Season 7 / Episode 3: - Road to Germany

Brian Griffin: Mort? Hello? Mort?
Stewie Griffin: Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey! What are you doing in my room? Don't touch my stuff with your dirty walking on the street paws!
Brian Griffin: I'm looking for Mort. He came up here an hour ago and never came back down.
Stewie Griffin: Uh-oh.
Brian Griffin: What?
Stewie Griffin: My time machine's been activated.
Brian Griffin: Time machine? I didn't know you had a time machine.
Stewie Griffin: Yeah, I built it after I got bored with that European See 'n Say.

European See 'n Say: The pig goes "WANK!"

European See 'n Say: The cow goes "SHAZOO!"
Stewie Griffin: It most certainly does not!

European See 'n Say: The rooster goes "GICKORY GEE!"
Stewie Griffin: Where? Where does the rooster say that?

European See 'n Say: The monkey goes "MACAQUE!"
Stewie Griffin: Oh, no, no, no! It does not!

European See 'n Say: The elephant goes "THWOMP!"
Stewie Griffin: Oh, yeah, kinda.

Season 7 / Episode 3: - Road to Germany

Stewie Griffin: OK, if everything worked properly this should be the exact time and place that Mort was sent to. Now we just got to find out where we are.
Brian Griffin: Or WHEN we are.
Stewie Griffin: Ah that's such a douche time traveler thing to say. [a Cow says SHAZOOM]. Okay we are somewhere in Europe.

MISTAKES/GOOFS

CONT: When Mort enters Stewie's room, there are decorations on the door. When Brian and Stewie enter an hour later, the decorations are gone.
DATE: Set in September 1939, Brian and Stewie fly an Avro Lancaster on a bombing mission to Germany. However, the Lancaster didn't enter service until 1942.
FACT: Brian, Stewie, and Mort time travel to a wedding in Warsaw Poland on September 1, 1939, whereupon they encounter invading German troops. Although the Germans crossed the Polish border on September 1, they didn't reach Warsaw until September 29.
CONT: At the end of the episode, right before Mort enters Stewie's room (again), there doesn't even appear to be a bedroom door, then a few seconds later, Mort opens it.

TRIVIA

Unlike the other "Road to..." episodes, this one does not feature a musical number, though Brian and Stewie begin one before being interrupted by Mort.
There are numerous pop culture references: The police car pile-up at the end of the submarine chase is an homage to The Blues Brothers, the Hawkmen arriving in support of Stewie, Mort and Brian's air raid is an homage to Flash Gordon, the apple-cart/skateboard chase is from Back To The Future and ends with the character saying "Das Poop!", perhaps alluding to Das Boot. There's even a blaster noise from Star Wars when they jump the three officers for their uniforms.
The title is based on the series of "Road" films that starred Bing Crosby, Bob Hope (I) and Dorothy Lamour.
