South Park s02e06 Episode Script

The Mexican Staring Frog of Southern Sri Lanka

And now back to hunting and killing with South Park's favorite hunters, Jimbo and Ned.
I'm Jimbo Kerny and this is here is Ned.
Say hi, Ned.
- Nnnhi, Ned.
- Now, isn't that great? We have a terrific show for you today.
We're gonna kill some elk and we're gonna kill mountain goats.
Now the new law passed by Colorado legislature which Ned and I call pussy law #4 states that we can no longer kill animals in defense.
In otherwords our old line of "It's coming right for us" It's coming right for us.
No longer works.
So now we only kill animals to quote "Thin out their numbers".
If we don't hunt, these animals will grow to big in their number and they won't have enough food.
So you see, we have to kill animals, or else they'll die.
Ah, so roll the tape.
Here we are up at Shafer's crossing looking for some animals.
Lookee Ned, there's some deers.
Quick Ned, thin out their numbers! Thin out their numbers.
Good work Ned, now they won't starve.
That sure was a great hunting trip, we saved those deer from extiction.
Mmmwere environmentalists.
Coming up next, we're gonna drop some nepalm on an unsuspecting family of bevers.
And also try the numbers of some endangered species.
Mr.
Garrison? What's Vietnam? What's Vietnam.
A question a child might ask, but not a childish question.
Children for the next few days we'll be learning all about Vietnam.
Chances are that somebody in your own lives was affected by this incredible war.
That's right Mr.
Garrison, the Vietnam war was sticky and icky.
Mr.
Garrison? Were you in Vietnam? Come on Ned, let's go.
Jump into the chopper.
- Who's next to take a shower? - Me, I am.
Where could I hide this big pipe? No I wasn't in Vietnam.
But sometimes I like to pretend I was.
Anyway children, I gonna assign you all a paper.
I you all to find somebody in your own life who was in Vietnam, and interview them about it.
What if we don't know anybody who was in Vietnam? Then you get an F, fail the 3rd grade and have to get a job cleaning septic tanks to support your drug habit.
Dude, my uncle Jimbo was in Vietnam.
Hey yeah, he and Ned did that stupid TV show.
And now time for Jimbo's Mysteries of the Unexplained.
One of our loyal viewers from South Park, sent us some 8 millimeter film of what he claims to be the Mexican Staring frog of Southern Sri Lanka.
Now as you all know the Mexican Staring frog of Southern SriLanka And this film proves that that frog may very well exist.
Now watch carefully, you're gonna see the Mexican Staring Frog.
There! There, did you see it? Roll that back again.
Now freeze it.
Well I'd like to know what all you skeptiks out there say now.
What do you think, Ned? - I'm scared.
- Well be sure to join us next time, we're so glad you spend your time with us, while we slaughtered our way through nature's guts.
Come again and stay a while, - we'll kill a lotmore living things and make them bleed.
- MMgood night.
And we're cut.
Great show guys.
Oh look who's here, my little nephew Stanley.
So you interested in your uncle Jimbo's big TV show, huh? No, we have to do a stupid report on Vietnam.
You and Ned are the only guys we know who were there.
- Oh yeah we sure were.
- Was it fun? Cartman! What kind of stupid ass question is that.
Of course it was fun! Well sure Vietnam was fun, but not like going to the circus fun, or fly fishin' in Montana fun.
No, Vietnam was more like shoving shards of broken glass up your ass, and then sittin' in a tub with tobasco sauce fun.
Yeppers, that's where me and Ned met.
I remember I just gotten off the Ferris Wheel.
Oh boy what a gorgious day.
Kurns get over here! The new privates are here.
I'm assigning one of them to you as a tranee.
- Ned Gurblansky reporting sir.
- Thanks Ned.
Now the bad guys have been spotted about 10 clicks North of here.
I know that you and Kurns are best suited to take em out.
- Are you up for it? - Sir yes sir! Standing without on, just me and Ned to win the war for America.
- Pass me some cocoa will you Ned? - Certainly, and would you like another muffin as well? Why the hell not? We're at war.
- Hey you know those things are bad for your throat.
- Naw, that's all lies.
I'll be fine.
- Charlies at 2 o'clock! - I see em! Drop the bomb! - The bomb's not releasing! - Oh no! - It won't budge.
- We only have one option! - What are you doing man? - We'll have to take em out Ned, at all costs.
Die you red comi bastards! Oh no! Out of ammo! - We did it Ned! We killed the entire Vietcong army! - Whoopie.
Let's get back to base camp.
We can ride the log ride before it closes.
- nd that's the way it happened boys.
- Whoa, Vietnam was sweet.
Great news guys.
Your TV show ratings have doubled! - They've gone from 6 people, to 12! - Holy smokes! We could get an emmy! You've got to do it J, your ratings are being killed by the Jimbo and Ned hunting show.
- But I don't really care about that.
- Well you better care Mr.
Smartypants.
No ratings means no show.
If you want to keep reaching out to people, you have to keep up with the times.
- Oh alright.
- Alright we're 10 seconds to air guys.
Remember, big, big , big! And 5, 4, 3 It's your hour of power, on midday mountain cable access.
Put your hands together and welcome the only man in town who always has a full in stock wine cellar, Jeeeeeeeeesus Christ! Uhhi.
Ah, ye, yeah.
Ok.
Beggining today we're taking the show in a new direction.
We've got some interesting people coming on the show this week for you, our viewers.
Today's guest is TV's Gilligan, Mr.
Bob Denver! Here is Bob Denver! - Hi, Bob Denver.
- Hi, Jesus, great to be here.
- So Bob, so you just get in town? - Yep, just got in.
- So.
.
umso what have you been up to? - N.
.
nothing.
Nothing really at all.
Nothing from nothing means nothing.
You gotta have something And after killing the entire Vietcong army, they returned to base camp.
Once there they rode the Devil's Drop Rollercoaster, and ate cotton candy.
And ultimately, Ned got the purple heart for his courageous defense of the log ride.
So was the horror of Veitnam.
The end.
- The end.
- Are there any questions? - Yes Mr.
Garrison? - Yes, uh where the fuck did you hear this ridiculous load of bullshit? From Veitnam veteran.
Well boys, it's obvious to me that you didn't do your work and that you stayed up all night making up some ridiculous lie.
- No, no we didn't! - You all receive an F minus! - F minus? Can he do that? - But, but we're not making it up! It Stanley the Vietnam war was war.
There weren't galloping steeds or singing birds or logrides.
- How do you know? You weren't even there! - Well that's it! All of you have detention for the rest of the week! Welcome to detention, mmkay.
Mr.
Garrison told me about your little joke.
So it's important for you all to know why you're in detention for you to obtain the full benfits from it.
You're here because you were inferior mmkay.
You're here because you're akward, mmkay.
Well thanks a lot for having such a cool uncle that got us all detention for a week.
Yeah dude, your uncle Jimbo sucks ass! Why would he just invent a story instead of telling us the truth? Well let's see maybe because he's an old drunk hillbilly dick! - We've gotta get him back dude! - Totally! - How? - Well he screwed us by making something up, I say we do the same thing! - What do you mean? - Did you guys ever see that one Brady Bunch where the guys Oh, yeah sweet.
Oh yeah sweet! And now back to huntin' and killing with South Park's favorite hunters, Jimbo and Ned! Welcome hunters.
Boy have we got a show for you today.
We've just received a tape from another viewer who filmed the Mexican Staring frog of Southern SriLanka right here in South Park.
Yes now we're about to roll the film but remember, if you look the Mexican Staring Frog in the eyes, you can go catatonick.
We don't know if this applies to pictures of the frog or not, but who wants to take chances? So when we roll this film, be sure to look away.
Ok, roll the film, Tom.
Is it over? Ok, it's over.
Well there you have it.
Undeniable proof that the Mexican Staring Frog of Southern SriLanka exists.
And you saw it here on the Jimbo and Ned show.
- Dude, I can't believe they fell for it.
- Yeah, what a couple of dumbasses! Yeah, they're a couple of bitch ass motherfuckers! - Come one we gotta go make another one! - Lying kicks ass! Jesus! We're in trouble.
The Jimbo and Ned show, they got some ridiculous staring frog story, and jumped another 2 points in the ratings.
- Uh-oh.
So what are we supposed to do? - I don't know.
We'll have to continue with the changes we've made and then go even further.
- And we're back in 5, 4, 3 - Remember, big big big! If you're just joining us, we've been listening to Michelle's incredible story of survival.
Go on Michelle.
Well as I was sayin', I tried and tried but my overturned car just wouldn't budge.
My husband was trapped for 12 hours.
-And yet somehow he managed to survive.
That's right.
He's a very brave man and I love him very much.
- I love you too.
- Well, let's see if the audience has any questions.
- Yes, you over there.
- I think she needs to kick him to the curb baby.
- Kick who to the curb? - Her no good husband.
She's gotta loose that zero and get herself a hero.
- But - He wants to have his cake and eat it too.
He's gotta dump that trash girlfriend.
It's all about respect, you gotta have respect for yourself.
I think we've somewhat missed the point here.
Let's go to somebody else.
- Yes your comments.
- Montel, I think we're forgetting something very important in all of this.
Ok, sure he touched some children.
But the man is a great singer, and has entertained us for so many years.
- What, what are you talking about? Michael Jackson.
All this bad mouthing, putting the man down, maybe he did touch some children now and then.
But come on it's Michael Jackson! Uh, we'll be back right after these messages.
- Ready you guys? - Ready! - Ok, action.
I am the deadly Mexican Staring Frog of Southern Sri Lanka.
I am very scary, and dangerous.
- Cut! Cartman! - What? - It's supposed to be a frog! - I know that.
- Since when do frogs talk Cartman? - It's a Sri Lanka frog! - Durr Cartman! - Durr yourself hippie! - Just do it again Cartman and don't make it talk! - Ok here we go.
Ready? - Are you ready Cartman? - I'm ready Steven Spielberg! - Action.
- Wehehe, screw you guys.
- But why do I have to dress up like an old lady? - Cause old ladies are fat and you are too.
- Come on Cartman.
The way we're shooting this, nobody will even know it's you.
They better not.
When I yell action, you start to walk this way.
And Kenny's gonna pull the plastic frog in front of you and you have to be scared.
- Scared? Of a plastic frog? - It's acting Cartman.
You have to pretend you're really scared then the Mexican Staring Frog will look you in the eyes then you fall down like you're dead ok, ready? - This is stupid.
- Good and action! Well it appears as thought a lot of you skeptics thought that the film we showed of the Mexican Staring Frog of Southern Sri Lanka was a fake.
They say it didn't harm anybody.
Well it just so happens that we just received another film from another anonymous viewer.
Roll it.
There you go.
Proof that not only is this frog real, but it is doing harm to the people of South Park as we speak.
- Mmdamn that frog.
- Well that does it.
All this week Ned and I will be risking lives from him as we go on location to hunt the Mexican Staring Frog of Southern Sri Lanka.
Join us won't ya.
Oh no no no, this is the biggest publicity stunt I've ever seen.
Damn those hunters are clever.
- Uh, clever? - It's genious, it really is.
Hell I want to watch them hunt the Mexican Staring Frog.
Unless.
- Unless what? - Unless we can prove to the world that the whole things is a sham.
If we prove that the Mexican Staring Frog from Southern Sri Lanka is just something made up by Jimbo and Ned we can have them taken off the air perhaps even killed! Look, why don't we just stick to our own show? People will watch again.
Oh J, you are so omnipotent and yet so naive.
We'll launch a full investigation and then in the meantime we can cash in on the video tapes.
What video tapes? - Yay my children, I am the way and the light.
- You've seen Jesus and pals, now you've got to get the video.
Jesus and pals too hot for TV.
Things get a little out of control.
You won't believe your eyes! Order now, only $19.
95! Remember this is stuff you can't see on TV! - Anonymous tip? - Yeah it was left on our answering machine.
All they said was that they saw the Mexican Staring Frog just South of Stark's Pond this morning.
Hey Ned, remember that time we got that anonymous tip back in Nam? - You were in Nam? Where were you statione? - MMDenang.
- With the log ride? - Yep.
- Man I was it Tet.
We had a bad ass rollercoaster, but all we ever wanted was a log ride.
We waited and we waited, but they never built us one.
I think Danforth wanted the log ride more than anybody, but he, he had to settle with that lame dinosaur water adventure ride.
That war was hell on everybody.
Ok, ok, ok bye.
Great news everybody, this week's ratings are through the roof! We're up to 20 people! - Wow! Do we get more money? - No, but I do.
We're now the highest rated show on mountain cable access.
God bless the Mexican Staring Frog.
- Dude they're gonna look so stupid.
- Heh, totally.
- They diserve for lying to us, dude.
- Revenge is so very very sweet.
They're here, hurry and hide.
- Let's hunt.
- We'll start with a 2-shot of you and Ned getting your equipment together and.
.
- Jimbo look! - Hit the deck! - What is it? - It's him.
The Mexican Staring Frog of Southern Sri Lanka.
He's right over there on that rock.
Dumbass! You've gotta keep your eyes away from him! Stay down.
- Ned you take flight position, I'll try and keep it turned away from you.
- RRroger that.
Hello fellow hunters, have we got a show for you today.
The Mexican Staring Frog is sunning itself on a rock directly behind us.
We've gotta take the frog by surprise.
I'm gonna create a diversion using this incendiary device.
While Ned will ambush him from the rear.
Now Ned, he's not looking! Quick Ned, hit him with the shot gun! Now Ned! Ned? Ned? Oh no.
Come on Ned buddy, snap out of it! - Come back to me, buddy.
- You getting all this? Hold on to your butts.
Take that you demon frog! Ned, Ned, can you hear me? Quick, somebody call and ambulance, this man is catatonick! - Get the flight for life helicopter.
- Holy crap dude.
My pony boar was beat up pretty bad.
He kept saying "Stay Gold.
" Aww Ned, if you can hear me, you gotta snap out of it.
Cause if you don't I'll never forgive myself.
Oh Stanley he's gone! My only friend in the world is gone! - Dude, he's ok.
That frog wasn't even real.
- Look.
- Ahh! What the hell are you doing! I almost looked right at it! Dude, it's just a plastic frog, it's not real, check it out.
- What? - We shot all those videos and sent them in.
Yeah, we made the whole thing up.
It was all just a really, really, funny joke! - You sent in those videos?!?!? - Oh this is not good.
My best friend is a vegetable, and I'm gonna be the laughing stock of South Park! Oh come on, Ned's faking it! That frog was just a piece of plastic.
Yeah, come on Ned, quit faking.
You boys don't understand.
Ned was so freaked out by the idea of the Mexican Staring frog that he must've set himself into a deep coma.
It's a psychosomatic response! I couldn't help over hearing your conversation just now.
- Who are you? - I produce a little TV show called Jesus and Pals, you might've heard of it.
Your story's amazing.
Full of jealoucy, deplicity, backstabbing and bitterness.
Ahhhh thanks? How would you like to share your remarkable story with us on tomorrow's show? We're back with Jimbo and his nephew Stan.
These kids can't stop lying can they? That's right Jesus, no respect for their elders.
As some of you may know I host a local show on hunting.
Thanks.
We've been hunting the Mexican staring frog for a week, based on some video footage we received from a viewer.
Well, it turns out that these kids faked the footage.
- Is that true Stan? - It was just a joke.
We didn't think it would hurt anybody.
Uh, we'll find out more about this debauchery when we return.
- And we're out.
- You're corpses up here.
- We need a lot more action from everybody.
- Like what? Like go ahead and tell how your nephew Stan takes drugs and worships Satan.
- Satan got it.
- Whoa! I don't take drugs and worship Satan! That's lying! - Give your attention on medicine you little fibber! You kids, I didn't bring you on this show to be boring! - Somebody get pissed off and throw a chair and Ned here! - Dibs! Remember, you all start a fight after the chair is thrown, that's your cue.
Welcome back to Jesus and Pals.
Jimbo, why do you think little Stanley lies? I'll tell you why.
Because he's on drugs, and he worships the devil! Jesus, Jesus, Jesus! Wow, now Stanley, it sounds like your uncle's really worried about you.
Well I only did it because he molested me! - Why you little piece of crap.
- You big piece of crap! That's it, now I'm all pissed off! - Take that hippie! - Jesus, Jesus.
- Uh, ok ok, that's enough.
- Take that you asshole! - What the fuck was that? - Uh, let's watch the language people.
- Get outta here you bitch! - Ay get off of him you fucking nutsack! Let's all make our way back to our seats.
- Oh my God, they killed Kenny! - You bastards! Let's all just make our way back to our seats.
SHUT THE FUCK UP!! Jesus! What is wrong with you people?? Look around you Stanley.
Look at all the pain and suffering your lie has caused.
Well we only did it cause Jimbo lied to us first.
We had this report on the Vietnam War for school, and we interviewed Jimbo about it and he made up all this stuff about Vietnam and he got us in trouble.
Hey now, everything I told you boys about the war, actually happened.
Mr.
Garrison said that there was no way that you could've defeated the entire Vietcong army by yourself.
- The entire Vietcong army?? - I ah, well ok, I migth've embelished the truth a little - but that's different.
- Is it? Well sure I mean, well no I guess not.
- And as for you Stan, I think you need to kick your drug habit Wait a second.
I don't take drugs, that was a lie.
- Wait, Jimbo made that up? - No.
Your producer did! - She made Jimbo tell everybody that I did drugs.
- What? During the break, your producer came over, and told Jimbo what to say about me.
She told him to lie.
It's true she did.
- I'm such a tool.
- Oh really? - Yeah then she told us to throw a chair at Ned.
Yeah I didn't wanna do it Jesus, they made me do that.
- Screw this show, I thought this was all real.
- Wait everybody, come back.
Don't feel too bad Montel.
We all wanna touch children sometimes, it's only natural.
Alright Stan, I was just trying to tell a good story.
I never meant for you boys to get in trouble.
Well we're sorry too uncle Jimbo.
We're sorry for making you look stupid in front of the whole world.
Yeah, and we're sorry for turning Ned into a vegetable.
- Ahh he'll be fine.
I'll just take him home and show him some good hard core porn, he'll snap right out of it, won't you Ned? I want to appologize to all of you for what happened in there.
In our competition for ratings we all lost sight of why we got into showbusiness in the first place.
- Yeah, TV's and beer.
- Actually I was referring more to the persuit of truth, well anyway I can't wait to get back to my old show without all the glitz and ratings and producers.
- Wait a sec, where is your producer? - I sent her away.
Sent her away where? - What is this? What's happening?? - Welcome to my dominion! Ah, take a load off, put your feet up.
Me and Satan were just aboot to go shopping for furniture.
Come on Satan! Ok honey.
