In "Big Trouble in Little Langley", Stan tries to drive a wedge between Francine and her adopted parents in order to get rid of them by revealing that they have left Francine out of their will, leaving everything to Gwen.

As a result of Hayley's confrontation with Gwen, she plans on setting the school on fire and framing Francine for it.
