Story
New York tourists, known as leafers, are overrunning Quahog. Lois takes up taijutsu so that she can fight back against them. She then worries that her violent behaviour is a bad influence on the rest of the family. The Griffins try anger management, but the classes only leave everyone angrier than before. They end up settling matters with a full-scale brawl among themselves to work the anger out of their systems.
