When Mayor West marries Lois’ sister, Carol, they move into the Griffin’s house to be one big “happy” family. To make room for everyone, Stewie is bumped out of his room and takes over Chris’ room, but not everyone is annoyed by the change. Peter and Mayor West bond and become best friends.

When her ninth husband leaves her, a depressed Carol talks to Lois over the phone about it. Later, Carol arrives at the Griffin residence, with Lois to comfort her. Mayor Adam West also arrives at the Griffin residence, initially to ring doorbells of all the houses in the city. Discovering that they both share a lot of things in common, Carol and Adam go on a date, leading up to their first kiss at a beach. When the couple arrive back to the Griffins' home, Adam asks to marry Carol, and she accepts his proposal. In the meantime, because he does not have siblings, Peter is delighted to have Adam as his first brother-in-law, as he and Adam ride their bicycles together down a street. Lois is not happy with Carol's decision to marry Adam West, given that Carol had broken up with her last husband very recently. Lois tries to persuade her to hold off on her relationship with Adam, going as far as to bring three of her previous spouses to her at the dinner table, in order to prove that her visions for future happiness with Adam will only make her depressed once again. Finally convinced, Carol now rejects Adam's marriage proposal and runs off crying, leaving Adam upset as well.
