Barbara sniffled as she paced back and forth as the Griffins waited at the vet's office. Brian was in intesive care and the vet was doing all he could. The puppies watched their mother, more scared than they had ever seen her.

"Oh, Brian", she cried as she prayed. "Please be okay. Please make it through this. I can't lose you."

"Dad's going to be okay, right Mom?" Jenny asked.

"I'm praying as much as I can", Barbara said. "I suggest you all do the same."

She turned as she saw the vet come into the waiting room. Her ears flattened against her head as she saw his scrubs covered in blood. The Griifins stood hoping to hear some good news.

"Doctor, how is Brian?" Lois asked. "Is he going to be okay?"

"I'm so sorry, Mrs. Griffin", he said. "But Brian's injuries are just too severe for us to save him. I don't know how much longer he has, but I suggest you all go in and say your goodbyes."

Everyone's eyes widened and their jaws dropped when they heard the news. Brian was dying. Barbara started gasping and crying.

"No...no, Brian can't die. Please, is there anything you can do?"

"I'm so sorry", the vet said as he led them to Brian's room.

Everyone gasped as they saw him lying on the table nearly lifeless as his injuries bled freely. The puppies cried, not wanting to see their father like this.

"Daddy", they cried. "Daddy, wake up."

"Damn it, Brian, you can't die!" Stewie said. "We were going to do so many things together. We were going to become wind surfers. I was going to be a little better than you, but we were both going to be good."

They watched as Brian struggled to move.

"You guys, I think Brian's trying to say something", Lois gasped.

"Brian", Barbara cried. "Sweetie, listen to me. You can't die, you know why? Because I'm pregnant. We're going to have more puppies."

Brian groaned as he opened his eyes. He looked at her and smiled. Barbara smiled back with tears in her eyes as held his hand.

"I know you'll take good care of them", he whispered. "You've given me a wonderful life. I love you all."

With that said, Brian let out one final breath as his eyes slowly closed. The vet check him and turned to the family.

"I'm sorry", he said. "He's gone."

"No!" Barbara screamed. "No, Brian! Come back! I won't let you go!"

She climbed onto the table and pounded Brian's chest with her fist. She grabbed Brian's face as she breathed into him. Barbara didn't want to let him go and was doing all she can to bring him back.

"Brian, live!" she cried. "You can't leave me like this!"

"Mom, stop it", Ollie said as the puppies pulled her off him.

"Brian..." Barbara cried.

"Mom, Dad's gone", Marcus said. "You have to let him go."

The Griffins gathered around Brian's body and sobbed. The puppies held each other and sobbed knowing they lost their father.

"Brian", Barbara sobbed as she wrapped her arms around him. "I love you, Brian. I love you."
