This is probably my favorite episode of American Dad. After a series of fake vacations that Stan implants into his family's memory by placing them in tanks from the CIA filled with a green goo like substance, they try to go on an actual vacation that Francine desperately wants. Everything seems to be going well until she begins to think it's a fake vacation like the rest and completely trashes the cruise ship before jumping overboard because she think it will wake her out of the goo. They end up on an island running for their lives until they are trapped in a cave where they finally get to have a Sunday night family dinner which is all Francine really wanted in the first place. Just wait until you see what they eat! The Roger side-story is also great. 10 out of 10 stars!

The One With The Fake Vacation Then The Real Vacation...

Warning: Spoilers
Newspaper Headline: Al Gore honors Carlos Mencia for recycling jokes. This is one of my all time favorite American Dad episodes. Actually, it's in the top five, at least. In this episode, Francine discovers that all the family vacations she has been on with Stan, Steve, Hayley, Roger and Klaus, have all been fake. Stan implanted the vacation memories into their heads, using CIA technology, so he can have some downtime alone. Francine is furious and demands a proper vacation. So they do. They go on a cruise where things go wrong. Obviously, they had to go wrong, otherwise it would be a boring episode. Meanwhile, Roger makes a huge effort to be able to cry on cue. I love this episode. It's so funny. Overall, I give this episode a definite 10 out of 10.
