This is
closed circuit television

15
00:00:37,163 --> 00:00:39,373
for South Park
Elementary School.

16
00:00:39,498 --> 00:00:41,751
And now...
"Super School News".

17
00:00:41,876 --> 00:00:46,130
The news made for students
by students.

18
00:00:46,255 --> 00:00:48,299
Welcome to
Super School News.

19
00:00:48,424 --> 00:00:49,592
I'm Jimmy Valmer.

20
00:00:49,717 --> 00:00:51,135
And I'm Rick Cartman.

21
00:00:51,260 --> 00:00:52,136
The price of milk money
will go up next month

22
00:00:52,261 --> 00:00:54,638
to forty nine cents.

23
00:00:54,764 --> 00:00:55,639
The school claims
the added money is due to

24
00:00:55,765 --> 00:00:57,767
the cow shortage
in South Park county.

25
00:00:57,892 --> 00:00:59,393
Parent-teacher conferences
will be held

26
00:00:59,518 --> 00:01:01,145
this Wednesday night
from seven to nine.

27
00:01:01,270 --> 00:01:03,522
So kids, get a lot of playing
in before you get grounded.

28
00:01:03,647 --> 00:01:04,774
And now for a look
at what's on the menu

29
00:01:04,899 --> 00:01:06,734
for school lunch today,
here's Stan Marsh.

30
00:01:06,859 --> 00:01:08,486
Eric, it looks as though
the school will be serving

31
00:01:08,611 --> 00:01:10,029
a chicken cutlet.

32
00:01:10,154 --> 00:01:11,864
Now that's traditionally
a white meat chicken breast,

33
00:01:11,989 --> 00:01:14,825
if you will, that has been
breaded and then cooked.

34
00:01:14,950 --> 00:01:16,243
I've been told there will
also be tater tots

35
00:01:16,368 --> 00:01:17,703
and a vegetable dish.

36
00:01:17,828 --> 00:01:19,872
This is really shaping up
to be uh, one fantastic lunch.

37
00:01:19,997 --> 00:01:21,665
Eric?

38
00:01:21,791 --> 00:01:23,334
Hard-hitting reporting
Stan, thanks a lot.

39
00:01:23,459 --> 00:01:24,251
And now here with
the celebrity watch

40
00:01:24,376 --> 00:01:25,503
is Butters Stotch.

41
00:01:25,628 --> 00:01:27,046
Butters, seen any
celebrities lately?

42
00:01:27,171 --> 00:01:29,006
No, not yet.

43
00:01:29,131 --> 00:01:30,424
I've been standing out
in front of the school

44
00:01:30,549 --> 00:01:31,801
for about two hours now

45
00:01:31,926 --> 00:01:33,511
and I haven't seen
any celebrities.

46
00:01:33,636 --> 00:01:34,929
About thirty minutes ago,

47
00:01:35,054 --> 00:01:37,306
I thought I saw
Sigourney Weaver...

48
00:01:37,431 --> 00:01:39,558
B-b-ut, uh, turns out
it was a dead horse.

49
00:01:39,683 --> 00:01:40,810
Alright, Butters,
keep your eyes open.

50
00:01:40,935 --> 00:01:41,852
Will do.

51
00:01:41,977 --> 00:01:44,188
More snow
for South P-park?

52
00:01:44,313 --> 00:01:47,358
Here's Token Black
with the weather.

53
00:01:47,483 --> 00:01:48,818
Jimmy and Eric, it looks
like a massive snow storm

54
00:01:48,943 --> 00:01:49,944
is heading
South Park's way.

55
00:01:50,069 --> 00:01:51,153
I asked my dad
last night,

56
00:01:51,278 --> 00:01:52,113
and he said
he heard the snowstorm

57
00:01:52,238 --> 00:01:54,782
is expected
on Tuesday, guys.

58
00:01:54,907 --> 00:01:55,866
Kyle Broflovski
now joins us

59
00:01:55,991 --> 00:01:56,992
for a look
at sports.

60
00:01:57,118 --> 00:01:58,119
And Kyle, the girls'
basketball team

61
00:01:58,244 --> 00:01:59,620
just can't
get it right.

62
00:01:59,745 --> 00:02:01,705
Another devastating loss
for the Cows last night, Eric.

63
00:02:01,831 --> 00:02:03,040
They were ahead in the game
until Kelly Anderson

64
00:02:03,165 --> 00:02:04,708
started crying because
she missed her daddy

65
00:02:04,834 --> 00:02:06,544
who is on a business trip
in Thailand.

66
00:02:06,669 --> 00:02:08,337
Kelly was so upset
she couldn't play

67
00:02:08,462 --> 00:02:09,797
and the Cows
had to forfeit.

68
00:02:09,922 --> 00:02:11,674
The Cows are on
a six and 0 slide

69
00:02:11,799 --> 00:02:13,843
since Kelly's father left
for that business trip.

70
00:02:13,968 --> 00:02:15,427
And that's all for
Super School News!

71
00:02:15,553 --> 00:02:21,100
Enjoy your day at
South Park E-e-el-

72
00:02:21,225 --> 00:02:22,935
Elementary.

73
00:02:24,937 --> 00:02:26,814
And we're... Cut!

74
00:02:26,939 --> 00:02:28,482
Alright, nice reporting
guys, nice.

75
00:02:28,607 --> 00:02:29,900
Boy that was
a great episode!

76
00:02:30,025 --> 00:02:31,402
Yeah, I think that was
one of our best shows yet.

77
00:02:31,527 --> 00:02:34,405
Boys, I'm afraid
I have some bad news.

78
00:02:34,530 --> 00:02:36,907
The school has to
cancel your show.

79
00:02:37,032 --> 00:02:38,075
What?

80
00:02:38,200 --> 00:02:39,869
For God's sake
why, Mr. Maryl?

81
00:02:39,994 --> 00:02:42,538
Well the students
just aren't watching it.

82
00:02:42,663 --> 00:02:44,874
Your rating was only
a four this whole week.

83
00:02:44,999 --> 00:02:46,333
How many
students is that?

84
00:02:46,458 --> 00:02:49,295
Four, four students
watch your show.

85
00:02:49,420 --> 00:02:52,506
And meanwhile, Craig's show
is getting a fifty-seven.

86
00:02:52,631 --> 00:02:54,508
Craig's show?

87
00:02:54,633 --> 00:02:55,801
What is that butthole
doing now?

88
00:02:55,926 --> 00:02:57,261
Oh, it's brilliant.

89
00:02:57,386 --> 00:02:59,680
It's all just video
footage of animals

90
00:02:59,805 --> 00:03:01,849
close-up with
a wide angle lens.

91
00:03:01,974 --> 00:03:05,477
Animals close-up
with a wide angle lens.

92
00:03:17,448 --> 00:03:19,575
But that's... that's crap,
that's not even TV!

93
00:03:19,700 --> 00:03:21,035
It's what
the students want.

94
00:03:21,160 --> 00:03:22,745
And its cheaper
to make than your show.

95
00:03:22,870 --> 00:03:24,872
Just one person
and a video camera.

96
00:03:24,997 --> 00:03:26,123
Craig is a genius.

97
00:03:26,248 --> 00:03:27,208
Sorry, kids.

98
00:03:28,167 --> 00:03:28,918
But, Mr. Maryl,

99
00:03:29,043 --> 00:03:30,586
we're trying to bring
the news to the students.

100
00:03:30,711 --> 00:03:31,795
They need to know
the facts

101
00:03:31,921 --> 00:03:33,505
and our news team
delivers them, very much.

102
00:03:33,631 --> 00:03:36,050
Kids don't care about
the news, boys.

103
00:03:36,175 --> 00:03:37,259
It's boring.

104
00:03:37,384 --> 00:03:38,844
Kids want
to see animals...

105
00:03:38,969 --> 00:03:39,887
close-up...

106
00:03:40,012 --> 00:03:41,639
with a
wide angle lens.

107
00:03:41,764 --> 00:03:43,557
Please, Mr. Maryl,
the news is our life.

108
00:03:43,682 --> 00:03:44,892
Without it
we have nothing.

109
00:03:45,017 --> 00:03:46,268
I'm sorry, kids.

110
00:03:46,393 --> 00:03:48,604
You should be proud
of what you've done.

111
00:03:48,729 --> 00:03:50,731
It's just that
it's kind of gay.

112
00:03:54,235 --> 00:03:56,237
You're gay!

113
00:04:02,076 --> 00:04:02,952
Gee wiz...

114
00:04:03,077 --> 00:04:05,037
We sure worked hard
on that news show.

115
00:04:05,162 --> 00:04:06,080
Apparently it doesn't
matter how hard you work.

116
00:04:06,205 --> 00:04:09,667
Hello boys, ready to
do some whistlin?

117
00:04:09,792 --> 00:04:13,379
[whistlin' merrily]

118
00:04:13,504 --> 00:04:15,923
Fuck off, Whistlin' Willie,
we're not in the mood.

119
00:04:16,048 --> 00:04:18,884
If you want your pizza
you gotta whistle!

120
00:04:19,009 --> 00:04:20,302
[whistlin' merrily]

121
00:04:21,971 --> 00:04:23,222

00:04:29,520 --> 00:04:31,939
There ya' go!

124
00:04:32,064 --> 00:04:34,817
God, I wish we had
a <i>Pizza Hut</i> in South Park.

125
00:04:34,942 --> 00:04:36,402
Hey look, Craig
just walked in.

126
00:04:36,527 --> 00:04:40,614
[cheers & applause]

127
00:04:41,907 --> 00:04:43,909
Jesus all that for
a stupid video show.

128
00:04:44,034 --> 00:04:47,329
Oh hey guys, heard about
your news show being canceled.

129
00:04:47,454 --> 00:04:49,081
Go play with
yourself, Craig.

130
00:04:49,206 --> 00:04:51,208
Yeah, well, I got an overall
deal with the school.

131
00:04:51,333 --> 00:04:52,960
They're paying me
six dollars a week

132
00:04:53,085 --> 00:04:54,086
to come up
with new shows.

133
00:04:54,211 --> 00:04:56,171
Your idea took about
this much thought, Craig.

134
00:04:57,131 --> 00:04:59,091
This much more
than you had.

135
00:05:00,134 --> 00:05:01,218
Hey a round of root beers
for everyone, on me!

"Wide Angle
Close-up Animals"!

Woo-hoo! Yayyy!
- Let's see!

Put it up on
the monitors!

come on guys!

We've worked
too hard

00:05:52,311 --> 00:05:53,270
to just roll over
for Craig and his

161
00:05:53,395 --> 00:05:54,730
stupid overall deal.

162
00:05:54,855 --> 00:05:56,148
Instead of sitting here
feeling sorry for ourselves,

163
00:05:56,273 --> 00:05:57,274
we just need
to figure out

164
00:05:57,399 --> 00:05:58,650
how to make
our show better!

165
00:05:58,776 --> 00:05:59,777
Yeah... maybe if we
can get higher ratings

166
00:05:59,902 --> 00:06:00,861
by the end
of the week

167
00:06:00,986 --> 00:06:02,321
they'll let us
stay on the air!

168
00:06:02,446 --> 00:06:03,614
Well what are we
waitin' for?

169
00:06:03,739 --> 00:06:05,407
Come on, guys!

170
00:06:09,078 --> 00:06:11,038
Alright, we all need to
come up with ideas

171
00:06:11,163 --> 00:06:12,581
for our show.

172
00:06:12,706 --> 00:06:14,583
How about
we revamp the name...

173
00:06:14,708 --> 00:06:15,876
"Super School News"
sounds dry.

174
00:06:16,001 --> 00:06:17,419
It should
be Sexy News.

175
00:06:17,544 --> 00:06:18,629
Action News!

176
00:06:18,754 --> 00:06:19,755
Yeah, Sexy Action,
that's good.

177
00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:21,548
Maybe the problem is
we don't have

178
00:06:21,673 --> 00:06:22,966
very good stories
to report on.

179
00:06:23,092 --> 00:06:24,510
Right... we should
make up stories

180
00:06:24,635 --> 00:06:25,844
because they'll be
far more interesting.

181
00:06:25,969 --> 00:06:27,679
Hey yeah!

182
00:06:27,805 --> 00:06:29,139
I could <i>say</i> I saw celebrities
even though I didn't

183
00:06:29,264 --> 00:06:31,433
and then lie about
what I saw them doing!

184
00:06:31,558 --> 00:06:33,102
Nice, Butters,
write that down!

185
00:06:33,227 --> 00:06:37,481
"Lie... about...celebrities".

186
00:06:37,606 --> 00:06:38,607
We have to appeal
to all the students.

187
00:06:38,732 --> 00:06:40,818
So we need hot girls
for the sixth graders--

188
00:06:40,943 --> 00:06:41,568
--and panda bears
for the preschoolers.

189
00:06:41,693 --> 00:06:42,486
Good.

190
00:06:42,611 --> 00:06:43,695
Maybe we need
to make students think

191
00:06:43,821 --> 00:06:44,446
they <i>have</i> to watch
our news show

192
00:06:44,571 --> 00:06:45,656
or they'll die!

193
00:06:45,948 --> 00:06:47,157
Yeah, we should make up
a bunch of reports

194
00:06:47,282 --> 00:06:48,700
about how dangerous
it is to be alive!

195
00:06:48,826 --> 00:06:49,868
Oh boy!

196
00:06:49,993 --> 00:06:53,122
Fellas, are you sure
all of this is e-e-ethical?

197
00:06:53,247 --> 00:06:54,123
We're in
fourth grade, Jimmy.

198
00:06:54,248 --> 00:06:55,582
We don't even know
what ethical means!

199
00:06:55,707 --> 00:06:56,917
Alright, Sexy Action
School News team

200
00:06:57,042 --> 00:06:58,168
it's time
to go to work!

201
00:06:58,293 --> 00:06:59,336
Get out there
and get some stories!

202
00:06:59,461 --> 00:07:02,256
Sexy Action
School News team, ho!

203
00:07:05,467 --> 00:07:07,386
Uh, Token, can I have
a quick word with you?

204
00:07:08,512 --> 00:07:10,305
Look, Token... I know
the guys are having trouble

205
00:07:10,431 --> 00:07:11,598
bringing this
up with you, but...

206
00:07:11,723 --> 00:07:14,268
Well the thing is, Token,

207
00:07:14,393 --> 00:07:16,311
we really need to revamp
your whole TV persona.

208
00:07:17,062 --> 00:07:18,147
Huh?

209
00:07:18,272 --> 00:07:19,148
You see, Token,
people really enjoy

210
00:07:19,273 --> 00:07:21,984
<i>seeing</i> African Americans
on the news.

211
00:07:22,860 --> 00:07:25,279
<i>Seeing</i> African Americans
on the news

212
00:07:25,404 --> 00:07:26,196
not hearing them.

213
00:07:26,321 --> 00:07:28,157
That's why, all
African American news people

214
00:07:28,282 --> 00:07:30,993
learn to talk more...
how should I say...

215
00:07:31,118 --> 00:07:34,079
white.

216
00:07:34,204 --> 00:07:35,914
Token, all the great
African American news people

217
00:07:36,039 --> 00:07:37,833
have learned to hide their
'ebonic tribespeak'

218
00:07:37,958 --> 00:07:39,918
with a more pure
caucasian dialect.

219
00:07:40,043 --> 00:07:41,378
There is no
shame in it

220
00:07:41,503 --> 00:07:43,464
and I really think
it will help our ratings.

221
00:07:44,798 --> 00:07:48,260
This is South Park Elementary
closed circuit television.

222
00:07:48,385 --> 00:07:49,636
And now...

223
00:07:50,304 --> 00:07:55,309
Eyewitness
Sexy Action School News!

224
00:07:55,434 --> 00:07:57,311
Is South Park Elementary
about to explode

225
00:07:57,436 --> 00:07:58,562
from a methane gas leak?

226
00:07:58,687 --> 00:08:00,314
More on that later,
but first,

227
00:08:00,439 --> 00:08:01,940
Stan Marsh has a look
at some new outfits

228
00:08:02,065 --> 00:08:03,192
for the <i>Raisins</i> girls!

229
00:08:03,567 --> 00:08:04,443
[all cheering]

230
00:08:04,985 --> 00:08:07,321
Eric, the outfits are
even skimpier than before

231
00:08:07,446 --> 00:08:08,739
leaving very little
to the imagination.

232
00:08:08,864 --> 00:08:10,324
No doubt that if
I were a little older

233
00:08:10,449 --> 00:08:12,117
I <i>would</i> be aroused.

234
00:08:12,242 --> 00:08:13,076
[all cheering]

235
00:08:13,202 --> 00:08:14,286
And now for
a look at the weather.

236
00:08:14,411 --> 00:08:15,579
Here is Token Black.

237
00:08:15,704 --> 00:08:16,872
And Token, I hope
there are no tornadoes

238
00:08:16,997 --> 00:08:18,207
headed our way.

239
00:08:18,332 --> 00:08:20,792
No, tornadoes, Eric
but interestingly enough

240
00:08:20,918 --> 00:08:22,419
there is a
low pressure storm

241
00:08:22,544 --> 00:08:24,087
moving in over
the Park County valley

242
00:08:24,213 --> 00:08:27,090
should bring us
some chilly days ahead.

243
00:08:28,634 --> 00:08:29,885
The Park County
school board

244
00:08:30,010 --> 00:08:31,220
has approved
a bigger budget

245
00:08:31,345 --> 00:08:32,304
for the computer lab in--

246
00:08:32,429 --> 00:08:33,805
Ooh hang on, Jimmy!

247
00:08:33,931 --> 00:08:34,890
Looks like
Kyle has the dish

248
00:08:35,015 --> 00:08:36,183
on some students
bathroom habits! Kyle.

249
00:08:36,475 --> 00:08:37,601
Eric, sources
are speculating

250
00:08:37,726 --> 00:08:39,311
that third grade student
Pete Bellman

251
00:08:39,436 --> 00:08:40,979
pees sitting down
like a girl.

252
00:08:41,104 --> 00:08:42,314
We've also
got confirmation

253
00:08:42,439 --> 00:08:43,398
that Sally Turner
stuffs her bra

254
00:08:43,524 --> 00:08:45,817
and Clyde Donovan
has only one testicle.

255
00:08:45,943 --> 00:08:48,612
Ha-ha-ha-haa
one testicle!

256
00:08:48,737 --> 00:08:51,490
Ha-ha-ha
what an asshole!

257
00:08:52,533 --> 00:08:56,828
Oh-oh, looks like it's
Panda Bear Madness Minute!

258
00:08:58,872 --> 00:09:01,041
Oh yeah,
Panda Bear Madness!

259
00:09:01,166 --> 00:09:02,125
And now...
let's get a look at

260
00:09:02,251 --> 00:09:04,336
Celebrity Dish gossip
with Butters!

261
00:09:05,462 --> 00:09:09,383
This isn't the news,
this is a t-t-t-travesty.

262
00:09:13,178 --> 00:09:14,596
Alright, so after
my report on

263
00:09:14,721 --> 00:09:17,140
the unsanitary conditions
of the school cafeteria

264
00:09:17,266 --> 00:09:18,642
we'll go to Kyle for
the story on Brian Teebs

265
00:09:18,767 --> 00:09:20,435
trying to make out
with Susan Farkle.

266
00:09:20,561 --> 00:09:21,270
Then let's do
Token's report

267
00:09:21,395 --> 00:09:22,437
on how global warming
is going to kill

268
00:09:22,563 --> 00:09:23,522
everyone in
the fifth grade.

269
00:09:23,647 --> 00:09:25,899
That is a
terrific idea, Stan.

270
00:09:26,024 --> 00:09:27,317
A-OK!

271
00:09:27,442 --> 00:09:30,112
Fellas, fellas, I've
got fantastic news.

272
00:09:30,237 --> 00:09:32,030
The vice president,
Dick Cheney,

273
00:09:32,155 --> 00:09:33,282
was in
Denver yesterday,

274
00:09:33,407 --> 00:09:35,867
and I got an interview
with him for our news show!

275
00:09:36,994 --> 00:09:39,663
Umm, an interview
with the vice president...

276
00:09:39,788 --> 00:09:41,623
Frankly, Jimmy I don't
know how we're going to

277
00:09:41,748 --> 00:09:43,083
fit that in between
cheerleader pie eating

278
00:09:43,208 --> 00:09:44,751
and Who's Got
Skid Marks Monday.

279
00:09:44,876 --> 00:09:46,461
But this is
real news.

280
00:09:46,587 --> 00:09:47,963
It's boring news, Jimmy.

281
00:09:48,088 --> 00:09:49,965
How do you know,
you haven't seen it yet!

282
00:09:50,090 --> 00:09:51,383
Alright,
tell me about it.

283
00:09:51,508 --> 00:09:53,468
In the interview,
Mr. Cheney tells me all about how--

284
00:09:53,594 --> 00:09:55,470
[big yawn]

285
00:09:55,596 --> 00:09:59,474
Oh... oh God,
I just got so sleepy.

286
00:09:59,600 --> 00:10:01,310
I'm sorry, what were
you talking about?

287
00:10:01,435 --> 00:10:03,478
Look, f-f-fellas
I've got a real problem

288
00:10:03,604 --> 00:10:05,439
with the direction
our news show is going.

289
00:10:05,564 --> 00:10:06,940
We're dumbing down
the school.

290
00:10:07,107 --> 00:10:08,483
No, Jimmy, the school
is already dumb

291
00:10:08,609 --> 00:10:09,484
we're just giving them
what they want.

292
00:10:09,610 --> 00:10:11,570
We're making the news
more appealing to students.

293
00:10:11,695 --> 00:10:13,322
This isn't the news!

294
00:10:13,447 --> 00:10:15,490
This is a b-b-bastardized
quest for ratings.

295
00:10:15,616 --> 00:10:17,826
Dammit, we have a
journalistic responsibility

296
00:10:17,951 --> 00:10:20,495
to bring students
the f-facts.

297
00:10:20,621 --> 00:10:22,122
Don't you see
what we've done?

298
00:10:22,247 --> 00:10:24,875
In our effort to compete with
Craig's small-minded show

299
00:10:25,000 --> 00:10:26,752
we've make a mockery
of news reporting.

300
00:10:26,877 --> 00:10:28,503
I remember when we all
made an oath to each other

301
00:10:28,629 --> 00:10:30,631
way back when we started
playing news reporters

302
00:10:30,756 --> 00:10:33,216
that we would never let anything
jeopardize our integrity.

303
00:10:33,342 --> 00:10:35,510
Well our integrity
is jeopardized...

304
00:10:35,636 --> 00:10:38,138
And if we can't
report news the honest way...

305
00:10:38,263 --> 00:10:40,641
What good is
news reporting?

306
00:10:41,767 --> 00:10:45,062
[yawning & stretching]

307
00:10:47,856 --> 00:10:49,441
Boys, first of all
I want to tell you

308
00:10:49,566 --> 00:10:53,570
how impressed I am with your
ability to get more ratings.

309
00:10:53,695 --> 00:10:56,448
Your show beat "Close-up Animals
With a Wide Angle Lens"

310
00:10:56,573 --> 00:10:58,533
by three viewers!

311
00:10:58,659 --> 00:11:02,329
Alright!!
- Wohoo!

312
00:11:02,454 --> 00:11:03,955
I knew we
could do it!

313
00:11:04,081 --> 00:11:05,040
We beat
"Close-up Animals"!

314
00:11:05,165 --> 00:11:05,957
Oh man, it's
so great!

315
00:11:06,083 --> 00:11:07,793
We-we worked so hard
to be on the top-

316
00:11:07,918 --> 00:11:09,252
oh come here, you!

317
00:11:09,378 --> 00:11:11,254
Yes, but unfortunately

318
00:11:11,380 --> 00:11:12,964
you got crushed
in the ratings

319
00:11:13,090 --> 00:11:14,883
by Craig's new show.

320
00:11:17,302 --> 00:11:18,428
Craig's new show?

321
00:11:18,553 --> 00:11:19,971
All the students
love it.

322
00:11:20,097 --> 00:11:22,307
It's an
incredible idea called

323
00:11:22,432 --> 00:11:24,851
"Close-up Animals
With a Wide Angle Lens

324
00:11:24,976 --> 00:11:26,603
Wearing Hats".

325
00:11:26,728 --> 00:11:28,355
Take a look.

326
00:11:38,949 --> 00:11:41,910
That Craig is a
freakin' genius, I tell you.

327
00:11:42,035 --> 00:11:44,788
He's like...
an idea machine.

328
00:11:44,913 --> 00:11:48,458
Does this mean we're
still gonna get canceled?

329
00:11:48,583 --> 00:11:50,836
I'm afraid its worse
than that boys.

330
00:11:50,961 --> 00:11:52,963
I'm going to have to
give you all "F"s

331
00:11:53,088 --> 00:11:54,798
in extra curricular A/V class.

332
00:11:54,923 --> 00:11:58,760
You have to learn now
how important ratings are.

333
00:11:58,885 --> 00:12:01,138
But... we
gave it our best.

334
00:12:01,263 --> 00:12:06,226
Yes, ♪ and I guess your best
wasn't good enough ♪

335
00:12:07,686 --> 00:12:08,979
I don't believe it.

336
00:12:09,104 --> 00:12:10,230
I can't lose this extra
curricular credit!

337
00:12:10,355 --> 00:12:11,732
I need it to
pass fourth grade.

338
00:12:11,857 --> 00:12:13,775
Stupid news hair.

339
00:12:15,402 --> 00:12:18,196
F-fellas, don't you see,
this proves my point.

340
00:12:18,321 --> 00:12:21,491
We have to elevate
our ideas up, not down.

341
00:12:21,616 --> 00:12:23,618
Yeah, Jimmys right. I know we
can come up with

342
00:12:23,744 --> 00:12:24,911
way better ideas
than Craig.

343
00:12:25,328 --> 00:12:27,289
Yeah. To save our show,
all we need to do...

344
00:12:27,414 --> 00:12:28,915
is come up with
the best idea

345
00:12:29,040 --> 00:12:30,959
for an episode <i>ever.</i>

346
00:12:39,760 --> 00:12:41,219
What if we do
a show where we...

347
00:12:41,344 --> 00:12:42,846
Ah... no...

348
00:12:42,971 --> 00:12:47,017
How about we
have us, um... hmmm...

349
00:12:47,142 --> 00:12:49,978
Come on doesn't anybody
have any show ideas?

350
00:12:50,103 --> 00:12:51,188
How about we
get panda bears

351
00:12:51,313 --> 00:12:53,023
and have them dance
around with us!

352
00:12:53,148 --> 00:12:55,484
We did that.

353
00:12:57,694 --> 00:12:59,571
Wow, coming up
with ideas is hard.

354
00:12:59,696 --> 00:13:01,615
Look, you guys, if Craig
can do it, we can do it.

355
00:13:01,740 --> 00:13:02,407
Come on!

356
00:13:07,579 --> 00:13:12,083
How about we do
a show with us... uh...

357
00:13:12,209 --> 00:13:15,504
The uh... what if...

358
00:13:15,629 --> 00:13:18,089
Wait, I've got it...
crab people.

359
00:13:18,215 --> 00:13:19,341
Crab people?

360
00:13:19,466 --> 00:13:20,550
They're like
half crab, half people

361
00:13:20,675 --> 00:13:22,552
and they live
below the ground.

362
00:13:22,677 --> 00:13:25,096
Dude, I think we can
do a little better

363
00:13:25,222 --> 00:13:26,681
than crab people.

364
00:13:26,807 --> 00:13:28,600
I know, we should
read the funnies!

365
00:13:28,725 --> 00:13:31,186
I always get good ideas
from the funnies!

366
00:13:31,478 --> 00:13:33,230
Butters, only gay little
dweebs read the funnies.

367
00:13:33,772 --> 00:13:35,440
Yeah, I read 'em
all the time!

368
00:13:35,565 --> 00:13:36,858
Here's one!

369
00:13:36,983 --> 00:13:38,819
The... snail
tripped over a hurdle

370
00:13:38,944 --> 00:13:40,403
and the other
snail says,

371
00:13:40,529 --> 00:13:42,697
"well, that's gonna add
another hour to his time!"

372
00:13:42,823 --> 00:13:43,907
Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!

373
00:13:44,032 --> 00:13:45,617
You guys?

374
00:13:46,660 --> 00:13:49,037
How about we do a show
where we kill Butters?

375
00:13:51,706 --> 00:13:52,958
Ha ha...

376
00:13:55,168 --> 00:13:56,711
So Dagwood says,

377
00:13:56,837 --> 00:14:01,341
"good... goo..good thing we're playing
the back nine at your house".

378
00:14:01,466 --> 00:14:02,092
Ha ha ha ha!

379
00:14:03,218 --> 00:14:05,512
We're hopelessly stuck,
completely out of ideas.

380
00:14:05,804 --> 00:14:06,721
We have
crab people.

381
00:14:06,847 --> 00:14:07,764
Just sayin'...

382
00:14:07,889 --> 00:14:09,266
Wait -- you know
what we should do?

383
00:14:09,391 --> 00:14:11,685
We should all take
a bunch of cough medicine.

384
00:14:11,810 --> 00:14:12,686
Cough medicine?

385
00:14:12,811 --> 00:14:13,687
That's what
the sixth graders do

386
00:14:13,812 --> 00:14:14,729
behind the school
at recess.

387
00:14:14,855 --> 00:14:16,356
They take way
too much cough medicine

388
00:14:16,481 --> 00:14:18,316
cuz they say it makes them
see things in their heads.

389
00:14:21,570 --> 00:14:25,407
Gee wiz, there
sure is a lot of em...

390
00:14:25,532 --> 00:14:27,492
How do we know
which one to use?

391
00:14:29,619 --> 00:14:30,579
How about this
one Colminex.

392
00:14:30,704 --> 00:14:32,831
"Warning, taking more
than recommended amount

393
00:14:32,956 --> 00:14:34,583
can cause severe
side effects."

394
00:14:34,708 --> 00:14:35,750
That sounds perfect!

395
00:14:35,876 --> 00:14:37,335
B-bingo.

396
00:14:38,461 --> 00:14:39,713
Can I help
you boys?

397
00:14:39,838 --> 00:14:42,424
Yeah, we need to come up
with some ideas and inspiration

398
00:14:42,549 --> 00:14:44,009
so we were gonna drink
a bunch of cough medicine.

399
00:14:44,134 --> 00:14:44,885
Whoa, boys!

400
00:14:45,010 --> 00:14:47,512
That's not what you need
to come up with ideas!

401
00:14:47,637 --> 00:14:48,722
It's not?

402
00:14:48,847 --> 00:14:51,683
No, what you want
is the Colminex PM.

403
00:14:51,808 --> 00:14:53,727
It has the
dextrimatphan in it

404
00:14:53,852 --> 00:14:55,437
that causes hallucinations
in large doses.

405
00:14:55,562 --> 00:14:56,688
Oh okay.

406
00:14:56,813 --> 00:14:57,939
Now, if it's
more of a lucid,

407
00:14:58,064 --> 00:14:59,316
speedy kind of high
you're looking for,

408
00:14:59,441 --> 00:15:01,526
I do also carry the
Daytap Cold and Flu.

409
00:15:01,651 --> 00:15:03,278
Then there's the
maximum strength

410
00:15:03,403 --> 00:15:04,738
Codatussin Cough 'n Cold.

411
00:15:04,863 --> 00:15:07,866
But of course, that's only if
you really want to trip balls.

412
00:15:08,575 --> 00:15:10,493
What do you
think, fellas?

413
00:15:10,619 --> 00:15:11,870
I guess we'll just
take all of them.

414
00:15:11,995 --> 00:15:12,787
That's the spirit...

415
00:15:12,913 --> 00:15:14,873
Alright boys, I'll just need
your parents permission.

416
00:15:17,125 --> 00:15:18,919
Kidding, I'm just
pullin' your legs.

417
00:15:19,044 --> 00:15:20,253
Come on over
to the register!

418
00:15:22,255 --> 00:15:23,006
Oh, looks like
somebody else

419
00:15:23,131 --> 00:15:24,716
is doing a little
partying tonight!

420
00:15:24,841 --> 00:15:26,509
Oh, Jesus Christ!

421
00:15:27,010 --> 00:15:27,928
We aren't
having a party.

422
00:15:28,345 --> 00:15:29,095
Oh yeah sure!

423
00:15:29,220 --> 00:15:30,972
You're just buying that
for your bad coughs, right?

424
00:15:31,097 --> 00:15:34,851
Us too!
[fake coughing]

425
00:15:35,977 --> 00:15:36,728
Ooh, Jesus!

426
00:15:43,777 --> 00:15:46,237
Alright, now everybody
take a tablet and a pencil

427
00:15:46,363 --> 00:15:47,322
and when all the ideas
start coming

428
00:15:47,447 --> 00:15:48,740
just write 'em down.

429
00:15:48,865 --> 00:15:50,325
We might not remember
everything otherwise.

430
00:15:50,784 --> 00:15:53,495
Oh boy, I can't wait
to be creative and smart!

431
00:15:54,955 --> 00:15:57,332
Ooh, it's all
thick and gooey...

432
00:15:59,334 --> 00:16:01,336
Huh... I don't
have any ideas yet.

433
00:16:04,965 --> 00:16:05,882
Stan?

434
00:16:06,800 --> 00:16:08,385
Dude, Stan,
you alright?

435
00:16:08,677 --> 00:16:10,679
I think maybe
he's feelin' it.

436
00:16:10,971 --> 00:16:12,764
Stan, are you
getting good ideas?

437
00:16:15,016 --> 00:16:17,811
Woah... I'm feelin kinda
bowling ballish, fellas.

438
00:16:28,238 --> 00:16:28,947
Woof-woof!

439
00:16:29,072 --> 00:16:30,740
Woof-woof!

440
00:16:30,865 --> 00:16:32,409
[distorted]
Stan... Stan come on.

441
00:16:32,534 --> 00:16:34,494
We're gonna
go find a frog.

442
00:16:39,040 --> 00:16:40,625
[wrong number beep]
We're sorry...

443
00:16:48,425 --> 00:16:50,760
Oh dude, I just had
the best idea!

444
00:16:50,885 --> 00:16:51,845
Me too!

445
00:16:59,561 --> 00:17:02,564
Hey, let's run naked
through the street!

446
00:17:10,905 --> 00:17:12,866
Dude, this TV show
is awesome...

447
00:17:13,867 --> 00:17:16,411
It's... the greatest
show of all time...

448
00:17:16,536 --> 00:17:18,204
I could watch
this for days...

449
00:17:28,882 --> 00:17:30,008
[all]
Cute...

450
00:17:30,967 --> 00:17:32,510
Super cute...

451
00:17:40,727 --> 00:17:44,230
You guys...
you guys wake up!

452
00:17:44,355 --> 00:17:45,356
Ergh... agh!

453
00:17:45,482 --> 00:17:47,817
Butters get away
from me!

454
00:17:47,942 --> 00:17:49,444
Oh Jesus, where
are my clothes?

455
00:17:49,569 --> 00:17:50,487
We took a bunch
of cough medicine

456
00:17:50,612 --> 00:17:52,322
to come up with
ideas for our show.

457
00:17:52,447 --> 00:17:53,823
I didn't come up
with anything!

458
00:17:53,948 --> 00:17:55,867
I did, I wrote
something down...

459
00:17:55,992 --> 00:17:59,245
Here it is... uh...
squiggly line, circle.

460
00:17:59,370 --> 00:18:00,538
I wrote down...

461
00:18:00,663 --> 00:18:03,124
All the lyrics to
the "Happy Days" theme song.

462
00:18:03,249 --> 00:18:04,959
You guys... we watched
Craig's show all night long.

463
00:18:05,085 --> 00:18:07,045
Yeah, it was great.

464
00:18:07,170 --> 00:18:08,338
But don't you see?

465
00:18:08,463 --> 00:18:09,964
We didn't think
it was great before!

466
00:18:10,090 --> 00:18:11,591
I think
I understand now.

467
00:18:11,716 --> 00:18:14,719
I think I know why Craig's show
gets such great ratings!

468
00:18:14,844 --> 00:18:17,472
Half the school
is high on cough medicine!

469
00:18:17,597 --> 00:18:19,265
Jesus, you
may be right.

470
00:18:19,390 --> 00:18:20,934
Fellas, this
is our chance!

471
00:18:21,059 --> 00:18:22,435
Everyone get your hair looking
as fantastic as possible!

472
00:18:22,560 --> 00:18:23,895
It's time for us to do

473
00:18:24,020 --> 00:18:25,271
the most incredible
investigative news report

474
00:18:25,396 --> 00:18:27,190
of our journalistic lives!

475
00:18:27,607 --> 00:18:29,025
This is
closed circuit television

476
00:18:29,150 --> 00:18:31,194
for South Park
Elementary School.

477
00:18:31,319 --> 00:18:33,780
And now...
A Sexy Action News team

478
00:18:33,905 --> 00:18:35,240
Special Report!

479
00:18:35,365 --> 00:18:39,160
Cough medicine
abuse in school.

480
00:18:39,285 --> 00:18:41,704
<i>With the Sexy Action
School News team.</i>

481

you can't afford to miss.</i>

482
00:18:44,374 --> 00:18:45,708
[girl screaming]

483
00:18:46,126 --> 00:18:48,795
And now here is
Rick Cartman.

484
00:18:50,130 --> 00:18:51,631
They call it cough syrup,
cough medicine,

485
00:18:51,756 --> 00:18:53,424
cold and flu remedy.

486
00:18:53,550 --> 00:18:55,343
But behind closed doors
at South Park Elementary

487
00:18:55,468 --> 00:18:56,427
it also has
a street name:

488
00:18:56,553 --> 00:18:59,848
coogie, wombat juice,
tigger yum yum.

489
00:18:59,973 --> 00:19:01,683
Hello, I'm Rick Cartman.

490
00:19:01,808 --> 00:19:03,101
Today the Sexy Action School
news team

491
00:19:03,226 --> 00:19:05,019
takes you inside
the dark and lonely world

492
00:19:05,145 --> 00:19:07,230
of cough medicine abuse.

493
00:19:07,355 --> 00:19:08,606
They're doing it
in the hallways.

494
00:19:08,731 --> 00:19:09,607
Agh!

495
00:19:09,732 --> 00:19:11,234
Behind the school.

496
00:19:11,359 --> 00:19:13,319
Hey, get outta here
you fucking dork.

497
00:19:13,444 --> 00:19:14,988
Even, in the
girl's bathroom.

498
00:19:15,113 --> 00:19:19,159
Is somebody in there?
I'll tell on you!

499
00:19:19,284 --> 00:19:20,994
We showed the shocking footage
to the principal--

500
00:19:21,119 --> 00:19:22,579
Oh my goodness...

501
00:19:22,704 --> 00:19:24,289
Principal Victoria,
can you explain

502
00:19:24,414 --> 00:19:27,208
how your administration
failed to see this p-pr-

503
00:19:27,333 --> 00:19:28,251
problem?

504
00:19:28,376 --> 00:19:29,836
Well, I... we...

505
00:19:29,961 --> 00:19:31,880
So where are students getting
all this cough medicine?

506
00:19:32,005 --> 00:19:32,922
This surveillance footage

507
00:19:33,047 --> 00:19:34,215
shows a group of
troubled kids

508
00:19:34,340 --> 00:19:35,300
getting all
the smack they want

509
00:19:35,425 --> 00:19:36,634
from a pharmacist!

510
00:19:36,759 --> 00:19:39,012
Sexy Action School News
reported the pharmacist

511
00:19:39,137 --> 00:19:40,013
to the South Park police

512
00:19:40,138 --> 00:19:41,556
and he was
immediately arrested.

513
00:19:41,681 --> 00:19:43,308
The cough medicine
companies claim

514
00:19:43,433 --> 00:19:44,559
they don't intend
for their product

515
00:19:44,684 --> 00:19:46,644
to be used by kids
to get high.

516
00:19:46,769 --> 00:19:49,063
But one look at
the packaging tells otherwise-

517
00:19:49,189 --> 00:19:52,025
"Theradryl DM for kids"

518
00:19:52,150 --> 00:19:54,819
"Dexacough
Children's Formula".

519
00:19:54,944 --> 00:19:56,571
And now for a quick
celebrity check

520
00:19:56,696 --> 00:19:57,906
here's Butters Stotch.

521
00:19:58,031 --> 00:19:59,365
Still no
celebrities, Eric.

522
00:19:59,490 --> 00:20:01,826
I'll keep
my eyes open.

523
00:20:01,951 --> 00:20:03,411
The cough medicine problem
used to also run rampant

524
00:20:03,536 --> 00:20:05,538
in neighboring
Middle Park Elementary.

525
00:20:05,663 --> 00:20:06,915
But they took action.

526
00:20:07,040 --> 00:20:08,041
Ridded their entire town
of cough medicine.

527
00:20:08,166 --> 00:20:11,127
And what we see now,
is a happier school

528
00:20:11,252 --> 00:20:13,213
one hundred percent
cough medicine free.

529
00:20:13,796 --> 00:20:15,965
[all hacking & coughing]

530
00:20:19,260 --> 00:20:21,554
Boys, I want to
congratulate you

531
00:20:21,679 --> 00:20:24,390
on what is perhaps the finest
piece of student television

532
00:20:24,515 --> 00:20:26,351
I have ever seen.

533
00:20:26,476 --> 00:20:27,727
Not only did you get

534
00:20:27,852 --> 00:20:30,355
all the students and
myself off of cough medicine

535
00:20:30,480 --> 00:20:32,565
but you got a twenty two
in the ratings!

536
00:20:32,690 --> 00:20:34,234
Twenty two people?

537
00:20:34,359 --> 00:20:35,693
Alright!

538
00:20:35,818 --> 00:20:37,362
You wanted to
see me, Mr. Maryl?

539
00:20:37,487 --> 00:20:38,988
Oh, yes, Craig.

540
00:20:39,113 --> 00:20:40,949
It appears that
the ratings for your show

541
00:20:41,074 --> 00:20:42,659
are down
significantly.

542
00:20:42,784 --> 00:20:44,035
Gee, what a
coincidence.

543
00:20:44,160 --> 00:20:46,246
I wonder w-w-why.

544
00:20:46,371 --> 00:20:48,790
You need to know how
important ratings are, Craig.

545
00:20:48,915 --> 00:20:50,792
So I'm going to
suspend you from school

546
00:20:50,917 --> 00:20:53,878
and request that you have your
testicles removed surgically.

547
00:20:54,379 --> 00:20:56,089
Ha ha, in your
face Craig!

548
00:20:56,214 --> 00:20:58,925
You boys are approved
for twenty seven new shows!

549
00:20:59,050 --> 00:21:01,469
I want you to come up
with an even better idea

550
00:21:01,594 --> 00:21:02,720
than the
cough medicine story.

551
00:21:02,845 --> 00:21:03,805
Get to it!

552
00:21:08,351 --> 00:21:12,188
Nobody... has any ideas?

553
00:21:13,564 --> 00:21:14,148
This sucks.

554
00:21:14,274 --> 00:21:15,233
I don't wanna keep having to
come up with ideas

555
00:21:15,358 --> 00:21:17,443
for shows all the time,
it hurts my head.

556
00:21:19,904 --> 00:21:22,156
Dude... bail?

557
00:21:22,282 --> 00:21:24,909
I think bail.

558
00:21:25,034 --> 00:21:25,952
Bail.

559
00:21:26,077 --> 00:21:27,954
Yep, b-b-bail.
