"Casa Bonita" is episode 711 of Comedy Central's South Park. It
revolves around Eric Cartman's ploys to get to a Mexican restaurant
known as Casa Bonita, which is a fairly accurate representation of the
actual restaurant in Lakewood, Colorado. The episode originally aired
on November 12, 2003
This episode starts off with Stan Marsh wondering where Kyle is,
followed by Eric Cartman saying he hopes he caught a disease and died,
with Stan and Kenny reprimanding him. Kyle arrives and announces to the
group that as a birthday treat his mother is taking him and three of
his friends to Casa Bonita, a restaurant that Cartman dreams about
frequently. Cartman is ecstatic and begins singing the "Casa Bonita
Song" until Kyle disappoints him by revealing that he has decided to
invite Butters to his birthday party rather than him.
Cartman tricks Butters into thinking that a meteor is about to hit
Earth by asking Butters to peer into a telescope and dangling a stone
in front of it. He then arranges for Butters to go into hiding to
escape the disaster; and, with Butters gone, Cartman figures he's set
to go to the restaurant with Kyle. However, Kyle, saying that it
"doesn't feel right" to go and enjoy himself after finding out that
Butters is missing, and decides to postpone the party for a week.
He later relents and invites Eric to Casa Bonita for his
birthday.
After arriving at Casa Bonita, Kyle's mother gets a call telling her that Butters is okay and that Cartman is
the one responsible for his disappearance, confirming Kyle's
doubts. They confront Cartman, notifying him that the police are on
their way. Knowing that his entire plan is close to ruin, Cartman
escapes and goes through a mad dash through the restaurant to sample
every attraction and food in the minute he has left. He is eventually
trapped and cornered by the police, the Broflovskis and the boys, and
he jumps off the waterfall. They catch up with him floating on his back
in the water below. When a police officer explains all the trouble that
Cartman's caused, and that he's going to be sent to Juvenile Hall for a
week he asks Eric if it had been worth it. Cartman responds dreamily,
"....totally," before the credits roll.
