| - Alias No information Origin No information Occupation No information Powers/Skills No information Hobby No information Goals No information Type of Villain No information A devout Irish-American Catholic, Francis Griffin has had a rocky relationship with his stepson, Peter, over the years. However, he does love Peter, though he may not like him. Francis is extremely religious and honors Jesus, God and the Pope. However, he is extremely stubborn with his views, as when the Pope tries to convince Francis of a view that differs from his own, he deems Pope to be an untrue Catholic. All Francis believes in is work, work and more work which obviously leads to conflict with Peter. It is revealed after Francis' death that he was Peter's stepfather, not his biological father. In the episode "Stu & Stewie's Excellent Adventure" he can be seen attending Chris' Future Wedding, even though he is dead. Due to canon in the series, it is possible that it is another man who resembles him. Also, he would logically not be alive in the future unless when Stewie stopped his near death experience, Francis Griffin's future was somehow altered (along with the futures of other characters) and he would not have originally died. His ghost reappears in "Family Goy". Although Francis loves Peter, he does hate Lois because she's Protestant, which is why on the wedding day, he taped a sign saying "To A Protestant Whore" underneath the "Just Married" sign on back of the limo. He also hit Brian with his bible for questioning and mocking him. It was after his death that both Lois and Brian celebrated on the yard together that Francis was dead behind Peter's back. Though Francis is a Catholic, in the episode "The Father, the Son, and the Holy Fonz" he says that Peter's new religion was stupid, but at the end of the episode he is seen praying and kneeling for Arthur Fonzarelli, the character who Peter's religion is based on.

When the Pope was fine with Peter's interfaith marriage to Lois and tries to convince Francis to accept Peter's marriage, Francis deems the Pope to be an untrue Catholic as seen in "Holy Crap". The Pope would eventually hire him as a special assistant at the end of the episode, as Francis was forced to retire from the Pawtucket Mill earlier in the episode. All Francis believed in was work, but eventually settled in a retirement home. In "The Father, the Son, and the Holy Fonz", he baptizes his grandson Stewie with tainted holy water. When Peter starts the Church of the Fonz, he finds it extremely stupid. He even resorts to collaborating with Brian on sabotaging the religion. Afterwards, it was revealed he was the lone remaining follower of Fonzism. His divorce from Thelma was revealed by her in "Mother Tucker". When she begins dating Tom Tucker, Peter considers him his father figure because of Francis's constant disapproval. In "Peter's Two Dads", he attends Meg's birthday party, bringing her a cookie from the retirement home as a present. A drunken Peter falls on him while riding a unicycle, mortally injuring him. He suffered crushed ribs, busted spleen and a punctured lung. His final words were "Peter, you're a fat stinkin' drunk!” After Peter goes to a therapy session, it was revealed that Francis was not Peter's biological father, but an Irishman named Mickey McFinnigan. A series of memories show Francis constantly told Peter this. His ghost helps remind Peter that he is a “fat stinking drunk”, which helps Peter realize a way to convince McFinnegan that he really was his son. His ghost reappears in "Family Goy", telling Peter to stop embracing Judaism.
