S6·E6 Padre de Familia

Episode recap

In the sixth episode of the sixth season of Family Guy, titled Padre de Familia, Peter Griffin attends a Veterans Day parade. The event inspires a surge of pro-American sentiment in him, leading him to establish an anti-immigration group. However, Peter’s perspective undergoes a significant shift when he discovers that he was actually born in Mexico.

Following this revelation, Peter faces a series of bureaucratic challenges. He finds himself unable to provide proof of his citizenship, and he fails to pass the naturalization test. Furthermore, he is unable to convince investigators that his marriage to Lois is legitimate. As a result of these complications, Peter loses his standing and is forced to take a job as a groundskeeper on his father-in-law's estate. The experience of navigating these legal and social hurdles leads Peter to change his stance, and he eventually becomes a leader in the fight for immigrant rights.
