"Quagmire's Mom" is the tenth episode of the thirteenth season of the animated sitcom Family Guy, and the 241st episode overall. It aired on Fox in the United States on February 8, 2015, and is written by Tom Devanney and directed by Greg Colton.
In the episode, Glenn Quagmire is found guilty of unwittingly committing statutory rape and is sentenced to 20 years in prison. At the same time, his previously promiscuous but now born-again Christian mother returns to his life, and he struggles to forgive her for what he perceives as child neglect.
With an audience of 2.81 million, it was the most-watched show on Fox that night. It was also the subject of a campaign by the Parents Television Council, who believed that its sexual content broke broadcast decency laws.
When Meg needs a check for a field trip, Peter finds that his checks are fake so he insists on opening his own checking account. At Quahog Savings and Loans, Peter and Lois find that his birth certificate gives his real first name as "Justin" with his full name being "Justin Peter Griffin". Although Lois tries to rein in Peter, he immediately decides to change his persona to what he believes a "Justin" should be; young and wild. "Justin" decides to throw a party, where Quagmire meets a girl named Kira. Lois returns and orders everyone to leave, then plans to take "Justin" to City Hall to change his name back to Peter.
The next day, Quagmire learns that Kira is not 23 years old as she claimed, and she is under the age of legal consent in Rhode Island. Joe arrives at Quagmire's house with some police officers stating that he has received an anonymous tip that Quagmire was having sex with an underage girl. Quagmire confesses due to his pride in having had sex with her and he is arrested by the police for statutory rape. He is put on trial and his only chance for leniency is for character witnesses, since he is legally guilty once the proof of Kira's age is revealed.
