That episode aired in 2005 or 2006. I remember I watched that episode on its first run with my girlfriend at the time.

She had heard me say for years how much I loathe him. So when Francine did THAT episode, I was like YES!!! YES!!! GO FRANCINE!!!

My girlfriend was visably scared how excited I got. It was like rooting for a sports team, except we were sharing our love of loathing a smug bastard.
