The troublesome one

OK, I got a complete listing of all of the eps, so now I can tell which ones I missed while moving...but there was one that aired in 98 (Sept I believe) entitled "Roger Ebert Should Lay Off the Fatty Foods" (#211). My question is, what ep was this?? What happened. I can't figure it out.

Also, what happened during "Spontaneous Combustion"....missed that during the move. Thanks a bunch people.

That episode was the one where Cartman was trying out for the Cheesy Poofs commercial and the class gets hypnotized while going to the planetarium

Actually, the class was more of getting brainwashed.

Let it go on record that [email] (The troublesome one) is alleged to have said:

"Roger Ebert Should..." was about a mad planetarium attendant and his dreams of overtaking all of South Park with his machine -- it was a tribute to an episode of Star Trek: TOS, but the name escapes me right now...

In "Spontaneous Combustion" the town begins spontaneously combusting. The sub-plot is that Kyle's dad can't get "a nerection", so they crucify Cartman in the hopes that he is "resurr-erected."

Enjoy. :)

The episode was "Dagger of The Mind". From Star Trek Continuum:

Synopsis:

When Dr. Simon van Gelder, part of the psychiatric staff at the Tantalus Penal Colony escapes to the U.S.S. Enterprise, exhibiting signs of manic insanity, an enraged McCoy insists that Kirk investigate the colony. The Captain reminds McCoy of Tantalus' excellent reputation, but McCoy is unconvinced.

Kirk and Dr. Helen Noel, the U.S.S. Enterprise's psychiatrist, tour the facility. They discover that the Colony director, Dr. Tristan Adams, has been using a brainwashing device, the neural neutralizer, to control not only the colony's inmates, but his staff, as well. When the doctor realizes that Kirk has discovered his secret, he convinces the captain to try the machine for himself, to prove that it is perfectly safe. The result is that Kirk falls madly in love with Helen Noel and the two remain on the Colony as Adams' prisoners.

Meanwhile, on board the U.S.S. Enterprise, van Gelder is in such a distraught state from the neural conditioning that he is unable to explain to Spock what is going on at the penal colony. The Vulcan attempts a mind-meld with van Gelder and discovers what has been happening on the planet below. On Tantalus, Dr. Noel escapes through an air-conditioning duct to the power room, where she lowers the planet's defense shields, enabling Spock to beam down a security team.

Kirk recovers enough to fight Adams, who falls into his torturous machine. Weakened by the conditioning and his fight with the doctor, Kirk stumbles away, not knowing that Adams is still in the neutralizer. Adams is later found dead. Dr. van Gelder is made sane again and returns to direct the Tantalus Colony.

There's a sudden rash of spontaneous combustion, and Randy Marsh seeks the answer. But the cure may be worse than the disease. Meanwhile, Cartman gets crucified.
