American Dad! (2005–…): Season 11, Episode 16 - Daesong Heavy Industries II: Return to Innocence - full transcript

Stan takes the family to church and Steve questions everything. Stan decides to help Steve develop some faith, but the plan backfires when Steve points out logical flaws with faith and religion. Stan spirals into a deep depression where he attempts to find pleasure and meaning in life, but finds none. When Stan almost drowns in a pool he has a vision of God. Stan believes that he is the new Noah and that he must get his family to an ark in order to survive the flood.

Previously on American Dad...

I lost my faith.

Look! It's a gigantic ship in Korea!

Like the ark.

We must get to the ark
before the floods begin,

because I am the new Noah.

Okay, here's the animals.

Start the damn boat!

Thank you, Lord. You saved us!

I'll never question you again!

Why me, Lord?!



Why me?!

What good is faith

when God treats you like this?!

Why me, Lord?!

You speak every language!

Why are you talking to me in thunder?

Why me?!

- Stan?
- Can't sleep?

Well, you're screaming
at God and kicking me.

Are you starting to
worry that we're floating

on a giant time bomb filled
with natural gas?

Oh, yeah, I'm really scared

about being on a boat full of farts.

Well, since we're both up...



The flood really happened, Francine.

We're the only people left in the world.

Did everyone else deserve to drown?

Grumpy cat, the Muppets?

You're telling me Daniel Tosh
has to die, but I get to live?!

So, are we doing it?

Or did I shave my legs
with a tuna can lid for nothing?

I'm sorry, I... I can't.

Why not?

You used to complain that you
couldn't get in the mood

because of the hustle and
bustle of the modern world.

Now what is it?

Hey, it's not like you've
been popping boners everywhere!

How can you even think of
sex at a time like this?

It's easy. We're having sex right now.

Uh, are we?

Would everybody shut
up?! You guys got it good.

I don't even had someone to sex it to.

The only women around
here are my mom and sister.

The more things change, the
more they stay the same.

You said it, Stan.

Aah!

This boat is hell!

I wish I died in the flood!

Steve, obviously, we
all wish we were dead.

What is everyone complaining about?

This boat is the best!

Jeff, what are you doing here?

Who's watching the temperature gauge?!

Stan, you remembered to tie
down those loose barrels, right?

I think we have bigger
things to worry about.

Francine!

I forget to secure one
measly barrel, and my...

Roger, find the others and
get in the life boat!

I don't see anyone!

You know, it's too bad the rest
of the family couldn't be saved,

but I am not hating this
leg room right now.

Quick, grab any supplies you can!

I got some water and
a box of canned food.

Check it out! I got a Keurig...

And a wolf!

This is my fault! I'm a screw-up!

Hey, help me up.

Oh, man! Look at this. I'm
screwing up right now.

I'm not helping you at all!

Well, I need your help now!

Unbelievable, I'm doing it again!

I'm the worst husband
ever. I don't deserve you.

Just let me go. You're
better off without me.

A woman cast adrift, washes
ashore on an island paradise.

Her mind blown clean by
tropical island breezes.

Or maybe it was her massive concussion.

The point is, her mind has been erased

and now she is as innocent as a child...

who might have brain damage.

But enough doctor talk.

Just listen to the
wonderful flute music.

But she is not alone.

A man...

His mind also dulled
to a childlike state.

Two that used to be so
close now made strangers

by tropical breezes and/or
definitely head wounds.

Will they rediscover their lost romance?

Or will they eat each other?

For those are the two
paths of Flute Island!

Before man and woman can learn to love,

they must learn to survive.

Spear fishing takes
patience, focus, and cunning.

For to draw your food from
the sea is an art that...

Oh, he's already got one.

But his amateur thrashing has
alerted his remaining prey.

There will be no second fish.

Oh, man!

He is gonna get so sick of fish.

But nature strives for balance.

On one side of the
island is unearned abundance.

On the other, a scarcity.

If she cannot produce fire by
nightfall, she will surely di...

how in the...?

As predicted.

Why the hell did you bore holes

into the crate we were floating on?!

They were speed holes to help
us float to safety faster.

The only thing we're
gonna do faster is die.

I know it was a mistake,

and that's why I'm
vowing to make a change, babe.

For the next 30 to 40
minutes before we drown,

you're gonna see a brand-new Jeff.

First, no more red meat.

Second, I'm gonna exercise more.

Third, I'm gonna taper off
smoking weed until it's just

a little puff before a
silly movie or something...

unless I
have a friend visiting,

then I can smoke as much as I want,

'cause that's being a good host.

Jeff, do you know why you're shouting?

'Cause of that damn helicopter!

I feel like you're in a bad mood, Steve.

Is this still about the
wolf eating all the food rations?

He can't help himself. He's a wolf.

I know he's a wolf!

Why would you bring him on to the boat?!

The wolf is great.

No way we're getting robbed
with this guy aboard.

You're the worst!

You're unhelpful, you're unreliable,

and you're the last person

I would want to share a lifeboat with!

I can't believe you feel this way.

Well, then...

Goodbye, Steve.

You want someone helpful
at sea, then I'm your man.

The name's Buck Wett-Nap, survivalist.

Okay.

I once survived four days
in a Del Taco parking lot,

extracting life-saving
nutrients from puddles and bird shit.

Why didn't you just
go into the Del Taco?

I'm a Taco Bell man.

As beautiful as this paradise is,

it is equally treacherous.

Aaah!

Aaah!

She admires his
muscles, his strong features,

and the way sweat
collects under this nipples.

Mmm! That's nice, too.

As with Adam and Eve,

so the serpent sparks the sexuality.

Well, now there's barf on the beach.

So, the world didn't end.

Well, then I'm gonna need your help

finding my family so
that I can kill my father.

That's a story I'd like to
hear, but we're very busy.

This is the U.S. Navy.

Everybody on this
ship has a clear job to do...

and a purpose.

Whoa.

Whoa, indeed.

Mr. Captain, I'm
tired of being a screw-up.

I'd like to join your Navy.

What?!

The Navy isn't something
you can just ask to join.

You also have to sign this form.

Welcome to the Navy.

Our deal is we're in
charge of the ocean.

Oh, and we have our
own special color blue.

It's so dark it's
nuts, you won't believe it...

almost a black.

This concludes your training.

Check it out, Steve, it's like
peeling an orange in one piece.

I thought you were supposed
to be some sort of survivalist.

I am. And not one of
those fake survivalists on TV.

I have a web series... idea.

Why don't I use our
supplies here and catch us some fish.

That would be amazing!

And now all we have to do is wait.

I like to pass the
time in survival situations

by playing Candy Crush.

You have a phone?!

Of course!

A lot of people don't realize

that boredom is the
greatest danger when lost at sea.

Have you tried calling anyone?

I keep it on airplane mode.

That's a survival tip for your battery.

Hmm. Would you mind if we
waited till the next billing cycle?

I only get four minutes a month.

It's a plan for seniors.

Just call someone!

You're right, you're right.

Should I call Klaus
or my friend Tiffany?

Tiffany isn't speaking
to me, might not pick up.

Klaus!

Oh, yeah, I'm alive... barely, man.

My 20-hour flight from Korea
didn't serve a single meal.

So, I guess there
wasn't a biblical catastrophe.

Well, not until Delta gets my harshly
worded complaint letter.

Heads are gonna roll, bro.

Get to the part where you tell him

we're stranded in the
middle of the ocean.

So, Klaus, we're
stuck in the Atlantic...

Pacific!

Nerd.

Anyway, we're in the middle of an ocean.

We are not by the edges, so
you don't have to check there.

Just look in the middle-ish area.

And we've got a wolf, so no rush.

Oh, battery's dead.

I can't believe you wasted our
one chance to get rescued!

Well, don't be angry.

Let's pull up our fishing
net and have some breakfast.

Hmm. I guess I was supposed
to tie one end to the boat.

This is the stuff we would
edit out of the web series.

Oon-gak.

Oon-gak?

Oon-gak.

Oon-gak!

I think "oon-gak" is their
word for coconut.

Emboldened by primal
feelings, she makes a daring move.

And the man, feeling nature's throb...

Runs away?

Are... are you kidding me?

Flute Island?

More like Blue Ball island.

The simple wonders of
nature are quite breathtaking.

But I am not the only
one enjoying the view.

Something inside her stirs.

She knows that she should
look away, but she cannot.

Oon-gak.

I am rock hard.

Petty Officer Fischer?

- Morning, sir!
- How are you feeling?

Amazing, sir.

I finally have a purpose.

That's great.

But you should know you're
doing a terrible job.

You're just supposed
to be mopping the deck.

Why don't you come up to the bridge?

You can be my spotter.

Thank you, sir!

Oh, was that my fault?

I don't know. Are you the
guy waving the [bleep] things?!

I spy with my little eye

something that is
white and red and black.

My sun blisters.

Bingo! You're great at this, Steve.

- I'm dying.
- You're just thirsty.

The human body can only
survive three days without water.

That's why in a
pinch, just drink salt water.

That's the worst thing you can do!

Salt water just makes
you more dehydrated.

Because people don't drink enough.

There's a tipping point
when the delicious water

overwhelms the harmful salt.

Here, I'll show you.

Tipping point, here I come!

I feel incredible!

It burns so good!

Catch up, Steve!

Roger, you're scaring me.

I'm so close to the tipping point.

No one's ever done it right.

They've always given
up because the sea madness

makes them kill their shipmates.

Lifeboat's getting
pretty cluttered.

Tomorrow, we're gonna have
to throw some stuff in the sea.

Lot of things are gonna
have to go into the sea.

Oh, time for bed. Nighty-night.

Um, it... it... it... it's noon.

You're lucky the moon's
blinded me, Steve,

or I'd sock you right in the nose.

Surely, this is the moment

where their love will finally bloom.

Are they serious? Right to sleep?

I can't take this anymore!

There we go.

Ah.

That should get the ball rolling.

And as the two lovers

remembered what nature has always known,

the narrator took a break to
do something that is also natural,

something he needed both hands for.

Ah, the horse gets it.

Okay, I see a bird, lots of water...

And a wave.

Ooh, I see a cool cloud.

Great work, Fischer.

Captain, what is it with
you and this man?

I have to ask, is he
your illegitimate child?

I fear he is.

You know how hard I go in port,

and he looks a lot like a woman that...

I used to pay to step on my balls.

The wolf and I have been talking.

Well, he's been
talking, I've been listening.

We think you're plotting against us.

W-what happened to the wolf?

He found out my secret!

Do you want to hear my secret?

No.

Okay.

Stop, Roger! Just stop!

Aaaaah!

Steve, something happened.

I think I have something, sir!

Steve!

Hayley!

Well, we came together and
made it as a team, Steve.

Looks like the person you'd least like

to be stuck on a lifeboat
with just saved your life.

Listen to me jabbering on.

I'm in the middle of a big bike race.

On your left!

All right, back to our mission.

Operation destroy all the islands.

Too many islands.

Prepare to fire!

Sir, wait!

I believe there are some young
lovers on the island.

- Really?
- I want to see!

- Me first!
- Men, have you forgotten

you are officers in
the United States Navy?

Act like it!

It's ladies first to
watch the dirty beach sex.

Oh, my God!

They are really going at it.

Oh, my God! My parents are alive!

Let's just confirm...

That it's really them.

Babe?

What?

They were cut off from
everything in the world,

but they fell in love with
the world they had.

Oon-gak.

Oon-gak.

Oh, they're ready to go again.

And we wait on tenterhooks to
see if he does it in the brown.

Ooh...

You have kids.

- Mom, Dad!
- Mom, Dad!

Oh, yeah.

We have kids.

Your boobs are out.

So, the world didn't
end, and I'm not Noah.

Sorry, guys.

It's okay, dad.

We're all together
again, and that's what matters.

We're off the island. Fire away, sir.

Oh, no! Don't they know

our dear narrator is still on Fl...

I think we both know

there's always been something
there between us.

Well, now we have the
whole house all to ourselves.

She told me she was 18!

Hmm. Oh, gross... Riesling.

So, we're supposed to go
back to our normal life and...

And everything's just how it was before?

Yeah, honey. What's wrong with that?

Well, what was all this for?

All this stuff happened,

and I don't even know what it means!

It means...

Oon-gak.

Oon-gak.

Uh, what does "oon-gak" mean?

It kind of means...

Coconut.

Ugh, there was barely any
salt in that Riesling.

I was dangerously hydrated.

Aaaah!

Stop, Roger, just stop!

Aaaaah!
