Writer and director credits." --- # Christmas Crime Episode 10 of Family Guy season 20 (S20E10), the 379th Family Guy episode overall. Written by Steve Callaghan and directed by Mike Kim. First broadcast on 19 December 2021. ## Story Mayor West carves a nativity scene and puts it on show. Brian, sour about the commercial side of Christmas, drinks at the Drunken Clam and drives into the display, then hides the car in an airport car park. West questions the town, hires Brian to help with the search, and calls Christmas off until the guilty party is found. A tip from Stewie and a dent shaped like the infant Jesus lead to an arrest. Watching the town enjoy the day from his cell, Brian comes round to the idea that the season is about family, and West frees him, the whole thing having been staged for his benefit. Stewie's new toy, meanwhile, harvests bank details for a Chinese factory that collapses over the sums involved. ## Production and reception - The episode appeared on Hulu a few hours before it was shown on television.
