“A Roger Story,” American Dad (Season 17 episode 4)

“If you really miss him, we can get him back.

“What the hell are you talking about?!

“We can go to the underworld and get him back.

“The underworld?! No mortal knows the path to the underworld!

“Yeah-huh! There’s an elevator in the back of Sub Hub. They had a promotion in the ’80s where they were sending people to hell. [. . .]

“Join me on the elevator.

“Or hell-evator, as those Sub Hub marketing geniuses referred to it in the summer of ’87.

“Here’s how it works… everyone gets sent to different floors based on how they lived their lives. There’s a floor for philanderers, gossips, heretics.

“Oh! There’s a Cinnabon on six!

“Roger!

“Okay, okay! Someone’s in a hurry to find their dead son. (Elevator bell dings).”   —Seth MacFarlane, “A Roger Story,” TBS, February 14, 2022 (retrieved January 25, 2024)
