Mysterion Rises

The episode was written and directed by series co-creator Trey Parker, and was rated TV-MA-LV in the United States.

The group is now led by Mysterion, although still called "Coon and Friends" (because it "pisses Cartman off beyond belief", which Mysterion finds extremely funny), and hold a bake sale to aid those in the Gulf affected by Cthulhu's arrival at the end of the previous episode, meeting a strange man who state their efforts to stop Cthulhu are futile.

Coon and Friends then return to find that Captain Hindsight has ransacked their base looking for incriminating photos of him with Courtney Love.

The boys reveal the pictures are fake and solely constructed by Eric Cartman as blackmail, but Hindsight is too conflicted to believe them.

While doing so, Human Kite (Kyle Broflovski), among others, all too shocked to keep up the act, off-handedly calls Mysterion by his real name, Kenny McCormick, to calm down.

It is revealed that every time Kenny dies, he simply wakes up in his bed the next day restored to full health.

Back at South Park, Coon and Friends learn about the cult of Cthulhu, and they discover that Kenny's parents were a part of it.

Kenny's parents were only indirectly involved with the Cult of Cthulhu (they only went for the free beer), and he forces them to tell him whereabouts of the South Park chapter.

Together with the other heroes, they go to the Cult meeting, and notice familiar faces (Mr. Adler, the Goth Kids, and the Star Trek fans).

The rest of the Friends show up at his bedroom door asking him why he ran away from the cult and that they have to defeat Cthulhu, completely unaware of the fact that he just died.

A brown-haired man wearing a white shirt and gray jacket smiles.
