American Dad- - Season 21eps4 Online

Stan, still in his pillow costume, gives an impassioned speech from a fake tree stump: Stan: “I am Grumblebeak! And you know what? I faked my death because I was tired of your parades! You ever try to sleep when a marching band plays ‘Sweet Caroline’ at 2 AM? It’s HELL!”

INT. ROGER’S ATTIC - NIGHT Roger is preening in front of a mirror. He has the six clone grouses as his new “backup squad.” They’re dressed in tiny berets. Roger: “We’re starting a mime troupe. No sounds. Just judgment.” The grouses slowly turn their heads. Freeze frame. Klaus (in a bowl nearby): “I wanted to be the mime.” Roger: “Shut up, fish. You’re the tiny bicycle.”

Why does it get a parade?” Francine: “Stan, that bird survived three wars, a meth lab explosion in ’87, and Klaus’s attempt to marry it. Show some respect.” Stan rolls his eyes. Later, trying to parallel park his SUV, he accidentally backs over Grumblebeak’s commemorative birdhouse. The grouse attacks. Stan swats it. It flies into a transformer. Poof. Feathers rain down.

Stan hides the body in Roger’s closet. But the town mourns. A 24/7 news vigil is hosted by GREG and TERRY , weeping. Stan feels zero guilt until BULLOCK declares that without the grouse’s “spirit,” the CIA’s new pheasant-based drone guidance system will fail. Stan must produce the grouse by Friday or be sent to “Guantanamo’s quirky annex” (it has a clown-themed interrogation room).
