Stan Smith uses his CIA skills to help his 13-year-old son Steve win class president and the heart of the hottest girl in class, Lisa Silver. But when being class president makes Steve mad with power, Stan must jump in to save the day. Meanwhile, Roger, the alien Stan saved from Area 51, helps 18-year-old Hayley with her school paper. In return, she hooks him up with boatloads of junk food. Unfortunately, some Chocodiles send Roger over the edge, and a sugar crash prohibits him from finishing one of her papers, forcing Hayley to pick up the pieces. Klaus, the goldfish with the brain of a German guy, pines for Francine. Unfortunately for Klaus, the closest he'll ever get to a date with her is the spin cycle with her sports bra.
