"The Juice Is Loose"

"The Juice is Loose" is the ninth episode of the seventh season of the animated television series Family Guy. It originally aired on March 15, 2009 on Fox. In the episode, Peter cashes in an old raffle ticket from 1989 and wins a golf outing with O. J. Simpson. When he befriends Simpson and brings him home to meet the family, the residents of Quahog are not as welcoming of the infamous running back and try to force him out of town.

The episode was written by Andrew Goldberg and directed by Cyndi Tang. According to Neilsen ratings, the episode was viewed in 7.21 million homes in its original airing. The episode received mixed reviews for its use of a three-minute long live-action segment of Conway Twitty. Series regular Mike Henry provided the voice of O.J. Simpson, and Cathy Cahlin Ryan guest starred as Fred Goldman's wife in a cutaway.

According to an opening title card, this is one of several recently discovered "lost episodes" found in the Griffin family basement; it takes place in March 2007, prior to O. J. Simpson's prison sentence in December 2008.

Lois goes to her book club and forces Peter to babysit Stewie. Instead, he invites Cleveland, Quagmire and Joe and they all play Truth or Dare, which results in a make out session between Cleveland and Joe. After a fiasco involving Stewie attempting to fix their satellite TV, Stewie ends up getting stuck on the roof, due to Peter's lack of supervision. Brian tries to tell Peter but he does not listen and instead reads a magazine featuring Nick Jonas. After a pillow fight that turned violent, Lois comes in, furious at Peter. Peter attempts to go fix the satellite himself, at which point he comes across a raffle ticket from 1989 that he had forgotten to cash in, winning him a chance to play golf with O. J. Simpson. Unaware of Simpson's accusation of murdering two people, he grows fearful after Joe convinces him to walk around town with the song Dust in the Wind while thinking about the murders. Ultimately deciding to cash in the ticket, his friends suggest he spy on Simpson during the golf game and try to get him to confess to the murders. Hooking Peter to a wire, his cover is blown when the device shorts out. Simpson laments having lost a chance of escaping the accusation. Feeling guilty, Peter decides that Simpson is actually innocent, and decides to befriend him.

Peter brings Simpson home with him to meet the family, who are initially less tolerant of Simpson than Peter. Deciding to let Simpson stay at their house, word soon gets out of Simpson's presence in Quahog, causing Peter to decide to throw a house party and help everyone else get to know him better. Later that day, Peter and Simpson are met with an angry mob instead, intent on driving the latter out of town. Desperate for a place to live without being bothered, Simpson makes a heartfelt speech, professing that he is just as imperfect as everyone else, causing the residents of Quahog to apologize. A split second later, however, Simpson takes out a knife and kills three people before running off. The mob goes on to chase after Simpson, as the Griffins look on, with Peter indifferently declaring, "I guess he did do it."
