[edit] What is the opening scene referencing?

Man: "Billiam, are you there?"

Man: "Stewie! What the devil are you doing here?"

Stewie: "Billiam sent me. He wanted me to tell you I killed him."

Stewie: "Give me the other half of the amulet! I don't think you'll be making it to Marrakesh."

Stewie: "No! Jeffrey, take the 9:00 p.m. To Hounslow out of your mouth!"

This has got to be referencing SOMETHING, but what? The article speculates it's Murder on the Orient Express, but is that really it?

Other interesting facts that may be relevant:

• Marrakesh is a city in Morocco
• Marrakesh Express is a song by Crosby, Stills, and Nash.
• Hounslow is a town near london.

I don't know what to make of the amulet or the name "Billiam". Any thoughts? Alecmconroy 21:50, 17 October 2005 (UTC)

That's a good question. Perhaps we could find a movie buff specializing in old movies. Cromulent Kwyjibo 22:20, 18 October 2005 (UTC)

The name Billiam, a cross between William and the same shortened name Bill? JayKeaton 12:20, 11 October 2006 (UTC)

One of Family Guy's producers is named Billiam, Billiam Coronel. --67.168.68.91 03:52, 11 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Do I Khrushchev?

What does that mean?

I believe it's supposed to be a pun on "Do I have to?". Doesn't work quite as well as the other Soviet Leader puns. -92.226.219.177 (talk) 00:29, 24 April 2008 (UTC)

Communist leader puns, Marx was dead long before the Soviets came about JW (talk) 12:55, 17 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Stewie and the toy letter cubes

I'm not quite sure I get the meaning of the last phrase " Ride that pony". Well...I have my suspicions but if someone could clarify... -92.226.219.177 (talk) 00:31, 24 April 2008 (UTC)

It's what you probably think it is. Unsure of how to put it into words, urbandictionary had two entries: "to have sex over and over" and "To do a dance in a galloping way with a spank spank move and some air lasso. Often in a circle, but can be stationary." JW (talk) 12:52, 17 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:FGDammitJanet.jpg

Image:FGDammitJanet.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

[edit] Tomb Raider

I'm removing from the cultural references "In the black market scene there is a woman picking up and looking at two pistols and wearing sunglasses a green tanktop and tan shorts. This is most likely a Lara Croft Tomb Raider reference." I just watched the scene a couple times, pausing to look at all the people, and there is no such person in the black market. The only woman has a white shirt and green pants and is looking at a shotgun. JW (talk) 12:55, 17 May 2008 (UTC)

Another reason for deleting this is because it says "most likely" terms like that prove that it's a speculation which doesn't belong here. TheBlazikenMaster (talk) 20:48, 17 May 2008 (UTC)
