"Perfect Castaway" is the twelfth episode of the fourth season of the American animated television series Family Guy. It originally aired on Fox in the United States on September 18, 2005. In the episode, Peter, Cleveland, Joe and Quagmire get stranded on an island and are rescued after months but when Peter returns home he realizes that Lois has married Brian. The episode is a reference to the 2000 films The Perfect Storm and Cast Away.
Written by John Viener and directed by James Purdum and Peter Shin, the episode was scheduled to air on September 11, 2005, but was pushed back a week out of sensitivity to Hurricane Katrina victims. It guest starred Adam Carolla, Adam West, Phil LaMarr, Danny Smith, and Wally Wingert. Since airing, "Perfect Castaway" received positive reviews from critics.
With his business as a private fisherman starting to go under, to get food to feed his family, Peter goes in search of fish at Pelican's Reef at the suggestion of Seamus the old salt, with Cleveland, Joe, and Quagmire tagging along for the free beer. They find the reef and catch the fish that are seemingly tuna, but a hurricane causes a giant wave that sinks their boat. They survive by floating on a raft built out of Quagmire's sex dolls. While floating, Peter reveals that he has been eating Joe's legs. The four men set ashore on a desert island. Several months later, they decided to have an orgy while a cruise ship passes and rescues them, and the four men return home.
