Leave it to Stan Smith to turn a simple homework assignment into a potential global catastrophe. In this Monday’s episode of “American Dad!,” titled “Guardian,” Stan’s attempt to help Steve with his math homework goes wildly, hilariously off the rails.

When Steve struggles with a math problem, Stan, ever the resourceful CIA agent, decides to “help” by dusting off an old military computer. What could go wrong? Well, apparently, quite a bit. Stan’s actions inadvertently trigger a nuclear countdown, leaving the Smith family scrambling to avert total annihilation.

Expect classic “American Dad!” absurdity as the family grapples with this impending disaster. Roger, the alien, is undoubtedly lurking somewhere in the midst of the chaos, likely adding fuel to the fire with one of his outlandish schemes.

“American Dad!” airs Monday, March 17th at 10:00 PM ET on TBS.
