"High School English" is the seventh episode of the fifteenth season of the animated sitcom Family Guy, and the 276th episode overall. It aired on Fox in the United States on November 20, 2016, and is written by Ted Jessup and directed by Steve Robertson.
The episode starts with Peter imprisoned in a library after driving into a rich person's mansion. While he waits for the police to come and arrest him, he starts to read classical tales to the audience.
On Long Island during the summer of 1922, Nick Carraway (portrayed by Stewie Griffin) rents a small summer house. He soon encounters a party at a mansion that belongs to Jay Gatsby (portrayed by Brian Griffin). Gatsby meets Nick and they go down to the dock where he says that he is in love with a girl named Daisy Buchanan (portrayed by Lois). Nick states that Daisy is his cousin and sets up a meeting between him and Gatsby in his house. Gatsby arrives and takes Daisy to his mansion and impresses her with his stuff.
Soon, Gatsby is invited by Daisy's husband Tom (portrayed by Peter Griffin) to his and Daisy's home for dinner, with Tom's friend Jordan Baker (portrayed by Meg Griffin) and Nick also in attendance. Nick narrates that the part about him going out with Jordan which will be left out of this version. Tom insults Gatsby and soon they all go on a drive across the city. Tom stops at a gas station run by George (portrayed by Joe Swanson) where he sleeps with George's wife Myrtle (Bonnie Swanson).
At a motel, Tom tries to one-up Gatsby, but Gatsby tells Tom that Daisy loves her and not him. Soon after, Daisy decides to leave Tom for Gatsby, disappointing Tom. But when Daisy drives back to Gatsby's home drunk, she accidentally runs over Myrtle.
As Nick and Gatsby are swimming the next day, George is in the bushes where he shoots Gatsby. Nick subsequently narrates the end.
Peter escapes the library and hides in the attic to avoid the police officers when they come to find him. Before he introduces the second story, he finds a chest with a chef's hat in it upon being unable to find a pirate hat in it. When he puts it on and acts like a pirate, the cops hear him.
Huckleberry Finn (portrayed by Peter Griffin) and Tom Sawyer (portrayed by Chris Griffin) are best friends living in 19th Century Missouri. Finn lives with his nagging adoptive mom Widow Douglas (portrayed by Lois Griffin), so he moves in with abusive drunk dad (portrayed by Stewie Griffin). After taking a whip from his dad, Finn decides to fake his own death by murdering a pig (portrayed by Brian Griffin) much to his objection as his character was killed in the last story. Huck then forgets why he killed the pig.
