    Brian becomes a substitute teacher at Chris' school after his teacher wins the lottery. When Brian is moved to teach a class of troubled kids, Chris falls in love with his new teacher, Mrs. Lockhart, who promises to love Chris only if he kills her husband. When Lois finds out, she and Stewie decide to teach Chris a lesson.

    I only liked the woman's reaction to winning the lottery.

    This episode, Chris gets a new hot sub teacher, and she promises she will love him if he does her one thing: kills her husband. In the end everyone assumes Chris did when it was revealed his subs' husband was dead. Turned out to be a bear. Later, the sub, Mr.s Lockhart, runs away and starts living with the bear and putting up with him.

    A decent episode, at times too wacky, but that's not always a bad thing with comedy. I didn't like everything. My final grade would have to be about a B- or so, decent, but not greatmoreless

    The second new episode of Family Guy and it is virtually laugh-free. It was a mildly clever parody of classic film Fast Times at Ridgemont High, but I have seen better. A lot of people liked the cavemen family argument, they liked the Kevin Federline magic mirror, but I just did not like either of them or any of the cutaway scenes for the most part. This is the main problem with Family Guy nowadays and it can be traced back to this episode to show it has been a problem for years now.

    Solid installment, but it has no replay value.moreless

    When Chris's beloved teacher wins the lottery and quits, Lois suggests Brian fill in as a substitute. He enjoys the job but is moved to another class for troubled kids. When he finds the techniques used in his previous class inadequate, he tries "talking their language" but appears racist. After an angry morning, he unintentionally teaches them to aspire to low-level jobs. Brian behaves "street" in an attempt to establish a rapport with his class.Meanwhile, Chris is instantly smitten with his new teacher, Mrs. Lockheart. Lois is not pleased with this. After she and Peter talk to Mrs. Lockheart, she promises to be with Chris if he kills her husband, though he does not do it. When Lois finds the teacher's written instructions in Chris's laundry she runs to Mrs. Lockheart's home and finds the mauled body of her husband. Believing Chris is the killer, Lois and Stewie conspire to cover up the plot by dumping the body in the lake and bluffing a policeman. Back at home, the rest of the family treats Chris differently because they thought he actually killed Mrs. Lockheart's husband, until it is shown on the news that it was really Mrs. Lockheart and a bear. In the last scene Mrs. Lockheart and the bear are found in a motel, with Mrs. Lockheart all dressed up for a nice evening dinner while the bear is lying on the bed watching television. She sits down on the side of the bed while the bear taps her with his left foot and with a satirical but somewhat loving manner says "Love you," and with that the episode concludes.moreless

    A fairly decent episode like most of the early season 4 eps are, I love the beggining of this episode with the variation on the main title one of like 6 and possibly 7 they've done(road to(3), this one(1), Wistle while your with works(1), any others, I think there was.), of course Chris falling in love with his SUPER HOT teacher and Brian becomming a substitute there, I love it! I rewatched this episode 3 days ago and laughed really hard, every two seconds.

    The plots for these episodes are simple, kind of what I like(early simpsons, seinfeld and The Critic, early FG.)I don't think there was a single joke I didn't laugh at and I think this is in my top 30.moreless
