[edit] Plot
In this episode, the South Park children build a church to live in sinlessness, and do not go to school, avoid home as much as possible, and listen earnestly to Cartman, who acts like a televangelist-esque preacher. Meanwhile, Kenny calls from Ensenada, Mexico (about 60 miles (95 km) south of Tijuana on the Baja California peninsula) where the bus he was run over by dragged him and which he thinks is hell, and tells about the "Underworld" for Cartman's sermons: that everyone in Hell speaks Spanish, and there are a lot of trinket stores.
Meanwhile, in the real Hell, Satan sleeps with Saddam. He then tells Chris about what happened. Chris forgives Satan, which actually upsets Satan more. Satan screams at Chris saying that he wishes that he would at least be angry at what happened. Then, Chris and Saddam keep getting into fights, which lead to the two murdering each other; nevertheless, they keep reappearing in Hell to kill each other again, and Satan wonders if he should go with Saddam, whom he finds sexually attractive, or Chris, who is kinder. A little girl in Hell suggests that he ask God for help.
Satan goes and sees God in Heaven (which is occupied solely by Mormons); God calls Satan a pussy himself for complaining about such a problem, saying to him, "You got kicked out of here for being a headstrong rebel. And now you're a whiny little bitch." God further tells Satan that he should dump them both and try to learn to appreciate himself before he tries to find a relationship.
Back in South Park, Cartman reveals to Stan and Kyle that he, in fact, only opened the church to con kids out of money, and not out of religious fervor (according to him, people can easily be forgiven by God). Sister Anne then manages to disband Cartman's church by having Jesus come and close it. As punishment for his sins, Cartman is sent somewhere worse than Hell, Mexico, and happens to meet Kenny at the bus stop. A similar event happens in Hell, when even after Satan explains his intent to be single, Saddam continues to harass him, the Devil reveals that he has "Asked an old friend for a favor", and Saddam is forced to go live up in Heaven with the Mormons. This, to him, is Hell.
[edit] Trivia
- This is the third episode, before Season 7, in which Kenny does not die.
- The soda machine outside the motel sells "Apocalypse Cola"
- The Wacky Water Weasel sprinkler Cartman used to baptize Kyle, Timmy, and Ike in "Do the Handicapped Go To Hell?" and the Antonio Banderas sex doll from "Korn's Groovy Pirate Mystery" appear in the hotel room in Hell when Satan wakes up next to Saddam.
[edit] Goofs
- When Cartman is rolling in the pile of one dollar bills the face of Washington on the center most horizontal bill is incorrectly looking to the left, unlike the rest.
[edit] Pop Culture References
- During the "previously on South Park" recap at the beginning of the episode, a reference is made to the Happy Days episode where Fonzie jumped the shark.
- The little girl who tells Satan to speak with God about his issues with Saddam and Chris looks similar to JonBenet Ramsey.
- The repeated line throughout this episode, "Yeah, well, where was I going to go? Detroit?" was from the 1970s cult film Kentucky Fried Movie
