Biography[]
George comes back to Quahog to see his old friend, Brian Griffin. George gets Brian and Stewie Griffin into his helicopter so he can fly them back to his mansion. George then explains that he gained his success by working hard, working as a tech entrepreneur, writing eleven best-selling books, and being an NBC executive who suggested their company make tons of Chicago-themed programming. George says that the way he was able to stay dedicated to his goals was by getting neutered. The removal of his testicles got rid of all his distractions and allowed him to focus on being a success. He convinces Brian to go and get himself neutered. When Brian is strapped to the neutering table, George admits that he was never neutered and just said that to trick Brian into getting neutered. Brian freaks out and tries to escape, but he is restrained and strapped to the operating table. George explains he's getting revenge on Brian for abandoning him when they were kids, after he was picked up by Peter Griffin. Brian attempts to lie and weasel his way out by claiming that was going to come back for him, and then Trump happened and stuff. By this time, Stewie had read one of George's books, wherein he detailed how he was going to circumcise Brian Griffin, who publicly slandered him in a book. Stewie rushes to the animal hospital to go save Brian Griffin. When he gets there, he knocks the scalpel out of the doctor's hands and threatens George with it. Brian escapes, but one of his testicles is already removed and eaten by George. Brian convinces George to stop mutilating him by saying that his abandonment is what led to his success. Moved, George leaves Brian alone and flies off in his helicopter once more, never to see him again. Still, however, Brian lacks one of testicles and has to replace it with a jingle bell from a court jester's hat, giving him a ringing crotch for the rest of the episode.
