Announcer 1:Previously on South Park: An air of sobriety fills laboratory as the men of South Park gather to find out which one of them fathered this boy.
Announcer 2:Who is Eric Cartman's Father? At the end of tonight's episode, you will know the answer.
[Theme Song]
[South Park Genetic Engineering Ranch]
Mephesto:And now, to continue, the father is indeed someone in this room.
Cartman:Man, this feels like the longest minute of my life.
Kenny miraculously appears in the lab.
Stan:Oh, hey Kenny.
Mephesto:Gentlemen, the father is.
The lights go out.
Mr. Garrison:Hey, what the hell's going on?
Jimbo:It's a power outage.
Two gunshots are fired.
Chef:Is everybody ok? That sounded like a gunshot.
Officer Barbrady:Oh my God, look!
Kenny:Oh my God, they killed Mephesto.
Kyle:You bastards!
Mr. Garrison:Mephesto's been shot.
Chef:Is he dead?
Jimbo:Hey, this window's shot out too. That means the killer was not somebody in this room.
Mr. Garrison:Then who was it?
Announcer:Who shot Mephesto? Was it the school counselor, or was it Ms. Crabtree, or was it....
Cartman:Hey, wait a minute, I didn't find out who my father was!
Announcer:Or was it Mrs. Broslofski.
Chef:Wait, he's still breathing, he's not dead!
Cartman:God damnit, who's my father?!?
Chef:We have to get him to the hospital.
Cartman:You've got to be kidding me!
Chef:Come on children!
Cartman:Ehhhh.
Mr. Broslofski:Oh the poor kid, it must be hell for him going through all this.
Mrs. Cartman looks down in grief.
Mrs. Cartman:Hmmm.
Jimbo:There's a murderer free in South Park. We have to find out who it is before they kill again.
Mr. Garrison:Yeh, God only knows who they'll kill next.
Announcer:Who will they kill next? Will it be Jimbo, Barbrady, the Denver Broncos?
[Chef's Car, en route to Hell's Pass Hospital]
Cartman:Is he awake yet?
Kyle:He's bleeding pretty bad back here.
Chef:Don't let him bleed on my Meredith Baxter-Birney memorial towel.
Kyle:What's a Meredith Baxter-Birney memorial towel?
Chef:I was actually with Meredith Baxter-Birney in this actual car, and afterwards we used that towel...wait a minute, why am I telling you this?
Stan:Could you pull over so I can get out?
Chef:What? We have to get to the hospital.
Stan:I have to get out first. I'm not gonna make it, I can't stand hospitals.
Chef:Sorry Stan, we just gotta drop Mephesto off, and then we can get out of there, alright?
Kyle:Man, it's really starting to snow. I hope they don't close the roads.
Cartman:They can't. Mephesto can't die.
Kyle:Maybe it's better you don't know who your father is Cartman.
Cartman:No way dude, I can't stand to leave things unfinished. It's like when you hear the first part of that song, "Come Sail Away," by Styx. If I hear the first part of that song, I have to finish it.
Kyle:Really?
Cartman:Yeh, I ju, I can't do anything till it's done.
[Silence]
Kyle:[Singing]I'm sailing away.
Cartman:No, don't!
Kyle:Set an open course for the virgin sea.
[Silence]
Cartman:Eee...ffff...For I've got to be free
Free to face the life that's ahead of me
On board I'm the captain
So climb aboard
We'll search for tomorrow
On every shore
And I'll try, oh Lord, I'll try
To carry on
Dee bee bedee
Bee bee bedee
Bee bee bedee
Bee bee bedee
'Gathering of angels appeared above our heads
They sang to us this song of hope and this is what they said, they said
Come sail away
Come sail away
Come sail away with me
Lord, Come sail away
Come sail away
Come sail away with me
I thought that they were angels
But to my surprise
We climbed aboard their starship
And headed for the skies
Come sail away
Come sail away
Come sail away with me
Lord, Come sail away
Come sail away
Come sail away with me, Lord
Kyle:Whoa dude.
[City Hall]
Jimbo:What are we going to do mayor? This killer is on the loose.
Sheila Broslofski:We can't even leave our homes for fear of our children's safety.
Marsh:Uh, where are our children?
[Silence]
Everybody looks around.
Mayor McDaniels:Officer Barbrady, let's pretend for one second that we had a competent law enforcer in this town. What would he do?
Officer Barbrady:Hmm, that's a good question mayor. Let me get right on that, with thinking.
[Silence]
Sid:Mayor, mayor.
Mayor McDaniels:Eh, the press is here.
Sid:My name is Sid Greenfield. I'm the director from Los Angeles for America's Most Wanted.
Mayor McDaniels:You certainly made it up here quickly.
Sid:We're desperate for stories.
Sid is nudged by his companion.
Sid:And, and this one is so compelling.
Mayor McDaniels:Really??
Sid:Sure, this story has everything. People, furniture, talking. It's a real American story.
Officer Barbrady:Hey, I thought of something. Uh, no, wait, that's subtraction.
Mayor McDaniels:Mr. director-person, what exactly do you want to do?
Jimbo:Mayor, shouldn't we be focusing....
Mayor McDaniels:Shh.
Sid:We just want to do a re-creation of the story for our show. Then we'll flash a number on the screen that people can call if they have any information regarding the identity or location of the shooter. That's it. You win, we win, America wins.
Mayor McDaniels:Are you sure this wouldn't make our little town look dangerous?
Sid:Don't worry mayor, America's Most Wanted is not about violence, it's about family.
Camera Man:It is?
Mayor McDaniels:Well, in that case, I guess it's ok.
Sid:Great, we'll get started with auditions immediately. What part should we cast first?
Announcer:Who will the director cast first? Will it be Mr. Garrison, Officer Barbrady, Chef?
[Unplanned Parenthood Clinic]
Mrs. Cartman:I want to have…an abortion.
Receptionist:Well, we can do that. This must be a very difficult time for you Mrs....
Mrs. Cartman:Cartman, yes, it's such a hard decision, but I just don't feel that I can raise a child in this screwy world.
Receptionist:Yes, Ms. Cartman, if you don't feel fit to raise a child, an abortion probably is the answer. Do you know the actual time of conception?
Mrs. Cartman:About eight years ago.
Receptionist:I see, so the fetus is....
Mrs. Cartman:Eight years old.
Receptionist:Ms. Cartman, uh, eight years old is a little late to be considering abortion.
Mrs. Cartman:Really?
Receptionist:Yes, this is what we would refer to as the fortieth trimester.
Mrs. Cartman:But I just don't think I'm a fit mother.
Receptionist:But, but we prefer to abort babies a little earlier on. In fact, there's a law against abortions after the second trimester.
Mrs. Cartman:Well, I think you need to keep your laws off of my body!
Receptionist:Hmm, I'm afraid I can't help you Ms. Cartman. If you want to change the law, you'll have to speak with your congressman.
Mrs. Cartman:Well, that's exactly what I intend to do! Good day!
[Outside Hell's Pass Hospital]
Chef:Come on children. We gotta find a doctor.
Stan:Uh, I can't do it dude.
Kyle:Come on Stan, hospitals aren't all that bad.
Cartman:Yeh, stop being a wuss.
[Inside Hell's Pass Hospital]
Chef:Doctor!
Doctor:One moment, please! Nurse, I need 20 CCs of Sodium Pentathol, stat.
Kyle:Whoa dude, she doesn't have any arms.
Doctor:We're an equal opportunity employer here son.
Nurse Goodly spits the needle into the Doctor's hand.
Chef:Doctor, we've got a shot cracker outside.
Doctor:I'll be right with you right after I inject this man with a long needle.
Stan:Oh man, I'm gonna be sick.
Doctor:There there young man, medical science is nothing to be afraid of.
Stan:Uh.
Nurse Goodly:Oooh, I think you're hitting the bone.
Stan:Uhh.
Doctor:Yes, I can hear the needle scraping against the bone inside.
Some blood shoots toward stan.
Doctor:Ooops, he's hemorrhaging.
Stan:Dah!
Doctor:Oops, his head fell off.
Stan:I'm getting out of here.
Kyle:Stan.
Doctor:Oh, some people just have a weak stomach.
[America's Most Wanted Auditions]
Mephesto Actor:And the father of Eric Cartman is...bang...uh. Jiminy, I've been shot.
Sid:Oh, thank you very much, we'll get back to you. I think I've seen enough Genetic Engineers, let's move on to the auditions for the part of Mr. Uh Garrison.
Assistant:Call the Mr. Garrison auditions.
Mr. Garrison Tryout:Boy, I sure hope I'm not Eric Cartman's father Mr. Hat.
Mr. Hat Tryout:You can say that again Mr. Garrison.
Sid:All right, not bad. Let's keep him on the top pile. Next.
Mr. Garrison:I sure hope that I'm not Eric Cartman's father Mr. Hat.
Mr. Hat:You can say that again Mr. Garrison.
Sid:Thank you! Next.
Mr. Garrison:What?!?
Sid:Next.
Mr. Garrison Actor:I sure hope that I'm not Eric Cartman's father Mr. Hat.
Mr. Hat Actor:You can say that again Mr. Garrison.
Sid:Perfect! You got it! Let's move on to the Chefs.
[Congressman O'Reilly's Bedroom]
Mrs. Cartman:And so you see Congressman O'Reilly, that's why I think abortion laws should be changed.
Congressman O'Reilly:Well, all I know is that third trimester abortions are illegal, I don't really know anything about fortieth.
Mrs. Cartman:But the person at unplanned parenthood said you were who I had talk to about changing the law.
Congressman O'Reilly:No, no, I think you've got to talk to the governor about that stuff.
Mrs. Cartman:Oh dear.
[Hell's Pass Hospital]
Doctor:Well, this is about all I can do for him.
Cartman:Can't you get him to talk? I have to know who my father is.
Doctor:Sorry son, it might be a while.
Cartman jumps onto Mephesto and starts slugging him.
Cartman:Wake up you son of a bitch!
Chef:Whoa.
Doctor:Now son, that's not going to do him any good. I'll let you know if there's a change in his condition.
Cartman:I can't wait anymore. What am I supposed to do?
Kyle:Hey, Cartman.
Cartman:What?
Kyle:[Singing]I'm sailing a....
[Silence]
Cartman:[Singing]way.
Set an open course for the virgin sea.
Cause I've got to be free
Free to face the life that's ahead of me
On board I'm the captain
So climb aboard
We'll search for tomorrow
Stan:Okay, okay, let's get out of here now.
Kyle:I don't know if that's going to be too easy.
Cartman:...carry on
Doctor:My God, that's a hell of a storm.
Stan:Oh, weak.
Cartman:...Some happy, some sad
I think of childhood friends and the dreams we had
We live happily forever, so....
[America's Most Wanted Studio]
Sid:God I hate mountains. This better not push back our shooting schedule.
A complete set of Mephesto's laboratory is set up.
Sid:[Into a MegaPhone]Ok people; let's rehearse the re-enactment from the top before we shoot it.
Sid:Who's that?
Assistant:Oh, that's TV's Eric Roberts, we were able to get him to play the part of the little monkey guy.
Sid:Oh, talk about washed up huh? Great to have you Eric.
Sid:[Into a MegaPhone]Here we go, and action.
Mephesto Actor:I want to announce who the father is.
Sid:Bang.
Mephesto Actor:Oh, I've been shot.
Barbrady Actor:Nobody move. I'm a law officer.
Chef Actor:My God, I think he's gone into cardiac arrest.
Barbrady Actor:You seem somewhat unnerved by this Chef.
Chef Actor:Are you accusing me Barbrady? Because if you are accuse, don't hide behind your clever riddles.
Barbrady Actor:Our differences must be set aside for now Mr. Chef. I'm simply a man, a man trying to do my job.
Officer Barbrady:Wow, this is a good movie.
[Emergency Room]
Various people are awaiting help from the doctor.
One has a knife in his arm.
Another has an axe in his head.
Cartman:Come sail away
Come sail away
Come sail away with me
Lord, Come sail away
Come sail away
Come sail away with me
Stan:Oh, dude, when can we get out of here?
A lady is bleeding from the neck.
Lady:Doctor, I can't focus.
Doctor:We're doing the best we can ma'am. They've closed the pass, and none of the other doctors can get through. For now it's just me and Nurse Goodly.
Nurse Goodly holds a stethoscope in her mouth.
She flips the scope into the air, catching it again in her mouth.
Chef:Wait a second, they've closed the pass?
Doctor:Yes, I'm afraid we're critically understaffed. Unless we get help soon, all these people in here are completely fucked.
[Gasp]
Doctor:Metaphorically speaking that is.
Cartman:What about Mephesto, are you taking care of him?!?
Doctor:He's on full life support and breathing fine. He shouldn't need any help, so long as the power doesn't go out.
The power goes out.
Doctor:Hoof, who didn't see that coming a mile away, huh?
[Commercial]
[America's Most Wanted Show]
AMW Announcer:Tonight on America's Most Wanted: a shooter's on the loose in Colorado and the residents are up in arms. Here's your host, John Walsh.
John Walsh:Good evening, and welcome to America's Most Wanted. Tonight terror invaded the small mountain community of South Park, Colorado, when Dr. Alfonse Mephesto was gunned down in his laboratory. America's most wanted has reconstructed this heinous crime in hopes that your calls can help solve the case.
[Bang]
Mephesto Actor:I've been shot.
Mr. Garrison Actor:My God Mr. Hat, get some help.
Mr. Hat Actor:Right away Mr. Garrison.
Eric Roberts:No. No. My lifetime partner and friend, gone, taken away in the wink of an eye. Oh fortune, how you mock me.
Sid:What the? Eric Roberts is improving lines again.
Chef:I'm going to get the man to hospital, who will help me?
Eric Roberts:This is not a world I want to live in; it is an angry....
Sid:Damn it!!!!
A tree falls over outside, taking the power lines with it.
Sid:What the hell is this?
Crewman:We've lost the feed to L.A.
John Walsh:Uh, we, we seemed to have lost our link-up to the South Park crew. So I guess we'll be going to our feature movie, "Who Framed Roger Rabbit."
Announcer:Who framed Roger Rabbit? Was it Jimbo, Mr. Garrison, Chef?
Sid:Somebody go see why we lost the hook-up.
Jimbo:Holy smokes, that blizzard is getting crazy.
[Hell's Pass Hospital]
There's a lot of screaming.
Nurse Goodly:Don't panic anybody. The power lines are down, but the backup generator is running just fine.
Doctor:Nurse, I could use some help in here.
Nurse Goodly:Coming.
Cartman:Lady, is Mephesto going to be ok?
Nurse Goodly:Yes, for now. But I'm afraid the generator won't run for long. The batteries run out in half-an-hour. Time is very short.
Doctor:Nurse, please. I need another pair of hands in here.
Nurse Goodly glares back.
Doctor:Oh, sorry.
[Governor's Bedroom]
Mrs. Cartman:Don't you see Governor; I should have a right to have an abortion if I want one.
Governor:Mra, I don't know, I, I might need some more convincing.
[Chuckle]
Mrs. Cartman:I mean, what right do I have bringing another child into this overpopulated world? Then again, I should have thought of that before having sex. Then again.... Oh, I just don't know.
[Hell's Pass Hospital]
Doctor:Please Mr. Chef, I have over a hundred people to attend to here, and only myself and Nurse Goodly.
Chef:What do you want me to do?
Doctor:Do you know anything about surgery?
Chef:I used to watch Quincy.
Doctor:What?!? Why the hell didn't you say so?!? Put on some scrubs. Boys, I'm making you all honorary doctors. You can help us save these people's lives.
Stan:No way dude!
[America's Most Wanted Studio]
Jimbo:Well, we're not going anywhere for a long time.
Sid:We're snowed in?
Mayor McDaniels:Yes, we're trapped.
Mr. Garrison:Like sailors on a submarine.
Mayor McDaniels:My God, this is the worst storm I've ever seen.
Assistant:Oh, I have to get out of here; I haven't eaten since breakfast.
Officer Barbrady:Yeh, I'm getting hungry too.
Jimbo:I hope you all realize what we might be facing here. Our only option may be to eat each other, to stay alive.
[Gasp]
[Dramatic Music]
Sid:Uh, it's only been like four hours. Aren't you resorting to cannibalism a little quickly?
Jimbo:That's the law of the land Mr. Director. I don't eat pretty, but if a few of us must die so the rest can stay alive, so be it.
Mayor McDaniels:But how do we decide who?
Jimbo:Well, we draw straws.
Sid:Now wait a minute, we all had a big breakfast. Can't you people go without eating for a little while?
Jimbo:Calm down soldier! We need every person here to keep his head! Barbrady, fetch some straws.
Sid:Well, who the hell made you the boss anyway?
Announcer:Who the hell made Jimbo boss? Was it Barbrady, Chef, Mr. Ga....
[Hell's Pass Hospital]
Doctor:This man's appendix has burst. I have no choice but to operate now with our limited power. I need you all to be strong for me. Nurse Goodly will take care of the Anesthesia. Chef, you act as her arms. Boys, you have to help with suction and bandages. Ready?
Stan:No.
Doctor:Ok, first I'll make an incision on the chest, over the heart.
Stan:Oh boy.
Stan throws up into the chest cavity.
Kyle:Dude, you barfed into the incision.
Cartman:Sweet!
Doctor:Suction!
Kenny handles suction.
Cartman:Hey, who's screwing with the lights?
Announcer:Who is screwing with the lights? Is it Barbrady, or Jimbo, or the 1991 Denver Broncos?
Cartman:That is really starting to piss me off.
[America's Most Wanted Studio]
Jimbo:All right, so far everybody has a long piece of straw. We'll keep drawing.
Jimbo draws a long straw.
Jimbo:Whew.
Mr. Garrison draws a long straw.
Mr. Garrison:Whew.
Officer Barbrady draws the last straw, it is also long.
Officer Barbrady:Oooh.
Jimbo:Wait a minute, where the hell is the short one?
Officer Barbrady:The short what?
Jimbo:Damn it Barbrady! When you draw straws you're supposed to have one of them short. That's how you decide who loses.
Officer Barbrady:That's not how I played it.
Mr. Garrison:Uhh, could we hurry this up? My stomach is growling.
[Hell's Pass Hospital]
Doctor:I found a map that shows the location of a backup generator. Apparently they built a large, self-sustaining, generator for just this kind of emergency, but it's out and away from the hospital.
Chef:So how do we get to it?
Doctor:We must split up into two teams. Team A and Team B. Team A will consist of myself, Stan, Kyle, Eric, Chef and Nurse Goodly. Team B will consist of Kenny.
Kenny looks shocked.
Doctor:Now listen closely Team B; your goal will be to turn on the backup generator. To do this, you must brave the storm outside, and get into this sewage duct. Meanwhile, Team A will go to the holding area, here, where this is a television and some cocoa. We will drink the cocoa and watch family programming until Team B makes it through the sewage duct. By that time Team B, remember that's you Kenny, should reach the outer core of the generator. It will be a cold and dangerous climb to the top, and there could be velociraptors here. Once you reach the top you should be able to get a clear view through this window of us drinking cocoa and watching television. Then you can proceed down into the generator and power it on. Are there any questions?
Cartman:No, that sounds pretty sweet to me.
Doctor:Right then, let's do it. Go Team!!!
Kenny:Huh!
[America's Most Wanted Studio]
Mr. Garrison:Uh, can't go on. So hungry.
Mayor McDaniels:We're all going to die in this horrible place.
Jimbo:We have to have the energy to make it through the night. We have to eat.
Sid:How can we? How could we live with ourselves?
Jimbo:There's only one answer; eat Eric Roberts.
Mayor McDaniels:Yes, of, of course, nobody gives a shit about Eric Roberts.
Mr. Garrison:Eat Eric Roberts.
Eric Roberts:No, no, please.
[Commercial]
[America's Most Wanted Studio]
What's left of Eric Roberts sits with flys around it.
Ned, Jimbo and the mayor sit around a flaming trash can.
They are eating some of Eric Roberts.
Mayor McDaniels:Well, there's no going back now. We're cannibals.
[Burp]
Mayor McDaniels:God save us.
Jimbo:God wants you to live mayor. Fight!
Assistant:Well, I have to admit Eric Roberts was much juicier than I expected.
Sid:Aww.
Mr. Garrison:This snow just isn't letting up. We're gonna die here, I know it.
Jimbo:What time is it Barbrady?
Officer Barbrady:It's almost midnight.
Mr. Garrison:Uh, I can't go on.
Mr. Garrison passes out.
Jimbo:We'll give the storm another hour, after that we might have to eat again.
Sid:What?!? Christ, are you people diabetic or something?
[Hell's Pass Hospital]
Doctor:Team B, come in Team B.
Kenny:This is Team B.
Doctor:Listen, Team B, we found another path to the generator. There's actually a nice heated walkway to it, so you don't need to walk through all that sewage.
Kenny:Are you fucking kidding me, making me crawl through that fucking thing.
Doctor:Oh, well, forget I said that then. Listen, Team B, you should be seeing a large drift of snow with some metal sticking out of it just to your left.
Kenny:Yep, I see it Team A.
Doctor:Good, head towards it. Team A out.
Cartman:What if Mephesto never wakes up, and I never find out who my father is?
Kenny approaches the generator.
A shadow of a velociraptor appears on the generator.
[America's Most Wanted Studio]
The bodies of Sid and his assistant sit next to Eric Roberts' corpse.
Ned, Jimbo Barbrady and the mayor are snacking.
Mayor McDaniels:My God, what a harrowing tale of human drama this is. All of us doing what we must to survive.
Jimbo:It is amazing what people can do under stress. Just look at the Pyramids. Nobody knows how they built those, or who.
Announcer:Who built the Pyramids? Was it the Babylonians, Officer Barbrady, Samaritans?
[Hell's Pass Hospital]
Kenny is at the opened generator.
Kenny:Team A this is Team B.
Doctor:Roger Team B. He's reached the backup generator. Team B, can you see the two copper nodes?
Kenny:Roger.
Doctor:Good, now is there a wire connecting them?
Kenny:Uh uh.
Doctor:Damn, the wire connecting the nodes is gone. We need to complete the circuit or we're screwed.
Kyle:Do you have any wire here?
Doctor:There's no time. Once these lights flicker out, all the patients on life support are going to die.
Kenny:Wait a second guys.
Doctor:No Kenny, you can't. There must be some other way. He's going to make the connection himself, with his hands.
Kyle:No, he'll die!
Cartman:Go Kenny!
Doctor:Kenny! Noooo!!!
Kenny:Ahhh!!!!
Stan:Oh my God, they've killed Kenny!
Kyle:You bastards!
Chef:The power!
Doctor:Quickly, get the scanner running again.
A scanner is wheeled over.
Doctor:We've got a chance now.
[The White House]
President Clinton:Well, ok Mrs. Cartman, I'll legalize fortieth trimester abortions for you.
Mrs. Cartman:Oh thank you, thank you.
President Clinton:We'll have the pregnancy terminated immediately.
Mrs. Cartman:Terminated?
President Clinton:Well yes, that's what an abortion is.
Mrs. Cartman:Oh no, I, I didn't mean that. I meant the other thing you can do. What's that other 'A' word.
President Clinton:Adoption?
Mrs. Cartman:Yes, that's what I mean. Adoption.
President Clinton:Well, that's pretty different.
Mrs. Cartman:Oh, I should just tell my son the truth about everything myself. Good day Mr. President.
[Hell's Pass Hospital]
Doctor:Well, we made it. The power is on, the snow is melting, and your friend Mephesto is doing fine.
Mephesto:Where, where am I?
Doctor:You're at the hospital Mr. Mephesto. You were shot. Now we don't know who tried to shoot you, but....
Mephesto:Oh, I'm sure it was my brother again, he tries to shoot me every month.
Chef:Oh....
Doctor:Where's the little fat boy? He'll be delighted that Mephesto is awake.
Chef:He went off looking for Mr. Kenny.
[By the Generator]
A frozen Kenny is outside of the Generator.
There are some frozen rats on Kenny.
Stan:He was a good friend, and I'll miss him.
Kyle:He was very brave. He risked his life so that Mephesto could live.
Cartman:Yeh, and now he's a Freezy Pop.
[Silence]
Stan:Dude, do you think if we hit him with a shovel he'd shatter?
Kyle:I don't know, let's find out.
[Outside America's Most Wanted Studio]
Mr. Garrison:Oh, it's over, we're free.
Officer Barbrady:Yes, but at what cost Mr. Garrison, at what cost?
Jimbo:Listen everybody; we did what we had to in there.
Mayor McDaniels:But, how will be live with ourselves now?
Ned:Mmmone day at a time mayor, mmone day at a time.
[Song playing]
Mr. Garrison:Well, I'm bringing home some Eric Roberts in a doggy bag. Does anybody else want some?
[Commercial]
[Hell's Pass Hospital]
Mephesto:I'm glad you could all come. I can finally reveal who the father of Eric Cartman is. But first, I want to thank Kenny McCormick for sacrificing his life....
Cartman:Just tell us already!!!
Mephesto:All right, all right. The father of Eric Cartman is.... Say, did anybody see that Terrance and Phillip special last month? Wasn't that just the funniest thing?
Cartman:Damn it tell me who my father is!!!!!!!
Mephesto:Sorry, as I said before, the father is somebody in this room. The father is...Mrs. Cartman.
[Gasp]
Chef:What?
Mrs. Cartman:Yes, it's true.
Mr. Garrison:No, that doesn't make sense.
Mephesto:Yes, it took quite a while for me to understand as well. You see, Mrs. Cartman is a hermaphrodite.
Mr. Garrison:Meaning what?
Mephesto:Meaning she has both male and female genitals.
Mrs. Cartman:It's true.
Chef:You mean, at the Drunken Barn Dance, when we all got together with her, she was a he?
Mephesto:No, no, not exactly. But she did have a penis.
All of the men throw up.
Mephesto:The fact of the matter is, hermaphrodites cannot bear children, so Ms. Cartman's DNA match with Eric can only meant that she is his father, and she got another woman pregnant at the Drunken Barn Dance.
Cartman:Eh, man, this is fucking weak.
Stan:Dude, you're a big fat ass, and your mom is a hermapholite.
Mrs. Cartman:I'm sorry I never told you Eric. I just thought maybe it would be a little shocking to you.
Cartman:Oh well, geewhiz, you think so mom.
Mephesto:Well, that's that. Thank you all for playing.
Cartman:No no, wait a minute. If, if she's my dad, then who's my mom?
Announcer:Who is Eric Cartman's mother? Is it Mrs. Crabtree, Sheila Broslofski, the mayor?
Cartman:Ahh, forget it.
