Please help improve it by removing unnecessary details and making it more concise. ( October 2017 ) Chris does poorly on a test at school and blames the Evil Monkey living in his closet, which he says prevented him from being able to study. His parents, Peter and Lois, are fed up with Chris talking about the Evil Monkey, saying it does not exist. Later, Stewie, a self - proclaimed Hannah Montana fan, learns that Miley Cyrus is having a concert in Quahog. Tickets to the show are sold out mere seconds after being made available for purchase, leaving him unable to attend the show. Brian makes fun of Stewie for watching Hannah Montana, at one point, calling him `` gay ''. But seeing him cry about not being able to attend the show persuades him to help get tickets. Chris sets up a camera in his room to capture the creature. When he reviews the tape he finds no evidence of the Evil Monkey, and goes ahead with his plans on capturing him. The family is taken aback when Chris proves it is real by capturing the monkey, and showing it to them, but he turns out not to be evil after all. The monkey then explains himself to the Griffins for being here. He reveals that he got home from work one day and caught his wife cheating on him with another monkey. He went through a deep depression after the divorce, which costed him his job, and all his money was gone, meaning that he lost his house, so he moved into Chris 's closet just until he finally got back on his feet, and has lived there for 9 years. He also reveals that the face he makes at Chris was what he makes when thinking, and he was really trying to talk with Chris this whole time ( pointing at him was his only way of trying to start a conversation with him ). In addition, the trembling was due to a copper deficiency. The monkey apologizes to Chris for unintentionally terrorizing him and wishes to start over. Chris is at first unconvinced, but when the monkey helps him write a book report, he is surprised to receive a passing grade, and the two become great friends. Brian and Stewie manage to sneak in backstage at the concert, where Miley asks why they 're here. Brian then explains that Stewie has a ' tumor ' shaped like a football, which convinces Miley to let them hang out with her backstage. Miley and Stewie quickly become best friends and they sing a song which Stewie wrote. Soon, Chris realizes that the Monkey has spent more time with him, like taking him to play baseball and going to a father and son BBQ in Monkeykid. Chris then says to Peter that he has never gave as much attention to him as the monkey has, so he grows to resent his own father. While having ice - cream with Miley, Stewie notices a signal interference on her cell phone when handing it to her. He then realises something is strange about Miley. Upon spying on her, Stewie and Brian discover that she is actually an android after seeing an employee insert a USB drive on the control panel on Miley 's back. They both realized that Miley was created by Walt Disney Imagineering to become the perfect teen idol that can never fail. When Brian curiously asks if she can perform other tasks, Stewie agrees to reprogram Miley to have sex with Brian by gaining access to the control panel. However, it goes wrong and he accidentally sends Miley into a rage, forcing Stewie and Brian to run away from the monstrous Miley. Peter and Chris set up traps for each other as they fight. Lois then gets sick of the boys fighting, so the monkey tricks Peter and Chris into coming to dinner together. Chris and Peter admit they do n't hate each other and vow to spend more time together. As they are doing this, they see Brian and Stewie running away from the chaotic Miley who is smashing vehicles, shops and houses. The monkey confronts her, and attempts to talk her out of her rampage ( as well as her career ), but Miley ends up kidnapping him and takes him to the top of a nearby skyscraper. Fortunately, Peter is able to recruit his neighbor, Quagmire, to shoot her down in a biplane, and a battle with Miley starts escalating. The monkey falls out of her hands and he grips onto a narrow ledge with one hand. Miley 's skin, hair and clothes peel off, revealing her android skeleton and she tries to kill Peter and Quagmire with a rock, but fails. Eventually, she is pummelled off the top. Afterwards, the monkey falls off the ledge but is saved by Peter just before he hits the road far below. Stewie and Brian then see the broken Miley, where Stewie says Brian can now have sex with her, but Miley blows up seconds later. Stewie apologizes to Brian for missing his chance for sexual intercourse with Miley but then her dismembered arm falls back out of the sky in front of them and Brian wags his tails in excitement and tells Stewie that it 's not too late to have sex with her, anticipating what 's to happen with him next with her hand. Monkey then moves out of Chris 's closet, and his friendly attitude also parts ways with him, saying he will `` go where he 's needed '', and moves to Tom Tucker 's upside - down - faced son Jake 's closet as his new haunt. Production and development Miley Cyrus was parodied in the episode. `` Hannah Banana '' was written by series regular Cherry Chevapravatdumrong and directed by John Holmquist, before the conclusion of the eighth production season. Commenting on the original development of the episode, series creator and executive producer Seth MacFarlane stated, `` ( The episode ) was the result of our ongoing desire to let the series stagnate, and kind of evolve things that may have run their course. There 's only so many times you can do the Evil Monkey jumping out of that closet, before the joke gets old, and I think often times there 's a fear to mess with what works, and change things permanently. (... ) We literally retired the Evil Monkey in this episode, and got a great episode out of it, which was worth it, and kind of evolved the series in a way. '' Singer and actress Candace Marie provided the voice of Miley Cyrus. Marie received the role when her producer alerted her of the audition, and she eventually received a call from the Family Guy casting director a month later. Even though the episode mocked Cyrus, Marie did not think she would upset any of Cyrus ' fans. She added that she is a fan herself, and `` was very impressed by the way Family Guy developed the episode, '' and thought it was `` a huge compliment for them to refer to Miley as the `` perfect popstar. '' '' After voicing Cyrus, Marie was called back to Family Guy to voice Meg 's friend Beth for `` several upcoming episodes. '' Marie described Beth as a girl that is `` rarely addressed in conversation but loves to chime in whenever she can. '' The song in the episode sung by Cyrus was written by Chevapravatdumrong, and composed and performed by Family Guy composer Walter Murphy. The episode aired as a part of an `` all - Seth MacFarlane '' line - up, after the episode `` Brian 's Got a Brand New Bag '' and the live - action special Seth and Alex 's Almost Live Comedy Show. `` Hannah Banana '', along with the seven other episodes from Family Guy 's eighth season, were released on a three - disc DVD set in the United States on June 15, 2010. The sets included brief audio commentaries by Seth MacFarlane and various crew and cast members for several episodes, a collection of deleted scenes, a special mini-feature which discussed the process behind animating `` Road to the Multiverse '', and mini-feature entitled Family Guy Karaoke. In addition to the regular cast, series regular, writer and executive producer Danny Smith voiced the Evil Monkey. Recurring guest voice actors Chris Cox, actor Ralph Garman, writer Alec Sulkin and writer John Viener made minor appearances throughout the episode. Cultural references Rapper Kanye West was referenced in the episode. In the opening scene of the episode, Chris alerts his parents of a failing grade he received at school on a science test, causing his mother to suggest he receive help on his homework. Chris then asks his father, Peter, for help who ends up rejecting him, leading Chris to blame his bad grades on the Evil Monkey, and announces that he will prove the monkey is real. Peter then suggests that his son would have to do a better job than God when he created actresses Ellen Barkin and Kelly McGillis. Later that day, Stewie is shown watching television in the family room, with a narrator announcing a Hannah Montana marathon, as well as a concert in Quahog, Rhode Island, causing him to become excited. A scene from an episode of Hannah Montana is then shown, featuring Miley Cyrus, as well as her father, singer - songwriter Billy Ray Cyrus. Deciding to sneak into the concert, Brian agrees to dress as rapper Kanye West, and is forced to sing one of his songs by a security guard. Despondent, Brian then begins singing the theme song to 1972 NBC sitcom Sanford and Son. The scene is not shown on TV ; Stewie and Brian sneak into the concert in the televised version. As the monkey begins bonding with the family, including having a conversation about actress and comedian Sarah Silverman, Chris realizes his deep hatred of the monkey. Deciding to help Chris on his homework, the monkey scraps a lame attempt by Chris to write an essay about the 1951 novel The Catcher in the Rye by American author J.D. Salinger, and instead writes an A+ essay titled, `` The Slave Trade Allegory of Curious George. '' The two then begin their own personal bonding, and eventually decide to go fishing, leading Chris to catch the comic book superhero Aquaman, before beating him to death and eating him. In the conclusion of the episode, Miley Cyrus begins destroying downtown Quahog, causing the monkey to attempt to stop and reason with her. Not realizing that Stewie had unsuccessfully reprogrammed her, the monkey is then kidnapped, and taken to the top of a nearby skyscraper, in a parody of the 1933 film King Kong. Cyrus is then shot down by Quagmire and Peter while piloting a biplane, before the two rescue the monkey from certain death. After being shot during several passes, Miley 's robotic skeleton is partially revealed making her resemble a T - 800 from `` Terminator ''. Reception In a slight improvement over the previous episode, the episode was viewed in 7.73 million homes in its original airing, according to Nielsen ratings, despite airing simultaneously with Sunday Night Football on NBC, The Amazing Race on CBS and Desperate Housewives on ABC. The episode also acquired a 4.0 rating in the 18 -- 49 demographic, beating Seth & Alex 's Almost - Live Comedy Show, The Cleveland Show and the Family Guy episode `` Brian 's Got a Brand New Bag '', in addition to significantly edging out all three in total viewership. Reviews of the episode from television critics were mostly mixed, who found it to be `` a thorough examination of both Miley Cyrus and the evil monkey in Chris ' closet, '' but, `` things got ridiculous. '' Television critic Ahsan Haque of IGN gave the episode an 8.5 out of ten, and called it a `` much better episode than Brian 's Got a Brand New Bag, with some clever sight gags, an annoyingly catchy musical number, and the revelation of the Evil Monkey 's true reasons for hiding in Chris ' closet. '' In a simultaneous review of all four MacFarlane programs, Todd VanDerWerff of The A.V. Club gave the episode a C - stating, `` Turning Miley Cyrus into a Small Wonder parody was fitfully amusing, but the rest of the Hannah Montana material was ridiculously non-specific, filled with the kinds of jokes everyone made about Cyrus a few years ago. '' VanDerWerff praised the action sequence at the end of the episode, however, calling it `` high quality stuff for the show. '' Jason Hughes of TV Squad stated of the Evil Monkey 's role in the episode, `` I do n't think I ever wanted this character fully explored or seen by anyone else in the house (... ) The character lost some of its mystique and charm.
