Peter is envious of an old friend's success; Chris' painting gets serious attention.

Family Guy Season 2
Family Guy Episode 11
For his birthday, a blindfolded Peter drives the family to “Bob’s Funland and Putt Putt Golf.” The attraction’s owner, Bob Funland, throws the group out after they cause repeated trouble for other customers. Peter grows depressed over his lack of accomplishments; he remembers Bob Funland as a loser from high school. Chris gives Peter an astonishingly good painting as a present, but Peter simply uses it to cover a hole in the window of his car. An art dealer named Antonio Monatti buys the painting for $5000 and urges Peter to bring Chris to New York City, where he could become a famous artist. Under the guise of nurturing his son’s natural talent, Peter puts Chris completely in Monatti’s hands while the rest of the family tour the city, dazzled by the big-town sights. Monatti gives Chris a total makeover, dying his hair green, dressing him in fashionable clothes, renaming him “Christobel,” and introducing him to Kate Moss. He tells Chris that he can never see his uncultured father again. When Chris reluctantly complies, Peter disowns him and while trying to discover another way to be famous at the Rockefeller Center, discovers Meg’s talent for bird calls.

Lois tricks Peter into attending the premiere of Chris’ artwork by telling him that strippers would be distributing free tacos. After a grandiose unveiling at Monatti Gallery, “Christobel’s” masterpiece turns out to be a collection of portraits of Peter in a style reminiscent of that of Andy Warhol. Monatti and the “art crowd” immediately detest the new work and reject Chris as a poseur. As the family prepare to return to Quahog, Calvin Klein spots Stewie and immediately casts him as “the face” for his new line of designer diapers.
