prompting her to leave him. Not only that, but his novel 'Faster Than The Speed of Love' being a pretentious rip-off of 2 of the ''Film/IronEagle'' movies end up getting mocked, not only in this episode, but later ones as well.
9	* DidntThinkThisThrough:
10	** Brian moves in with Jillian to show Lois he can have a committed relationship, but he soon realizes he won't be able to pay for the rent on his salary.
11	** Bucky LaGrange's baseball team putting him at second base, despite LaGrange not having any arms. [[SurprisinglyRealisticOutcome They soon discover]] that ground balls turn into errors because LaGrange can't catch the ball, and "he hasn't had a hit in ever" because he can't swing a bat. Despite this and an abundance of minor league second basemen with two arms, his team [[HereWeGoAgain continues to play him at second base]].
12	* {{Foreshadowing}}: The fictional commercial about the fictional made-for-television film Men Are Terrible and Will Hurt You Because This Is Lifetime is a telling what will happen in the episode.
13	* FreeRangeChildren: Peter and Lois are apparently oblivious to the fact that their one-year-old son temporarily moved in with Brian and Jillian in order to pay their rent.
14	* MeanBoss: Carl, the Mini-Mart owner, proves to be one towards Meg. He reneges on a promise he made to her for a promotion, prefers Chris to her, fires her when she complains to him, and is only willing to re-hire her when Chris threatens to withdraw from their {{Seinfeldian Conversation}}s about movies.
15	* PetTheDog: Lois ends up being empathetic to Meg after she gets discharged from the gas station and even talks Chris into getting Carl to re-hire her.
16	* SeinfeldianConversation:
17	** Peter and Jillian have one about ''Film/FerrisBuellersDayOff'', with Peter saying that it should have been called "Ferris Bueller's Day ''On''" because he did all the stuff he wanted to do that day.
18	** Carl and Chris engage in several lengthy discussions about various movies.
19	* ShoutOut:
20	** The episode's title references the song "Movin' Out (Anthony's Song)" by Billy Joel and the Creator/JamesCaan TV drama/sports film, ''Film/BriansSong''.
21	** Brian's book 'Faster Than the Speed of Love' is a huge knock-off to the ''Film/IronEagle'' movies.
22	** Also, at the beginning, Brian, Jillian, and Peter mention ''Theatre/DisneyOnIce''.
23	** There's also that scene in the park where Peter and Jillian discuss the film ''Film/FerrisBuellersDayOff''.
24	** Basically any movie Chris and Carl talk about in the episode's side-plot.
25	* TakeThat: Stewie disses movies with Creator/VinceVaughn in them at the episode's start.
26	* ThirdWheel: Stewie becomes one for Brian and Jillian when he moves in with them, culminating in the end of their romance.
