Family Guy Episode 15
While enjoying dinner with the Pewterschmidts at the Barrington Country Club, the Griffins overhear a Quahog 5 News special report detailing an oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico from one of Carter's ships. He initially gets the idea to blame Peter for the incident, but when Lois won't let him, he instead decides to get a photo-op with an orphan, so he settles on a girl named Tatum. He initially plans to just take the photo and leave, but in their short time together, he comes to enjoy her company and decides to take her in. Upon hearing about this, Lois grows concerned, knowing how poorly he raised her. But when the family pays him a visit, they find that he is doing just fine as an adoptive father, to the point of being far more attentive than he ever was with Lois.
Things eventually hit their boiling point when Carter takes everyone to the Newport Zoo. Lois' jealousy toward Tatum causes her to lose track of her in the bathroom, which angers Carter. The family splits up to find her, before everyone spots her stranded inside the gorilla pit. Knowing it was her fault, Lois climbs into the pit to distract the gorillas, taking Peter's advice to describe a weird dream of hers in excruciating detail and making them back off. After they're both rescued, Lois makes peace with Tatum and apologizes to her father, who also takes the time to apologize. He explains that he deeply regrets not being there for her as a kid, and that while he can't undo his mistakes, raising Tatum is the best he can do in the meantime.
