Can anyone back me up on this? It seems that I'm the only one that remembers that there was a Part II of the episode where B&B go to Mexico to get M-80s. On the way back, B&B are supposed to help Dan smuggle drugs back into the country. Dan says something about not getting a free ride without having to do something for him. He tells them to open the glove compartment. B&B pull out a box of condoms, and the look on their faces is unforgettable. I think they say something about not wanting to have sex with Dan, or something. Anyway, Dan tells them that he wants them to use the condoms to swallow the drugs so that they can smuggle them across the border. So, B&B fill the condoms with drugs, swallow them, and then Dan tells them that they were supposed to tie the ends of the condoms first. B&B get totally stoned, and at the border, the border patrols won't let them back in the country, because they can't prove that they're Americans. B&B are just dazed with all the stars going around their heads and are laughing uncontrollably. One guard asks them to name the capital of Texas, and they both reply with some wacked out answer. Then one guard says to the other, "Let 'em through. They're OBVIOUSLY Americans. The Mexicans KNOW what the capital of Texas is."

It was a classic episode, but I only saw it once (for obvious reasons). This was one of those episodes that MTV put a disclaimer on the bottom of the screen about: "Beavis and Butthead are cartoons. If a real person were to swallow condoms full of drugs, it could be deadly."

Yeah, Butthead said "Oh, no. Dave's going to boff us." Hilarious. I've only seen it twice, in the early days (before the fire ban.) Sure wish I had it on tape.

Yep, you are right. In the censored version, the episode ends right after B&B are taking a dump after eating tacos with 'Mexican Death Sauce' on them. Of course this leaves you wondering why Dave took them down to Mexico in the first place, and why he said 'This ride a'int free boys'. The uncensored version has all the other great stuff you mentioned (I have it on tape). I believe this one was shown only once or twice and was banned long before the fire fiasco.

I think there were only 3 episodes with disclaimers in them (and they are 3 of the best!). There is 'Way Down Mexico Way' that you mentioned, 'Stuart's House' where the disclaimer is 'If you're not a cartoon, stove gas will kill you' when the boys are sniffing stove gas to get high, and the last one is in 'Home Improvement', the disclaimer being 'Breathing paint thinner will damage your brain, looks what it's done to Beavis and Butthead' when they are sniffing paint thinner to get high. Great stuff.

Beavis (imitating Andy Rooney): "Did you ever wonder why it's called taking a dump instead of leaving of dump? 'Cause you're not really *taking* one!"

Yeah, dude. You saw it right. PC Sucks.

ObSikkoExample: Anytime you see the Bugs Bunny cartoon "The Big Snooze" (yeah, you know the one... begins chase scene; log over the cliff.. bugs runs in, folowed by elmer... usual spinning log gag... then elmer emerges, rips up his warner contract and a psycedelic nightmare ensues), anyway, so anytime it is shown nowadays, a scene involving Bugs eating SLEEPING PILLS (!!!) is unceremoniously snipped out. No pretense on editing, just a pure snip.

Whatever....
