• Stewie Griffin : Hey, you know, that was really cool how you told us what "Snowbird" was about.

  Anne Murray : Well, you know, that's just the way I always interpreted the song. But I suppose Gene probably could have explained it better than I.

  Stewie Griffin : Who's Gene?

  Anne Murray : Gene MacLellan. He wrote the song.

  Stewie Griffin : I see. But you wrote all your other songs, right?

  Anne Murray : No, all of my songs were written by other people. As a singer, I've been blessed to interpret the works of many gifted, sensitive songwriters.

  Stewie Griffin : Oh. So you're just a big fucking liar?

  [she gets up] 

  Stewie Griffin : Sit back down.

  Brian Griffin : [returning from the bathroom]  All right, come on, Stewie, let's go home...

  [seeing him tying Anne up] 

  Brian Griffin : Stewie, what the hell are you doing?

  Stewie Griffin : She's a fraud, Brian. A fraud! She didn't write any of her songs.

  Brian Griffin : Well, so, that's the case with a lot of singers. It's a very common industry practice.

  Stewie Griffin : Well, then, you're all a bunch of frauds, aren't you? A bunch of frauds and charlatans.

  [taking out a gun] 

  Stewie Griffin : You want to be a puppet? Then sing for your life, puppet. Come on. "Spread your tiny wings and fly away!"

  [her singing is muffled by her gag] 

  Stewie Griffin : Come on, Anne, sing along. You know it. You didn't write it, but you know it, bitch.

• Brian Griffin : So, Miss Murray, the reason we came is that we have a question about "Snowbird."

  Stewie Griffin : It's about a relationship, right?

  Brian Griffin : No, no, it's obviously about the fear of growing old.

  Anne Murray : You know, I think you're both kind of right. I guess I always thought it was about human limitation, both mental and physical.

  Stewie Griffin : Okay, that... that just blew my face off.

  Anne Murray : Well, I hope that helps.

  Brian Griffin : It does. Thank you so much, Miss Murray. This has been terrific. Hey, uh, before we go, do you mind if I use your restroom? It was a long drive up here.

  Anne Murray : No, go right ahead.

  Stewie Griffin : [as Brian leaves]  We should do something without him sometime. Do you like tapas? Someone invited me out for that once. I thought they said topless, so I was like

  [high-pitched] 

  Stewie Griffin : "What?"

  Anne Murray : That's a good story.

• Anne Murray : Hi, can I help you?

  Brian Griffin : Hi, Miss Murray, my name's Brian Griffin. Uh, first of all, I just wanna tell you what a huge fan I am.

  Anne Murray : Aw, that's very sweet of you.

  Stewie Griffin : And I'm Stewie. I'm the one who sent you the vibrators.

  Anne Murray : Well, I'm glad you enjoy my music. Would you like to come in?

  Stewie Griffin : We'd love to.

  [she lets them in] 

  Stewie Griffin : Wow, nothing says success like free on a Tuesday at 3:00 p.m. I'll get there.
