Storyline

When Hayley and Steve leave for their respective summers of fun, Francine looks forward to her newfound alone time with Stan. There's only one problem: Roger is still living in the attic fighting for every second of attention he can get. When Francine teaches Roger to be self-sufficient, he finally gets a place of his own. Stan fears that he will bore Francine into leaving him and cooks up a scheme to bring Roger back to the house and liven things up. Meanwhile at camp, Steve and his pals fall prey to a scheme that doesn't quite have the effect they were hoping for. Written by Fox Publicity

Trivia

Steve spends his summer at "Camp Squanto" in this episode, and behind the sign with the camp's name is a prominent totem pole. This totem pole is clearly modeled on a real totem pole at the actual Camp Squanto, a Boy Scout camp in Plymouth, Massachusetts. See more »
