The episode won an Annie Award for "Writing in an Animated Television Production." ==Plot== Mayor Adam West deploys the entire Quahog Police Department to Cartagena, Colombia to search for Elaine Wilder (a fictional character from the film ''Romancing the Stone'' which he was watching), leaving Joe behind (as he was not deployed due to his disability and the fact that parts of Cartagena aren't wheelchair-accessible) with the police station's skeleton crew. Peter, Cleveland and Quagmire join the department to assist Joe. Meanwhile, Meg threatens to commit suicide because she does not have a date for her Junior Prom. Even her backup boy turned her down by shooting his little brother and having to attend his funeral. As a last resort, Brian agrees to take her to the prom. He gets drunk there, defends Meg by insulting Connie D'Amico about her inevitable future, and the two make out. After the dance, Meg begins to think Brian is her boyfriend, despite Brian saying he has no feelings for her and citing his already existing relationship with Jillian. Meg develops an obsession with Brian, even baking him a pie and using her hair as one of the ingredients. Stewie arrives and sits next to Brian and asks if he can have some pie. He then asks for the "Cool Hwhip" (this is the first in a series of occasions where Stewie puts emphasis on the "h" sound in a word starting with "wh"). Brian soon works up the courage to tell Lois that he and Meg kissed. Lois gets angry at the news, and orders Brian to dump Meg. Later on, Meg knocks Brian out, puts him in the trunk of his car and drives away. Chris tells Lois that he saw this, so Lois, Peter, Cleveland, Joe and Quagmire track them down at the Harrington Hotel. When they arrive, they see Meg has tied Brian up with packaging tape and is about to rape Brian. Lois tells Meg that she is not thinking right, although Meg insists that she has never been more sure of anything in her life. Lois struggles to explain and says Meg does not know what she needs, and then Quagmire says (in an erotic tone) "I know what she needs... Bring her by my house around 8:30 tonight I'll take care of her." This implies that he will try to take advantage of Meg and when she arrives at Quagmire's house, it seems even more likely; he tells her to sit down and says "Soon it'll all become clear", puts on seductive music, dims the lights, strips down to a speedo and sits down beside her; but suddenly, Quagmire (uncharacteristically) begins to have a serious heart-to-heart talk with Meg, telling her that her entire life is still ahead of her and she should not be in such a hurry to grow up before assuring her that she will find the right person one day. To help Meg, Quagmire gives her his copy of ''The Missing Piece'' to help give her a better perception of things, and sends her away feeling much better. He then walks into his bedroom, where two of his one-night stands await with an array of sex toys, and it turns out that all of Quagmire's seemingly erotic antics were actually in preparation for this tryst. One of the women asks Quagmire if he has the "hwhip" (with emphasis on the "h") and Quagmire responds with disbelief. During the credits, Tom Tucker reports that the Quahog Police have called off the search for Elaine Wilder and are heading back to Quahog. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Barely Legal (Family Guy)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
