Watch American Dad Season 1 Episode 22 With Friends Like Steve’s Online
When Steve tires of hanging out with his dad, Stan discovers that Steve’s mentally retarded friend Barry is actually interested in his stories. Stan then gives Barry all the attention, even encouraging him to stop taking “vitamins” that he has been taking every few hours. Steve quickly becomes jealous of Barry, but then notices an alarming change in his friend’s behavior, as Barry becomes a Gary Oldman-sounding evil genius. Barry frames Steve for breaking Stan’s prized commemorative plate collection and convinces Stan and Francine to send their son to a youth penal camp. He then buries Francine in the back yard and pulls a pistol on Stan, holding him hostage.
Meanwhile, Roger joins a college fraternity as a pledge, encouraging Hayley’s group to study the subculture. The girls quickly become drunk, however, and only interested in partying. Afterward, a hung-over Hayley is ashamed she didn’t get the Eskimo studies program she originally wanted, though she does sleep with an Eskimo. When Roger learns that after a party, pledges clean while frat brothers sleep, he quits the fraternity.
