Crimes and Meg's Demeanor
Episode 8 of Family Guy season 16 (S16E08), the 297th Family Guy episode overall. Written by Mike Desilets and directed by Greg Colton. First broadcast on 3 December 2017.
Story
Meg starts drinking at a party held by pupils from her school. Alcohol makes her more outgoing, which worries Peter and pleases him in equal measure. Brian is meanwhile confined at home with an injured leg, the result of what he did at the end of the previous episode. He comes to believe that Principal Shepherd has killed his wife. Stewie is recruited to help him prove it, in a story modelled on Rear Window.
