Peter and Lois are having marital difficulties due to Peter ditching her to different activities with Glenn Quagmire, Cleveland Brown, and Joe Swanson. Brian announces that he has won an award for an essay he wrote and has been invited to Martha's Vineyard to receive it, and offers to take them with him on vacation to ease the anxiety. Peter and Lois agree.
With Quagmire busy, Joe and Bonnie out of town, and Cleveland touring with Black Box, Peter and Lois hire Herbert to look after Meg, Chris and Stewie while they are away. As he always does, Herbert makes several attempts to be near Chris. While Herbert is reading Chris a bedtime story, Chris asks him "Are you a pedophile?" Herbert's answer, if any, is not shown.
