Story
Peter gets a record of his favorite song, and now drives everyone crazy, singing and playing it endlessly. Unable to tolerate anymore, Brian and Stewie steal the record at night and destroy the song. Enraged by the loss, the next morning Peter goes to the store to buy a new one, but it turns out that not long before he was visited by Brian and Stewie, who bought up all the records of this song and destroyed them. In one of the sellers, Peter suddenly recognizes Jesus Christ .
Peter and Jesus become friends, and Peter convinces him to announce to everyone that he has appeared . Very soon Jesus became popular, he was shown on television, he reveled in his glory and forgot about Peter.
Peter soon learns from the news that Jesus was found unconscious in Mary-Kate Olsen's apartment this morning. The police brought him to his senses and arrested him for anti-Semitic statements ( Jews are responsible for all wars in the world! ). Peter pledges for Jesus and sets him free. Henceforth, Jesus despised by all decides that his coming was premature, people are not yet ready to accept him.
