Recap / American Dad S 13 E 16 Daesong Heavy Industries II Return To Innocence

Go To

Picking up where the previous episode left off, the Smiths are left afloat on a massive tanker.


Tropes:

  • Adam and Eve Plot: Stan and Francine lose their memories and essentially become the biblical couple while on the deserted island.
  • Nice Job Breaking It, Hero: Jeff, Jeff, Jeff. He steps away from the temperature gauge to partake in Roger's song, which causes the ship to explode. He also tries directing takeoffs and landings on the aircraft carrier, leading to a number of crashes and fatalities. Finally, he tells the admiral to blow up the island, killing the narrator.
  • Oh, Crap!: Both Steve and the wolf become scared when they see that Roger is going insane.
  • Shout-Out: Roger's song is based on a series of commercials that Kathie Lee Gifford did for Carnival Cruises in the 80s.
  • Yank the Dog's Chain: Arguably an example carried on from the previous episode. Steve finally stands up for himself to defend the inaccuracies of the Bible... and the resultant situation ends with him first being stranded alone on a potential suicide mission with his family, then stuck on a rowboat with Roger, who could care less if he dies, and a feral wolf, nearly dying several times over from the wolf trying to attack them and the severe sunburn he gets. It would be a miracle that Steve didn't proceed to shelter himself from existence considering the, appropriately, near-godly amount of trauma he suffers for that one move.
