MAN: The year is 2006,
and young Eric Cartman cannot wait
for the new Nintendo Wii to come out.
Unable to cope with the wait any longer,
Eric decides to freeze himself for three weeks.
But a freak avalanche makes Eric impossible to find,
and so he remains frozen for 500 years.

Whoa! Steady!
This way, otters!
This is it -- New New Hampshire.
We have risked much bringing you here, time child.
Can it.
You otters may have evolved to the point you can talk,
but I don't need lectures.
Don't let the time child out of your sight.
He could try to run.
We have a deal, Blavius.
As long as I get what I want, you have nothing to worry about.

Something is spooking the ostriches.
Sure. This is monarch land now.
Probably jarvis probes everywhere.
Here it is! We have arrived!
Hold!
This is it, time child -- the old Museum of Technology,
abandoned long ago.
Let's get what you want, time child, and get out of here.
[ Music continues ]
Over here!
Yes! Here! I-It's here!
The Nintendo Wii.
I've waited so long for this.
All right, time child.
We've filled our side of the bargain.
Now return with us to Otter Bay.
Sorry, Blavius. I've got other plans.
[ Beeping ]
No!
It was a trick!
Science damn you, time child!
I got it! I got the Wii!
MAN: Time child, you've returned!
We thought for sure you had died in the thobart plant!
Yeah. Lucky for me the otters believed I was on their side.
Do me a favor.
Next time I'm in a recessed biocave,
don't send me a level-two homing call.
T.C., wait!
Oh, I can't wait! This is gonna be so awesome!
Get out of my way!
You gained the otters' trust?!
Were you wearing an information crystal?
Here.
Science be praised. This could end the war!
You've done a great thing, T.C. How can we repay you?
Just send a maintenance guy to my room!
I want this Nintendo hooked up to my float screen now!
Come on.
Come on!
Dude, what is taking so long? I want to play!
Uh, what kind of output does this have?
This is some ancient super-VHS output or something.
I can't connect it to your float screen.
There's got to be some way to hook it up!
It's the freakin' future!
It may be the future for you,
but I can't hook up anything to a float screen
without at least a laser-seven output.
You got to be [bleep] me!
Science damn it!
I am so [bleep] sick of the future!
T.C., what's wrong?
I'll tell you what's wrong.
I've been waiting 500 years to play the Nintendo Wii,
and if I don't get to play real soon, I'm gonna bust a nut!
Well, we're all glad you're back.
I know somebody who's missed you very much.
Come on in, K-10!
- [ Light music plays ] - Bark, bark.
Hello, Eric. I have missed you.
Suck my balls, K-10. I'm not in the mood.
Fellow atheists, the time child has returned
with information on our sworn enemies,
the Allied Atheist Alliance!
They have started digging for clams in sector J-7.
If we mount an all-out attack,
we can wipe out their food supply!
But those are civilian otters.
We cannot tolerate the otters!
Their science is flawed!
Their answer to the great question is different from ours.
Yes, but sending out all our ships at the same time --
It would leave our city exposed.
That's why we have to be super-duper sure
that nobody finds out we're doing it.
The United Atheist Alliance
is about to send out all its defense ships
to take down the Allied Atheist Alliance's clam fields!
Praise science!
This is your chance, young Shpeck,
to avenge your father's death.
Careful, son.
Just because their science leads them to a different answer
to the great question
doesn't mean we have the right to kill them all.
No.
Our answer to the great question is the only logical one.
Our science is great.
Let us not forget the great Richard Dawkins,
who finally freed the world of religion long ago.
Dawkins knew that logic and reason
were the way of the future.
But it wasn't until he met his beautiful wife
that he learned using logic and reason isn't enough.
You have to be a dick
to everyone who doesn't think like you.
Prepare all the troops.
We will level the United Atheist Alliance to the ground!

Why didn't anyone tell me there was a timephone?
Why does it matter? Bark, bark.
Don't you see?
If I get one of those phones, I can call myself in the past
and tell me not to freeze myself!
Then I can go back to my time... and play Nintendo Wii.
Bark, bark! That phone is for crank-calling only.
Using it in the way you described is illegal.
I care! Where's the closest toy store?

But it is not open yet.
Come on.

Ugh, finally!

I want one of those timephone things.
Ah. The Crank Prank Timephone. Sure.

this is for prank-calling the past only, right?
Yeah, yeah. I'm only gonna crank-call people.

I want the name and address of anybody
who's bought a timephone from this guy in the past week.

The United Atheist Alliance has taken the bait!
Soon they will send their ships out
to destroy our decoy clam fields.
And while their ships are away,
the United Atheist League intends to attack them.

for when the United Atheist League
attacks the United Atheist Alliance,
we will charge in and kill them all!

They go around chopping down trees for tables

How logical is that?
Yes!
The great Dawkins said we cannot tolerate those
who don't use reason!
How reasonable is it to eat off wood instead of your tummy?
Well, perhaps the great Dawkins wasn't so wise.
Oh, he was intelligent.
But some of the most intelligent otters I've ever known
were completely lacking in common sense.
Maybe some otters do need to believe in something.

you drank a bunch of Ovaltine and put Clyde Frog in the closet

who can understand this.

I'm not going to help you freeze yourself, Cartman.
It's a stupid idea.
No, see, I know it's a stupid idea,
because I actually did freeze myself.

Atheism? No.

Yes, long ago we realized
isms are great for those who are rational.
But in the hands of irrational people,
isms always lead to violence.

Of course there's war!
