* CharlieAndTheChocolateParody: The first half. This is notable as one Peter drinks even more Pawtucket Patriot beer than usual attempting to find a hidden silver scroll and win a tour of the few ''Factory'' brewery (many others die of alcohol poisoning trying to win the contest). On the big day, Joe is kicked out by the Chumba Wumbas before the tour begins since the brewery does not have wheelchair ramps; later Peter and Brian get kicked out when they steal beer designed not to go flat and wind up having to fart (rather than burp) to escape doom...though Peter requests one more Chumba Wumba song before he goes. Notably, this spoof has direct parodies that directly spoofs the of songs from the 1971 film, rather than bringing suspiciously similar-sounding pastiches. As the Chumba Wumbas see Joe off:
