Ep 18. It's a Trap!

In the ninth season finale of Family Guy, the Griffins return with their final installment of the "Star Wars" trilogy parodies, replacing the "Return of the Jedi" title with "It's a Trap!" The episode involves Luke Skywalker, played by Chris Griffin, as he saves Princess Leia (Lois) and the rest of the galaxy from the evil clutches of the Empire, led by Darth Vader (Stewie).

The episode features a number of familiar characters, although this time, they take on "Star Wars" themed personalities. Peter Griffin plays Han Solo, and has a mission to save his beloved princess Leia and bring down the Empire. Meanwhile, Cleveland then takes on the role of R2D2 and Quagmire takes the role of C3PO. Chris and Meg appear as the young Skywalker twins, with Chris struggling to accept his place in the Jedi Order, while Stewie returns as the evil Sith Lord, Darth Vader.

Throughout the episode, audiences are treated to hilarious jokes and references that poke fun at the "Star Wars" franchise. For instance, there is a prominent scene where Stewie's Darth Vader character unmasking to reveal his true identity, which fans of the original trilogy will undoubtedly love. There are also plenty of gags including the famous "It's a Trap!" line from Admiral Ackbar, which is visualized in a hilarious way.

Aside from the funny plotlines, there are also some heartwarming moments that bring real weight to the parody. One such moment is when Chris (playing Luke Skywalker) finally learns who his father is, a moment that will no doubt have "Star Wars" fans reaching for the tissues.

In terms of visuals, the show continues to impress audiences with their "Star Wars" themed sets and costumes. The fight scenes are all well-choreographed and action-packed, and the animation itself is always top-notch.

Ultimately, "It's a Trap!" is a fitting tribute to "Star Wars," and a hilarious end to the parody trilogy. The episode is likely to leave fans in hysterics, while also making them nostalgic for the original films. Whether you're a fan of the original trilogy or just love a good comedy, this Family Guy episode is not to be missed.
