Mistaking Cartman for the child, government authorities send him to Ethiopia where he runs into Sally Struthers. ===Description=== After seeing a commercial in which Sally Struthers begs for money to help starving African children, the boys decide to pitch in -- mostly because they get a free digital sports watch for their trouble. But due to a clerical error they receive not a watch but an actual Ethiopian child. Cartman names him Starvin' Marvin. They bring him to school, to the delight of the kids and horror of the teachers. Mr. Garrison and Principal Victoria contact the Red Cross to have him taken home. The boys are pissed off except for Cartman, who isn't too troubled about sending their "friend" back to poverty. Kyle warns Cartman he might also become poor and hungry someday if he doesn't watch what he says. Later that evening government agents show up at Cartman's house and, mistaking him for the African child, bundle him off to Ethiopia. The agents give Marvin a sports watch as they depart. Meanwhile, a pack of evil mutant turkeys developed by Dr. Mephesto are on the loose. Chef tells a crowd gathered in the town square that they have to destroy them before they conquer the world. A bloody battle ensues, with the humans finally annihilating the turkeys. The birds peck out Kenny's eyes which kills him. Cartman is at the end of his rope in Africa. Suddenly he spots a small building that contains mountains of food, plus a big-screen TV and elegant furniture. There occupies a grotesquely obese Sally Struthers. FUrious, Cartman tells the Ethiopians that Struthers is hoarding food. Marvin returns to Ethiopia and Cartman comes back to South Park. The plane that brings Marvin home is also stuffed with the dead but completely edible turkeys. The villagers hoist Marvin on their shoulders and march him through town, right past Sally Struthers who is bound to a pole. ===What I Learned Today=== "It's really easy not to think of images on TV as real people, but they are.
