Synopsis

• When the local brewery has a contest offering tours of the plant, Peter and his friends go on a drinking binge trying to find the winning beer can. Through a stroke of dumb luck, Peter and Brian actually find one of the winning scrolls. In a Willy Wonka homage, Peter and Brian start the tour, but are quickly kicked out after drinking forbidden beer. Meanwhile, Lois' students have a big piano recital/competition coming up and Lois is praying one of her students wins. She thinks she's got a lock on it when she signs a new student, Ling, a piano prodigy. However, in her enthusiasm, Lois works Ling too hard and she drops out! In an odd twist, Peter--in a drunken stupor over being booted from the contest--sits down at the piano and plays brilliantly! Lois is thrilled and keeps Peter drunk long enough to win the piano recital.

• Tom Tucker: That's right. I made it up. I thought that if everyone thought the last scroll was found, they would stop looking giving me the edge to find it myself. But what I did was wrong.

Trivia

• When Peter has a drink and puts it on the piano, it disappears.
• In the scene where Pat is singing, two of the people in the scene look exactly like Charlie and his Grampa Joe from Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory, probably because much of the episode is a parody of the movie.
• The song Peter plays to win the Piano Recital is the theme song from the Mary Tyler Moore Show. He also plays these tunes when he's drunk; "Dallas," "9 to 5," and the closing themes to The Incredible Hulk and The X-Files.
• In the past when Family Guy has parodied a song they have done it in such a way that the song is slightly different than the original as to avoid a copyright problem. However, the music for "I've got a Golden Ticket" is the same as it is in Willy Wonka and The Chocolate Factory. The same is true when Pat sings his song inside the brewery. It is similar to "Pure Imagination."
• The book Meg reads when Lois tells her about the competition is named Popularity for Dummies.
