* NegatedMomentOfAwesome: Meg's moment of berating her family for their abusive behaviour is definitely warranted and they certainly had it coming after what they've been doing to her. It's a shame she decides to ''apologise'' to ''them'' for making them feel bad so the family can function again by making her their lightning rod.

Not Trivia. Adding back.

Added DiffLines:

* {{Bowdlerization}}: The following scenes were altered between the DVD version and the TV version:
** The family telling Meg not to finger-bang anyone: On DVD, Lois says, "Why don't you go finger-bang yourself." On TV, it was toned down to "Why don't you go do that to yourself."
** Meg complaining about how the family treats her has an extra scene on the DVD version of her pointing out that Brian is the [[TokenGoodTeammate only one who doesn't treat her like crap]], but Brian is too high to respond and Stewie warns Brian not to get involved.
** The cutaway of the Italian man and the black woman fighting and the whole thing set up like a nature documentary: The part about a group of Hasidic Jews flying away like birds has the narrator's line on the TV version as, "Sensing the impending battle, a flock of Jews flies quickly away, as avoiding confrontation is their best chance for survival." On DVD, the line is basically the same, except "their" is changed to "the Jews'".
** The scene after the nature documentary cutaway on DVD is Brian (still high on shrooms) staring outside the window and commenting on the "emotional storm" in the house, and Stewie comforting Brian as he continues to trip.
** Meg pointing out Lois' past sexual exploits: On TV, Meg says Lois let [[Music/{{Kiss}} Gene Simmons]] and UsefulNotes/BillClinton "go to town on her". On DVD, the line was "...climb inside her."
** Chris calling Meg a "fucking bitch" has "fucking" bleeped out on TV.

Added DiffLines:

* OverlyLongGag: The scene where Peter makes "dad noises" lasts for about a minute, and it's basically a repeat of the London Gentlemen's Club scene from an earlier episode with Peter in place of the three men.

* {{Foreshadowing}}: Meg saying that she never wants to see Lois again when she turns 18 could be considered subtle foreshadowing to "[[Recap/FamilyGuyS10E10MegAndQuagmire Meg and Quagmire]]", where Meg turns 18 and is just about to have sex and presumably run away with Quagmire before she's stopped by her parents.

* BecauseYouCanCope: Tragically, this is what ends up happening at the end. Because the rest of the family can't function without somebody to routinely abuse, Meg chooses to stay with them because she can put up with it better than any of them can.

Added DiffLines:

* DelayedReaction: Peter finally realises that all of the things Meg is saying to him are criticisms only after Meg calls him a waste of a man. Everything else before that went over his head.
