Bill and Peter's Bogus Journey

] Bill Clinton was asked to perform the voice of himself, but declined, so MacFarlane performed it. Animations of Clinton in the episode were originally intended to be a lot fatter, but were reduced down "because he's lost a lot of weight." Conway Twitty performed two brief musical shows in the episode; MacFarlane comments that he loves these scenes. The scene of Lois and Peter mocking Stewie's picture which he drew after pretending to like it was originally designed for Prick Up Your Ears, but was moved as that latter episode was exceeding its time limit. The two people typing on their laptops in Starbucks was a scene originally designed for the introductory sequence of "Chick Cancer", as was the scene of Peter having to push Uma Thurman's eyes back together when they move away from her head. The aftermath scene of Lois essentially sleeping with Clinton was discussed extensively in the writer's room for the effects it may have on the show. When Peter visits Bill, he enters the hotel room and says "Hey, Bill, I took this money from Lois's purse, but I don't think she'll notice because she is here... humping you?", the emphasis on the last two words was performed by Danny Smith, even though MacFarlane voices Peter. A deleted scene was made showing Peter bringing Quahog news reporter Tricia Takanawa home to have sex with, originally intending to make Lois watch, but couldn't bring himself to do it, however, this scene was deleted and replaced with Peter's wishes to sleep with Lois's mother.] concluding to give the episode a final rating of 7.1/10. The episode achieved a Nielsen rating of 4.8/7 upon its original broadcasting — around 7.88 million viewers tuned in.
