==About The Church of the Holy Fonz==
 
Peter founds the church after becoming frustrated with the Catholic traditions of his father, Francis. After consulting with Lois and watching an episode of ''Happy Days'', an inspired Peter purchases an old barn and renovates it into his church. At first, the church - whose mass style is similar to Christianity, except for the substitution of ''Happy Days'' characters and situations - is a success.
 
 
However, Brian and Francis are troubled by what they view as either people looking to religion for answers to their problems and personal needs, or worshipping a fraudulent god, and set out to undermine the church. Their plan - which involves using celebrities from other television programs to recruit members for their own "religions" - works, and it isn't long before the church closes. In the end, Lois reassures a dejected Peter that if he spread his values of friendship to just one person then it was a success.
