    That's ME

    Uh but it must have been a real short movie, though, because Dad came out, like, ten minutes later. ...And it must have been a sad film, too, because, he had a bunch of tissue paper with him when he came out. Poor old Dad, the movie really got to him. Inspector Butters gets all the facts. I even got some neato pictures. Holds them up for his mom to see. She walks over and takes them from him. She sees her husband gong into the theater, then into the spa, then being rammed by a man from behind... The only thing I can't figure out is why dad told you he was goin' shoppin' for your present when he was goin' out to see the movies an' wrestlin'. His mom faints right to the floor Oh, did you have a nice "trip," Mom? See you next "fall." Hahaha, yo- Ma?

    Storyline

    Edit

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      The chanting "one of us, one of us, gooble gobble, gooble gobble," is from the movie Freaks (1932).
    • Goofs
      In this episode Butters' father's first name is Chris, while in later shows it changes to Steven.

      This is not a goof, but rather an intentional change made to the character once his role became more prominent within the show.
    • Quotes

      Butters: [comes back from spying on his father] I'm back, Ma!

      Mrs. Stotch: Oh, hi, sweetid. Did you get to follow your dad around?

      Butters: I sure did. Dad sure had a nice night out

      Mrs. Stotch: Well, did you see what he got me for our anniversary?

      Butters: Well, first, he went to see a movie.

      Mrs. Stotch: A movie? Huh... I wonder why he'd want to see a movie all by himself.

      Butters: I don't know, but it wasn't the movie theater at the mall. No, it was that really old theater downtown, uh, Studcat. I didn't even know it was open.

      Mrs. Stotch: [upon hearing this, gets a bad feeling] Wait a minute. What was the movie called?

      Butters: Fisting Fireman 9. I've never seen 1 through 8.

      Mrs. Stotch: [goes shocked hearing this] Oh, my God!

      Butters: Well, it must have been a real short movie, though, because dad came out, like, ten minutes later. It must have been a sad film too because he had a bunch of tissue paper with him when he came out. Poor old dad, the movie really got to him.

      Mrs. Stotch: Butters, where did daddy go after the movie?

      Butters: To the gym.

      Mrs. Stotch: [somewhat relieved] To the gym...

      Butters: Yeah, the White Swallow Spa.

      Mrs. Stotch: [goes shocked even more] AH!

      Butters: Yep, he went in there and wrestled with all kinds of guys. He wasn't too good, though. This one black guy had him pinned down for fifteen minutes straight.

      Mrs. Stotch: [about to lose it] Butters, are you sure about this? You have to be absolutely sure!

      Butters: [smiles] Inspector Butters gets all the facts. I even got some neato pictures!

      [Butters shows his mom the pictures, she sees one of her husband enter the gay theater, another where he enters the gay bathhouse, and another where another guy has a gay intercourse with him, Mrs. Stotch is totally shocked]

      Butters: The only thing i can't figure out is why dad told you he was going out shopping for your present when he was going out seeing movies and wrestling.

      [Mrs. Stotch faints]

      Butters: Whoa, did you have a nice 'trip', Ma? See you next 'fall'! Ha, ha, ha! Uh, mom?
