Episode Chronology

Story

Description

Cartman, disillusioned by events in "Do the Handicapped Go To Hell?" becomes a preacher. Meanwhile, in Hell, Satan has a wild night of sex with his former lover, Saddam Hussein.

Kenny, who was previously struck by a bus, wasn't killed. Instead he'd dragged all the way to Ensenada, Mexico, where he phones home for help. Cartman takes the call, believing that Kenny is contacting him from beyond the grave. The next day he describes Hell to his followers as a place where "everyone speaks Spanish," and if you drink the water you "pee blood out your ass for seven hours."

A few days later, Stan and Kyle find Cartman rolling around in a vat of $1 bills collected from his followers. He reveals that his "conversion" is just his latest effort to get $10 million. It unravels when Jesus makes an unscheduled appearance at Cartman's church and tells his followers they should live good lives instead of living in fear.

At the same time, Satan goes to heaven to ask God for relationship advice. The Supreme Being calls him a "whiney little bitch" and says he should ditch both his lovers. Saddam is kicked to the curb forever when God agrees to take him into heaven -- a place populated with Mormons.. As for Cartman, Jesus dispatches him not to Hell, but someplace worse, Ensenada.

Characters

Body Count

Behind The Scenes

Where Did The Idea Come From

This is the back end of a two-parter. It was split into two episodes at the last minute when Matt and Trey realized they simply had too much material to squeeze into one show.

Pop Culture References

Shout Outs

In the midst of the "previously" recap at the start of the episode, there's a brief reference to the famous Happy Days episode in which Fonzie jumps over a shark on water skis. Only in this version he doesn't make it and the shark eats him.

Cartman's over-the-top sermon style is a rip on televangelists that populate television and thrive on monetary donations from viewers.

Bonus Factoids

Pointless Observations

Among the numerous sex toys strewn about Saddam's hotel room after his night with Satan is an Antonio Banderas blowup doll.

In addition to Powdered Donut Pancake Surprise (a dish she last made in "Cartman Gets an Anal Probe"), Cartman's mom has all the boys' favorite toys out -- Terrance and Phillip, Chinpokomon, Polly Prissypants, Petey the Panda, Mega Man, and everything else. But their love for God is stronger than the temptation of toys.

Timmy walks in this episode very, very briefly.

At the end of this episode, Saddam Hussein is banished to heaven, where he must live with the Mormons. The next time we see him (in "A Ladder to Heaven"), he's building Weapons of Mass Destruction. In heaven. With the Mormons working for him.

In the South Park universe, Mormons are the only people who get into heaven. Yet God Himself professes to be Buddhist.
