Story
Description
When Cartman doesn't show up for school for several days, Stan, Kyle and Kenny ditch class and visit his house to see what's wrong. They find him in his backyard, holding a tea party with dolls and stuffed animals. The boys are so disturbed that, instead of making fun of Cartman, they consult Mr. Mackey about what to do. He tells the boys to videotape a tea party so he can study it. The boys happily comply.
Later, Cartman asks his mom who his father is. She says she "met" him eight years earlier at the Twelfth Annual Drunken Barn Dance. The problem, as Cartman soon discovers, is that his mother seems to have slept with quite a few people that night including Chef and Mr. Garrison.
Cartman, furious, confronts Mr. Garrison at a local watering hole. His teacher admits he might have had sex with his mother, but so did a lot of other people. He challenges anyone in the packed bar who hadn't had sex with Cartman's mom to fess up. Nobody -- not even Jesus -- does so.
Dr. Mephesto says he can do a DNA test to find out who among the many, many candidates is Cartman's real dad. But it will cost $3,000. Dejected, Cartman tells Stan and Kyle about the search for his father, and despairs as to how he'll raise the money for the test. Stan and Kyle, against their better judgment, tell him they sent in a tape to the TV show America's Stupidest Home Videos, which has made the finals for a $10,000 best-video prize. They offer to cut him in.
Cartman is at first grateful. He's less grateful when he sees they've sent in footage of one of his tea parties. The video loses to a tape shot by Stan's grandpa of Kenny being run over by a train.
However it does get a $3,000 runner-up prize, which is enough for the DNA test. Dr. Mephesto reveals the results at his lab, which is packed with all the potential dads, including Officer Barbrady, Chef, Jimbo, Mr. Garrison, Ned, Chief Running Water, Gerald Brovlofski (Kyle's dad), Dr. Mephesto and his "friend," Kevin, and the entire 1989 Denver Broncos.
The show then ends with a teaser, saying the answer will come on the next episode.
"What? Son of a bitch!" Cartman rails.
Cartman's Tea Party
Clyde Frog is based on a character of the same name from a children's show from the 1970s called "The Clyde Frog Show". Clyde Frog, may he rest in peace, was Eric’s favorite stuffed animal and his name appears in the script more than any of Cartman’s other stuffed animals.
Clyde Frog previously had his head ripped off by Kyle in “Tonsil Trouble” but seemed to make a full recovery and appeared in “Dances With Smurfs". He was then brutally murdered again in “1%”.
Muscle Man Marc is loosely based on the fashion designer Marc Jacobs, who has Clyde Frog and Rumpertumskin tattooed on his forearms. When Trey and Matt heard about his tattoos, they thought it was cool so they created Muscle Man Marc as an homage to the tattoos. If you look closely you can see that Muscle Man Marc also has Rumpertumskin and Clyde Frog on his arms. After seeing the show, (the real) Marc Jacobs tattooed Muscle Man Marc on his arm, complete with the accompanying Clyde Frog and Rumpertumskin to scale.
For a limited time, a retail Muscle Man Marc was even available on the Marc Jacobs website!

Shout Outs
America's Stupidest Home Videos is a takeoff of America's Funniest Home Videos.
On this episode, Jay Leno guest stars as "Kitty". He has three lines, all of which are cat noises.
The lustful song "Like a Throbbing Star " plays every time Cartman's mom "falls in love". This is a rip on the song "My Heart Will Go On" from Titanic.
Pwn'd
Bob Saget, who's portrayed as the smarmy, unfunny host of a lame video clip show
Bonus Factoids
Pointless Observations
A fake commercial for a Terrence and Phillip cartoon, Not Without My Anus, is shown. This was actually the next episode shown. It premiered on April 1, 1998, and was offered as an April Fool's joke to fans waiting to find out who Cartman's dad was.
At Cartman's tea party, we meet Polly Prissypants, Rumper Tumpskin, Peter Panda, and Clyde Frog (Cartman later calls Clyde Frog "the best stuffed animal he ever had" in Die Hippie, Die.
These stuffed animals will all make appearances in future. Peter Panda looks an awful lot like Petey the Sexual Harassment Panda mascot, who we meet in Sexual Harassment Panda.
When Cartman is all thugged out, he has a knuckle ring that reads "PIE". He's also wearing a clock around his neck, much like rapper Flavor Flav of Public Enemy.
Cartman uses the F word for the first time in this episode.
