Sharpie Nipples
I really liked this one. It’s a dark spoof of Cape Fear, complete with the eerie music, and South Park turns the whole revenge story into something hilarious and completely its own.
The Captain Pike / Star Trek inspiration for Miss Claridge’s wheelchair is a sharp little extra that works perfectly, especially with yes/no beeps and the battery dying out. And this ep even had some Shelley focus after a long time.
The preschool flashback is pure gold – the boys deciding to play firemen by starting a real fire and then pissing on it (and eventually on their burning teacher) is classic South Park absurdity. And that photo of Sharon’s breasts that turns out to be Cartman’s butt with Sharpie nipples drawn on? I was laughing way too hard at that. It’s gross, stupid, and somehow still brilliant.
7.5/10: A strong, twisted episode that balances dark tension with peak silliness.
