"Comfortably Numb"
by Pink Floyd
"Into Harmony's Way" is the seventh episode of the twelfth season and the 217th overall episode of the animated comedy series Family Guy. It aired on Fox in the United States and Canada on December 8, 2013, and is written by Julius Sharpe and directed by Brian Iles.
This is the only episode of the series where Brian Griffin is absent (as a result of his death in the previous episode, "Life of Brian"). He was replaced by Vinny in the episode and in the credits. This episode continues a three-episode arc depicting Brian's death, replacement and resurrection.
Quagmire asks to stay at the Griffin home after he makes eye contact with a transvestite at a bar. While hanging out with Peter, a bee makes them discover by accident that they can share a tone in harmony. After sitting down to write some songs, they go to Mort's pharmacy to get some paper and after Mort tells about his past career in music, becomes their manager and invites them to sing at the library during open mic.
During their performance, they clear the library and despair that they are not a success until Mort reveals that he put their show on JewTube (a Jewish version of YouTube) and scoring them an invitation to perform at a music festival. Their performance is a hit and they get an offer for a new manager named Ricky, dumping Mort and going on tour over Lois' objections that she needs Peter to be with the family on Thanksgiving.
Their life on the road begins to affect Peter, causing him to arbitrarily make decisions for the two of them and causes life to become stressful for Quagmire. During a performance on Conan, Quagmire finally has enough when Peter accidentally drops his plectrum into the sound hole. Quagmire smashes Peter's guitar and walks offstage, dissolving the partnership mid-performance.
