Author's Notes:

It's safe to say that the Family Guy episode known as "Life of Brian" was, to me at least, and so many others as I've come to understand, just a godawful and terrible mess and so were the two follow episodes. So when Brian returned to episodes later, I couldn't help but feel not only relieved to see him alive, but I was also angered at the same time, mostly because of the whole Deus ex machina of his resurrection felt out of place and not well earned. Adding to that, Brian was now no longer the character I once knew and love. And granted, I understand that he was falling apart long before and after "Life of Brian", but I digress…

So, by now you're probably wondering by now and may ask me, "What did I expect from the episode in question?" My answer to you all is a pretty simple one: I expected the episode to be the same story we actually got, but instead of the Griffins adopting Vinny at the end of the episode, I wanted the episode to be turned into a murder mystery investigation and other details, in other words, I wanted the actual episode to be a lot like The Simpsons with their duology of "Who Shot Mr. Burns?" or something similar to what Family Guy doing to their duology episodes of "Stewie Kills Lois" and "Lois Kills Stewie", but with no cop out ending. Alas, that never came to be and it never wound up happening. Safe to say, my fandom for Family Guy was never the same again.

And so, perhaps because of that, I've decided to tell a much better version of the story by writing a better "what-if" version on how the "Life of Brian" should have been told. That in mind, I will keep a small portion of what actually was in the existing final episode, while adding a great chunk of my own ideas too. One such idea is adding a new character that I've created named Grace Luna Fey.

Grace, to tell you all about her, will be a love interest for Brian when he does come back. But unlike the actual canon that follows after "Life of Brian", she will be a recurring character in some future Family Guy stories that I will consider writing, such as the Griffins doing the version of the Star Wars Prequel Trilogy, Rogue One, or even Solo, Disney Films, or amongst other things. But that said, I will not be looking to have the Griffins do their variations of the Star Wars Sequel Trilogy as I didn't particularly like those films too much, granted, there are things I did admire, but in the end, I refuse to consider that trilogy canon.

Back to Grace, here's the details about her if your anxious to know what she does and whatnot…
