Plot:
Lois isn't looking forward to her birthday but Brian suggests throwing her a surprise party. After Peter reads a poem that lowers Lois’ spirits even further she decides to turn her life around by adopting a different, younger lifestyle after a makeover and shopping trip.
Lois' lifestyle causes conflict within Peter who isn't sure about the changes but certainly likes most of Lois' new persona. But her new lifestyle soon begins to wear on him. When he gets tired at a party, he becomes a drag on Lois and she splits off to party with younger girls. Back home, Peter moans about her behavior. On television, a report regarding Justin Bieber shows Lois hanging out with the teen girls. Lois sneaks into the concert intending to seduce Bieber but Peter bursts in and beats him up. After Peter demands that Lois come home she refuses, citing the names Peter called her. After Peter apologizes he admits that he really likes Lois for who she really is. When Bieber is called back onstage Peter is forced to go out and substitute “Conway Bieber.” Back home, Peter reiterates his love for Lois but messes up her age. After she corrects him, he snaps for her to get out.
Meanwhile, Stewie Griffin finds a turtle in a pond in a park and decides to take him back home intending to make a pet out of him and names him Sheldon. Sheldon sets about ruining the family's life. When Stewie has a close call with Sheldon in the vicinity he begins to get suspicious. Sheldon's attempt at revenge is revealed late one night and Stewie is forced to flush him down the toilet. When he reaches the end of the sewer pipe, he returns for more revenge. Stewie finds Rupert's and another stranger’s head in boxes and vows to get even with Sheldon. After Sheldon bursts into Stewie's room for a showdown, Stewie nearly loses his fight until saved by Mario.
