    In the pointy end of the 12th season of South Park: Mr. Garrison takes his class to an 1860s reenactment center. All the kids need to have a partner, and Cartman ends up stuck with Butters. After seeing an indoor theme park next door, Cartman and Butters sneak off. Meanwhile terrorists take over the 1860s area and take the kids hostage.

    Mr. Garrison takes the fourth grade class on an educational field trip to Pioneer Village where dedicated workers act as their counterparts from 1864 and never break character. Stan and Wendy match up .. Cartman tries to be partners with Kenny but Kenny ends up with Kyle, and Cartman with Butters, and Mr. Garrison tells Butters not to let go of Cartman's hand until they were both back on the bus. Cartman didnt like the place soo he sneaked out to Super Phun Thyme... and back at the village some group trigger-happy thieve has taken averyone hostage .. and the workers at the village still refuse to break the character. and at the end Cartman and butters saves everyone and at the end of the work they the workers break character and go to T.G.I.

    This was a highly enjoyable episode in what has been a mixed season so far. Let's face it - the writers have set themselves such a high standard, that anything less than brilliant is a bit disappointing.

    The theme in this one was following instructions to the letter. In Butters' case, it was his teacher's command to keep hold of Cartman until his partner was back on the bus. In the case of the theme camp performers - it was 'stay in character no matter what'.

    There were some great moments. Garrison's plea to the terrorists to think of the children (and take one of them as a hostage instead of him)was one such.

    So, in my view this was definitely the right episode to end the first half of the Season. As usual, we will be counting the days until the resumption.moreless

    A class field trip to the living museum takes a deadly turn. Mr. Garrison takes the fourth grade class on an educational field trip to a Pioneer Village where dedicated workers remain in character as their pioneer counterparts from the 1800's. Cartman forces Butters to ditch the fanatical townsfolk and the class to go to the amusement center located right next door. While the rest of the kids are reluctantly learning about the good old days in Colorado, a group of trigger-happy thieves break into the museum and take everyone hostage. Super Fun Time, a great episode as usual. Loved it.moreless

    • Cartman asks Craig to be his partner but someone that Cartman asked before said that they were partners with Craig. Edit
    • When Franz shoots "Sheriff McLawdog" he's got attached silencer on his gun, which is later removed when he shoots "Old Smithy", but it still sounds suppressed. Edit
    • Even though the door code is 1864, the employee shot by Pioneer Paul says it starts with 52. They apparently noticed this mistake and fixed it for subsequent reruns, so that Paul instead says that it starts with 1. Edit

    ADD ALLUSIONS
    • Smug Alert: When Cartman is telling Butters about his plan to climb across the traffic light and back into the park, a Toyota Prius can be seen in the background with the license plate "17MYMPG" (17 is my Miles Per Gallon). This is a subtle reference to the second episode of Season 10, "Smug Alert!", where it was stated that people who own hybrid cars have the need to act smug and show off. Edit
    • The Defiant Ones: Butters and Cartman's "escape" while holding hands throughout the episode may be a reference to the 1958 film The Defiant Ones:. In the film, two escaped prisoners who are handcuffed together start off hating each other but gradually become friends, similar to the relationship between Cartman and Butters in this episode. Edit
    • NBC Jingle: When the parks intercom system comes on with an announcement, the opening jingle is the popular 3 toned jingle from NBC. Edit
