 She commented that it was "a bit weird" that the show was focusing on Stewie's desire to kill Lois, since in the last couple of seasons the Stewie and Brian dynamic had taken precedence, while Lois was being more foil to Peter than Stewie.She felt that most of the cutaway humor felt familiar and that there was no real moment that would deserve any callback status in future episodes.She did praise the cliffhanger, stating that she was intrigued about how the storyline would turn out.
