In Family Guy season 4 episode 23, titled "Deep Throats," the citizens of Quahog become paranoid after finding out that their local news anchor is secretly a CIA agent. As a result of this discovery, Peter Griffin becomes suspicious of his wife's involvement with the government and their neighbor, Glenn Quagmire, decides to dig deeper into the conspiracy.
Meanwhile, Lois Griffin has been chosen to cut the ribbon at a grand opening ceremony for a new museum in town. However, she becomes frustrated with the lack of attention given to her by the local news station and decides to take matters into her own hands, leading to hilarious situations.
As Peter and Quagmire investigate the CIA agent anchor, they uncover shocking secrets and adrenaline-fueled action ensues. Meanwhile, Lois's efforts to get more attention leads to some unexpected consequences.

As the episode reaches its climax, the citizens of Quahog are forced to band together to face a greater threat than they could have ever imagined. "Deep Throats" proves to be a wild ride from start to finish, featuring all of the hi-jinks and absurdity fans have come to expect from Family Guy.
