bullet::::- rupert (voiced by david boat in "road to the north pole") – a stuffed teddy bear that belongs to one-year-old stewie griffin. though inanimate, rupert has become his personal confidant and best friend. stewie confides all his secrets and machinations in rupert, and often gets upset when rupert does not respond. rupert has been known to double as a pistol when needed "peter, peter, caviar eater". rupert has been damaged several times. the first time in a flashback in "stu & stewie's excellent adventure", stewie argued with brian about the economy and brian decided to eat one of rupert's legs. stewie got the leg back after a while. the second time involved encountering an unfamiliar rottweiler dog in "stewie loves lois". rupert was torn to shreds but was later sewn back together by lois. in "a very special family guy freakin' christmas", stewie tears rupert in two, after waking up from a santa claus-themed nightmare. in "killer queen", stewie shoots rupert in the head with a gun rather than risk letting him die a worse death when he sees the cover of a queen album. in "the man with two brians", he is humped by new brian for two hours. stewie is then shown dragging a body into the garbage, later revealed to be new brian. at the end of the episode stewie is shown crying in the shower and washing rupert in despair, constantly reassuring him that it was not his fault. in "chick cancer", when stewie married olivia fuller, he had rupert officiate the ceremony. "8 simple rules for buying my teenage daughter" had the creation of stewpert, a being where stewie and rupert were fused together after stewie activated his teleportation device before he realized rupert was inside, in reference to brundlefly of "the fly". stewie had several times referred to him as gay. stewie accused rupert of choosing to watch the boys in "road to rhode island" as opposed to watching their bags as stewie has told him to, much to stewie's chagrin. in the episode "road to rupert". brian accidentally sells rupert causing both brian and stewie (after brian confesses to selling rupert by accident) to head off to the swiss alps to retrieve him from the family that he was sold to, eventually challenging the father of the family to a ski race to either get him back or give the family brian as the stakes, stewie does not respect the rules and throws hot tea in the other young boy' eyes blinding him long enough to grab rupert, but stewie later says that he was through with rupert and was too old for him, saying "...after all, brian, i'm nearly one." stewie has also imagined rupert as a muscular, human male a few times, including in "road to the north pole", where he builds a buff rupert snowman in the opening credit sequence. however, rupert retains his teddy bear head. in a dvd exclusive scene in "excellence in broadcasting", stewie explores the experience of masturbating and in his fantasy buff rupert makes out with an equally buff brian while stewie is tied to the bed. in the episode "lois comes out of her shell", rupert's head is ripped off by stewie's evil pet turtle sheldon who stewie enters a fight with in return. in "total recall", the factory that made rupert demands all bears are sent back due to them becoming a choking hazard. lois in shock sends him back and brian and stewie go on a life-threatening quest to get him back, only just saving rupert (and stewie) from instant death on a furnace. as they return home, stewie celebrates with rupert only for rupert's eye to come off and stewie to swallow it supposedly killing him with chris who witnessed the scene casually shouting "mom, stewie's dead". in the episode "quagmire's quagmire", stewie must decide whether to "play" with rupert anymore after lois finds his newborn plush toy, a blue, scruffy looking, bow-tied teddy bear named oscar who was apparently given to him by babs pewterschmidt (his maternal grandmother) when stewie was born. this fact is stated by meg who is in the attic, organizing items from boxes along with lois. stewie treats rupert like a nagging wife juxtaposed to oscar's imaginary role as the still loved ex-girlfriend. in "stewie, chris & brian's excellent adventure", rupert tells the other stuffed animals that he is straight after stewie and brian leave with chris in the time machine. in "dog bites bear", brian accidentally destroys rupert while drunk but later replaces him with an identical looking bear that stewie believes to be rupert having returned from the dead.
