While the youngest child of the Griffin family is known for his evil maniacal nature,
he does have his fair share of good moments. Stewie is
known for his sociopathic behavior and his obsession with killing his mother, as well as
achieving world domination. Although he has more evil moments than good, Stewie’s character has had
more soft moments that have come out as the series has gone on. We will be taking a look at both his
good side and his evil side, as well as some of the murders he’s committed throughout the show.
I’m Brad with WickedBinge and these are Stewie Griffin’s Deeds: Good to Evil
To start things off, let’s take a look at some of Stewie’s more courageous,
noble and selfless acts throughout the show. These are Stewie’s Good Deeds.
The Gold Medal for Stewie’s most benevolent act has to go to saving Brian’s life.
In the episode “Life of Brian”, when Brian was killed off after being hit by a car,
Stewie was the most torn up about Brian’s passing. Two episodes later, in the episode “Christmas
Guy”, Stewie with the help of Vinny, goes back in time to save Brian’s life from being hit
by the car. This is the most selfless thing Stewie has done, because it was done out
of nothing but the goodness of his heart and the compassion & grief for his missing friend.
In the episode “Mr. & Mrs. Stewie”, he also stopped his girlfriend Penelope from murdering
Brian, leading to a fight scene at the end. The Silver Medal goes to helping out Chris.
This is Stewie’s second most good deed, because there are many episodes that show
Stewie helping out his older brother out of nothing but pure selflessness.
A good example is the episode “Extra Large Medium”. Stewie helped Chris get ready for his
date with a girl with down syndrome by freshening him up. In the episode, Stewie performed his song
‘Down Syndrome Girl’ as he got Chris ready. In the episode, “Secondhand Spoke” Stewie hid
in Chris’ backpack to help give him advice while he was at school for how to deal with his bullies.
The next example is in the episode “Turkey Guys” when Peter & Brian were gone trying
to retrieve the thanksgiving turkey. In Peter’s absence,
Stewie tried coaching his brother on how to step up and become the man of the house.
And finally, in the episode “Stewie, Chris & Brian’s Excellent Adventure” Stewie along with
Brian, took Chris in Stewie’s time machine to see different moments throughout history to prepare
him for his upcoming history test. You can’t deny that Stewie has a soft spot for his older brother.
The Bronze Medal goes to comforting Brian. When Brian was tripping on mushrooms,
Stewie stepped up by helping him calm down. Brian even cut off his ear at one point, and
Stewie helped stitch his ear back on. This is definitely one of Stewie’s kinder acts.
Next is Saving Lois’ life. In the episode “And Then There Were Fewer”, Lois is held at gunpoint
by news anchor, Diane Simmons. Just before Lois is shot, it’s revealed that Diane was miraculously
shot by a mysterious source. It’s revealed at the end that the mysterious source was none other than
Stewie. But wait? Doesn’t Stewie want Lois to die? Well we have to argue that although this
was an act of good, it wasn’t done entirely out of selflessness like some of his other good deeds.
The only reason Stewie saved Lois’ life was so that he could be the one to kill
her himself, as he stated “if anyone’s gonna take that b word down it’s gonna be me”.
Next is destroying Superstore USA. While this isn’t the best deed in the world because
it still caused a lot of destruction, Stewie & Brian using a tank to destroy Superstore USA
was nonetheless a good deed. In the episode, the store was using up all of the city’s power. At
the end, they restored the power in the city. Next up is killing Bertram. This one is tricky
because just like killing Diane Simmons, this one also involves murder. However, it was done
for the greater good. In the episode “The Big Bang Theory” Stewie killed his half-brother and
villain of the series, Bertram. Bertram wanted to go back in time to kill Leonardo DaVinci,
ultimately erasing Stewie’s existence. However, it was shown in the beginning of the episode
that Brian & Stewie created the Big Bang. Stewie had to stop Bertram in order to prevent him from
erasing all of the universe’s existence. Saving the entire universe certainly makes Stewie a hero.
This last one in the good section also leans a bit more towards bad, but it was done with
a good intention. It’s faking Brian’s death. In the episode “Dog Gone”, Brian became depressed
after he felt like people don’t wanna value a canine’s life as much as a human’s.
Stewie puts Brian’s collar on another dog and burns down a liquor store.
When Brian sees how much the Griffins are upset that he’s gone, he’s touched by Stewie’s gesture.
While it may not have been the best thing to burn down a liquor store and kill another
dog in the process, this was one of Stewie’s more selfless moments because he just wanted
to show Brian how much his life matters. Now… We got the good deeds out of the way…
I think it’s time to take a look at the onger list of Stewie’s Evil Deeds. We’re actually going to
be starting with the lesser evil and working our way down to the most evil… specifically murders.
First up, we have humiliating Brian. There are a number of instances where Stewie goes out of his
way just to mess with Brian and humiliate him. In the episode “Big Trouble in Little Quahog”, after
Brian teased Stewie about his height, Stewie got back at Brian by shrinking him
down. Things go south when they both end up shrunk down to microscopic size.
Another good example was in the episode “The Big Bang Theory” when Stewie kept going back
in time to mess up important moments in Brian’s life just to humiliate him. He even stole his
Peanut butter Jelly Time song from him. The worst yet has to be when Stewie made
Brian eat his feces. When Brian & Stewie were trapped in a bank vault, Stewie pretended that
he would get sick if he sat too long in a soiled diaper so he made Brian eat his poop. However,
Stewie later revealed that he made Brian do it because he just wanted to see if he could.
Next up is signing him & Brian up for the army. In the episode “Saving Private Brian” Stewie
signed up for the army, and when he found out he could win a 100 dollar bonus,
he signed up Brian too without his permission.Things
got out of hand when the two of them got sent off to Iraq and they had to take desperate measures
to escape by doing things such as pretending to be gay and shooting each other in the foot.
Next we have: cutting off Brian’s tail. While this wasn’t done out of pure maliciousness,
but rather out of carelessness, cutting off Brian’s tail definitely counts as a
bad deed. In the episode “The Blind Side”, Stewie tried to help impress Brian’s girlfriend’s parents
by hiding the fact that he’s a dog. When Brian’s tail started to wag, he asked Stewie to make it
stop. Stewie made it stop by cutting the tail off. Next is stealing Brian’s
car. In the episode “Stewie Goes for a Drive”, Brian leaves Stewie alone in the car
which causes Stewie to take the car out for a spin. Being that he’s a baby and doesn’t have
much experience behind the wheel means this does not end well. Stewie accidentally crashed and
damaged the front of the car because he was trying to win Justin Bieber tickets while driving. What
is the lesson here? Don’t talk on the phone while driving, especially if you’re a baby.
The next one is framing Connie D’Amico. In the episode, “McStroke” Stewie goes to high school
disguised as his alter-ego Zac Sawyer. When he became popular, he went on a date with Connie
D’Amico. Everything went well until Connie found out about Stewie’s baby-sized penis and he became
the laughing stock of the whole school. Stewie gets back at Connie by revealing his true identity
in front of everyone and framing Connie as a child predator in which she gets arrested. While this
definitely was a cruel act, we do have to argue it’s not as bad as some of the other things Stewie
has done as this was done out of retaliation. We should also mention that Connie is not a
very good person herself, so she saw this coming. Next up we have using Brian’s DNA to impregnate
himself. While this one wasn’t entirely done out of malicious intent, because Stewie did it to get
closer to Brian, it was still nonetheless a bad deed. Stewie did it without Brian’s
approval or permission, and they ended up with a bunch of Stewie-Brian hybrid
babies they could hardly take care of. Due to the irresponsibility of this decision made by Stewie,
they ended up abandoning the babies at an animal shelter at the end of the episode.
Next is tying up Anne Murray. When Stewie & Brian had a newfound passion in listening to
the music of Anne Murray, they visited her home to find out the meaning behind one of her songs.
This visit however, quickly turned into a hostage situation when Stewie angrily tied
up Anne Murray and held her at gunpoint after finding out she never wrote her own songs.
This next one is similar, because it also involved a hostage situation. It’s getting back at Bart’s
bully. In the crossover episode with The Simpsons, Stewie tried to impress Bart by getting back at
his bully Nelson. While this wasn’t done entirely out of malicious intent, because Stewie was doing
this so Bart would like him, it still wasn’t okay for Stewie to terrorize another kid.
Stewie kidnapped Nelson, tied him up, and literally made him ‘eat his shorts’. Bart
wasn’t impressed by Stewie’s gesture, and instead was freaked out by it.
The next is grand theft auto. When Stewie & Brian were in Colorado trying to get Rupert back,
Stewie ended up in a ski race with the family who took possession of his stuffed bear. Stewie lost
the race, however, not being over Rupert, he threw hot tea in the son’s eyes. Stewie & Brian took
Rupert back and made a run for it. Without any transportation back to Rhode Island, Stewie car
jacked a random guy on the street by holding him at gun point and they made off with his vehicle.
Next is assaulting Brian. In the episode “Patriot Games”, Brian loses
a bet with Stewie and failed to pay him the money he owed. Throughout the episode,
Stewie assaulted Brian by mercilessly beating him until he paid up. He even tried drowning
Brian in the toilet, and then he shot both of his knees and lit him on fire.
Stewie finally got his way when Brian gave in and paid him back after all of the injuries.
Next we have: committing Arson. In the episode “Chick Cancer” Stewie attempted to murder his
girlfriend Olivia when he found her in the cardboard house with Victor. He lit the cardboard
house on fire knowing both of them were in there. Luckily, Olivia somehow survived the fire as she
returned in a future episode. Therefore, this doesn’t technically count as a murder,
however, the actions were just as malicious. The next is creating an evil clone of himself.
This one wasn’t entirely intentional, because Stewie was originally trying to make himself more
evil, until he accidentally created an evil clone instead. However, it was still rooted in Stewie’s
need to cause terror and harm on others. The evil clone went around murdering different people. For
example, one of the people he tried to kill was the Kool-Aid Man. However,
we do have to give Stewie some props for realizing when the situation went too far and
trying to stop his clone from causing more evil. The Bronze Medal of Evil goes to attempting to
kill Lois. This one isn’t quite as bad as the next few things because Stewie never actually goes
through with killing Lois. However, his relentless attempts deserve a mention. Trying to kill your
own mother is not in any way a good thing. Stewie has an entire weapon room that Lois doesn’t know
about, and is constantly using devices to scheme against her. While we don’t see Stewie try to kill
Lois as often has he used to, it’s still something he does every now and then. However, there’s
always something that gets in the way whenever he tries to do it. In the episode “Stewie Kills Lois”
we actually do see what would happen if Stewie killed Lois and took over the world, however, it
was only a simulation and didn’t actually happen. The Silver Medal of Evil goes to letting his
therapist die. While this one doesn’t involve Stewie directly murdering another person, it
still takes the cake for the silver medal of evil. In the episode “Send in Stewie, Please”, Stewie
opened up to his therapist and finally let his guard down to reveal secrets about himself.
Stewie’s therapist began to suffer from a heart condition and instead of getting him his
medications to save his life, Stewie let him die. Stewie only did this because he was afraid of the
world or anyone else finding out who he really is. As bad as this was, it still technically wasn’t
a direct kill done out of anger, revenge, or pure hatred towards the victim. We’re not counting it
as a murder because Stewie wasn’t planning on his therapist dying, nor was the direct cause of
his death, the therapist just died from a heart condition and he didn’t do anything about it.
And the Gold Medal of Evil goes to murder. Stewie has killed a lot of people in the show so
stick with us. Usually Stewie’s reason for wanting to kill someone is out of revenge,
jealousy, anger, being bitter, or just plain petty. But let’s go through them:
First up we have Jeremy, which we would argue is not as bad as some of the other murders Stewie has
committed. This death was more unintentional, however, Stewie still did assault Jeremy and
kidnap him. When Stewie had a crush on his new babysitter, he was jealous over her boyfriend,
Jeremy. Stewie assaulted Jeremy and hid him in the back of a car to make it look like he went
missing. At the end of the episode, Stewie realized he accidentally left
Jeremy in the trunk, killing him in the process. Next is Denise Crosby. When Stewie managed to zap
the entire cast of Star Trek: The Next Generation to his room, he demanded that they spend the day
together and answer his fan questions. However, when Denise Crosby responded “but you’re a baby”,
Stewie didn’t take this well and shot her. Next is the man in white. When Stewie celebrated
his first birthday, he was afraid that the man in white would put him back in the womb. This
of course being the doctor who did Stewie’s delivery on the day he was born. However,
Stewie mistakened Meg’s cult leader as the man in white and murdered him.
Next we have the infamous Christmas home invasion. While we do have to argue that
this one started out with good intentions, it quickly turned deadly. In the episode “Road to
the North Pole” Stewie traveled to the North Pole in an effort to kill Santa, which in of itself is
not a good deed. However, when Stewie & Brian arrive, the North Pole was not what they expected,
and they find out that Santa would die if they don’t save Christmas. Stewie & Brian take Santa’s
place and try to deliver all of the presents in one night. However, things do not go as planned
when they arrived at their first house and it turned into a home invasion and double murder.
The father of the family woke up in the middle of the night and when he found Stewie & Brian,
he mistaken them for burglars. Stewie killed him with a baseball bat and hid him in the closet.
When the wife and the daughter woke up and found the father’s dead body, Stewie killed the wife
with a baseball bat too and tied up the little girl. Not only did Stewie & Brian ruin Christmas,
but two innocent people were murdered, and a young child was traumatized in the process. This
is by far one of Stewie’s worst deeds and one of the show’s darkest moments.
Next is New Brian. In the episode “The Man With Two Brians”, The Griffins got a new younger dog
named New Brian. Stewie quickly disliked the new dog and the way the family was using him to
replace Brian. When New Brian revealed to Stewie that he humped Rupert, Stewie got his revenge
by murdering the new dog in a very brutal way. He chopped him up and put his remains in the garbage,
however, he framed it as a suicide. Next we have Brian’s siblings.
You may not have seen this because it was a cut scene from the extended DVD version
of the episode “Hannah Banana”, but this was by far one of Stewie’s cruelest acts.
When Stewie wanted Brian to buy him tickets to a Hannah Montana concert, he held Brian’s siblings
hostage until he got his way. He tortured them and ended up killing one right in front of Brian.
This has to be one of Stewie’s most cruel murders for killing his best friend’s
long lost brother right in front of him. This last one may come as a surprise,
but it’s being with Penelope. This is Stewie’s worst murder yet, because it involved multiple
terrorist attacks that most likely killed hundreds of thousands to possibly millions
of people across the globe. In the episode “Mr. and Mrs. Stewie” Stewie had a new girlfriend named
Penelope who was more evil than him and encouraged him to go around killing people and committing
heinous crimes. They go from doing more harmless crimes, such as planting a bomb to go off every
time Mort checks his wallet, to starting wars between countries. Some of the terrorist attacks
they committed include blowing up the Great Wall of China and bombing the Eiffel Tower. They
started a war between Pakistan and India which led to endless destruction in the Middle East. Stewie
also destroyed Copenhagen with a giant tidal wave. Things went so far that Brian took notice of
Stewie’s increase in evil activity due to Penelope’s bad influence and told him he
should stay away from her. Penelope didn’t take this well and told Stewie to kill Brian for her.
Although he didn’t end up doing it, it’s worth mentioning that Stewie came close to killing
his best friend because of this relationship. But let us know in the comment section which
of Stewie’s Deeds you think is the most evil. Be sure to hit that notification
