Plot

Stewie designs a robot to kill Lois which backfires horribly.

Why It PeTerminates

1. The episode is a very creative parody of the Terminator franchise.
2. The episode has a lot of amazing visuals, especially in the future scenes.
3. The episode is very action-packed and filled with suspense.
4. The episode is filled with a lot of hilarious moments:
   • Stewie's "hand turkey" drawing coming to life.
   • Peter's friends trying to get Terminator Peter to say "I'll be back"
   • The scene where Brian meets his future self.
5. In addition to the comedic tone, the episode also has a nice horror vibe to it.
6. Since there are not a lot of cutaway gags, the episode flows very well.
7. Hilarious references to Rick and Morty and Big Mouth.
8. All of the characters are surprisingly likable in this episode, and the flanderized ones don’t show their flanderized selves like they usually do.
9. The animation is better than before since it is fluid and is very fast paced.

Bad Qualities

1. The scene where Brian and Stewie kiss is quite uncomfortable and goes on for too long, even though it was just to kill the other Terminators.
2. The scene where Brian and Stewie breaks the fourth wall by explaining what's happening offscreen, which feels a bit lazy.

Reception

The episode has received positive reception from fans and critics, with an 8.2/10 on IMDb.
