Continuity mistake: The family is standing outside the gate of Brown University, and their car is on the left, parked just off to the side behind Meg. In the next shot, the car vanishes. You can tell where it was supposed to be by the position of the white lines on the road, meaning no, it's not just off camera. Where the line is shown, the front of the car should be visible behind Meg. (00:01:19)

Continuity mistake: After Peter tries to bribe the admission at the University, he, Lois, and Meg sit down on a waiting couch as Lois says she had friends who got shot at her old school. There is a painting of a yellow building on the wall above and behind them. It has 8 windows at the top. In the next shot, it just has 7 windows at the top. Also, the bushes and road are drawn a little differently with less road visible through the bottom bush. (00:02:08)

Continuity mistake: Stewie enters the Chemistry Lab at the university and is stopped by a professor. In the background is an anatomy diagram of a human body. Between shots, lots of the detail disappears, including a blue circle, some organs, several lines of text, and the orange and green circles change size, shape and position. (00:03:24)

Continuity mistake: When the university dean is looking at Meg's transcript, the folder of other papers he has on his desk suddenly moves back with more of the large white paper underneath it moving. And the text boxes at the top of the paper he's holding vanish in a closer shot. (00:04:31)

Continuity mistake: When Meg is telling the university dean that she is president of the Luke Perry Fan Club, Peter is suddenly no longer beside her. Also, the distance between her and Lois grows, the chairs they are sitting on suddenly become smaller, the bookshelf behind them suddenly becomes much more shallow, like it's cardboard and it's wider, and the blue books on the left of the screen change labels.

Continuity mistake: When Neil goes to wash his retainer at the water fountain, in the first shot there is no button on the fountain, but it appears in the close-up. Also, between shots, the corner of the cork board moves further away from the fountain. And the guy holding the camera next to Neil goes from hands on camera to the camera just dangling around his neck with his hands down. (00:06:25)

Continuity mistake: When Meg walks up to Neil's desk, there is a cup of water on the side of the desk next to the paper, and Neil puts his hands on the paper near the edge. Then in the next shot, his hands move to the centre of the paper and now the cup of water is also on the paper. (00:06:34)

Continuity mistake: Lois takes away the box of Fig Newtons from Stewie and sets it on the counter in the kitchen. In the first shot, the open side of the box is facing towards what would be the left if you're facing it from the kitchen, then in the next shot the box is turned around so the open side is facing the right.

Continuity mistake: After Peter sees the magazine with Luke Perry on it and gets an idea, he stands up. Suddenly, the family couch, that was seen in several shots before, is right up against the wall where the table should be and the house front door is missing. The circular rug at the foot of the couch is missing. (00:11:33 - 00:12:19)

Continuity mistake: After Meg gives Brian a copy of her report on Mayor West, he reacts to it and Peter takes a copy. Suddenly, the couch they are sitting on becomes longer with more space between Peter and Brian. Brian goes from sitting in the middle of one of the cushions to on the crack between two of them.

Baby Not On Board - S7-E4

Plot hole: Stewie gets out of the car seat and goes back to bed, leaving the blanket at the bottom of the seat. When they get to New York, Lois goes to get him out and realises he's gone. But when they started the trip the blanket was covering the entire seat to make it look like Stewie was still in it. So who ever "covered" him up knew he wasn't in the seat before they set off.

When You Wish Upon a Weinstein - S3-E22

Peter Griffin: You better watch who you're calling a child Lois. Because if I'm a child then you know what that makes you? A paedophile, and I'll be damned if I'm gonna stand here and be lectured by a pervert.

Trivia: A Quahog is another name for a clam, thus all the jokes and places in town (like the drunken clam bar) the show makes reference about.

Chosen answer: It's a play on words. Instead of eggs Benedict, he says Megs Benedict.

Ssiscool

Answer: It's because the sauce Carter drinks is the same sauce they put on eggs Benedict, so when he puked on her she was covered in the sauce.
