Imaginationland used to be a happy place,
but then the terrorists attacked
and so many of us were killed.
The barrier came down and all the most evil
imaginary characters were unleashed.
Now our final battle will take place.
The evil characters are marching toward us...
With the intent to wipe us all out.
This is gonna be fun, huh?!
Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!
We prepare for a battle we cannot win.
Sweet and cuddly imaginary characters,
many who have never held a weapon,
must now fight for their very lives.
We are too few in number,
but we have one hope.
That is where you come in, young boy.
Only you can help us win this battle.
What can I do?
You have a power here that you have yet to understand.
Ahh... Ah!
Ahh!
No!
Back it up.
Look, right there!
See that?
No!
What does that look like to you?
It's Manbearpig!
I told you it was real!
Look again.
Ahh!
There!
Half man, half bear, and half pig.
Do you see it?
Yes, we see it, Mr. Gore.
Something big is going on,
and the American people need to know what.
I'm off!
Wowowoshshhsshh!
He's recovering, but there's been some trauma to his brain.
The boy says he's been hearing imaginary voices.
Hello?
Hello-- anybody?
Stan?
Hello?
Stan?
Good morning, Kyle.
How are we feeling? - Cartman, what's happened?
"What's happened?"
Well, let's see.
You bet me that I couldn't prove leprechauns were real,
and if I could prove it,
you had to suck my balls, I believe.
No, I mean what happened at the Pentagon?
You just rest, Kyle.
Look what I made for you.
A sundae.
It has hot fudge and whipped cream
and a cherry.
But I feel like something is missing, don't you, Kyle?
What else belongs on a sundae
besides hot fudge and whipped cream, hmm...
Ugh!
Hot fudge, whipped cream--
what else belongs on a sundae, Kyle?
What else goes on a sundae
besides hot fudge, whipped cream and...
Oh, that's right.
My balls.
Cartman, what is going on out there?
What happened to Stan?
Oh, he got sucked through that portal thing
and they're gonna nuke it now.
So are you all set for your big photo shoot, Kyle?
Wait, what do you mean? Stan's in danger?
Don't try to change the subject, Kyle.
You've done a really good job
of trying to get out of this bet,
but it's finally time to settle.
Get ready for your sundae, Kyle...
With extra nuts.
Aslan, the evil characters are almost here.
Get everyone to the battlefield.
Defend the castle walls.
Quickly, young boy, we need your powers now.
What powers?
I don't understand.
You are real.
You are a creator.
That means you can imagine things into existence here.
I-- I can?
Santa Claus was killed in the terrorist attack.
The first thing we need is for you to bring him back.
How?
You just have to focus your mind.
Imagine Santa and nothing else.
How am I supposed to focus with all this crap going on?
Think only of one thing.
Imagine it, believe in it.
Whatever is most prominent in your mind will come to be.
Butters, you are grounded, mister!
You hear me?
Grounded!
Agh!
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no!
What are you doing?
We need Santa!
I'm trying!
Come on, kid, imagine Santa!
Believe in Santa!
You must believe in Santa!
Believe in Santa right now!
Gah-ha!
♪ Dah-dah-dah dah-dah-dah ♪
♪ Da-di-da ♪
Kevin, can I get some more bounce off that 2-k?
Let's just go with a 5/6, 8 split.
Cartman, will you shut up?
I'm trying to find out what's going on.
A new terrorist attack seems to have taken place,
this time in our imagination.
Al Gore brought this video to the public's attention,
sparking demands by everyone
who wants to know exactly what's going on.
We were hoping to keep this quiet until it was all over,
but two days ago there was
a terrorist attack on our imagination,
and now our imaginations are running wild.
Our imaginations are running wild and we weren't told?!
By attacking our imagination
the terrorists have found our most vulnerable spot,
and we've determined that the best course of action
is to nuke our imagination.
Is nuking our imagination really prudent?
Aren't there other, more peaceful ways
to get our imagination under control?
Couldn't we try sending Kurt Russell into a portal
to our imagination to try and reason with the--
We tried that,
and Kurt Russell was raped by Christmas Critters!
Ouch.
The Pentagon claims that because imaginary things
are not real,
the military doesn't need senate approval to nuke them.
That's bullcrap, man!
You can't nuke our imagination!
Don't nuke our imagination, bro!
Woo!
Mike, does the military have the authority
to nuke our imagination?
Uh, clearly they don't, Stephen,
and they're gonna have a big problem
because state government has already set a precedent
that imaginary characters are real.
I cite a famous court case of Cartman v. Broflovski
in which a U.S. Court found for the plaintiff
who saw a leprechaun.
Yes, I believe the defendant
had to suck the plaintiff's balls in that case.
That's right, Stephen, yeah.
Oh, for the love of God!
Hello?
Can anybody hear me?
Stan?
Dude, is that you?
Kyle? Where are you?
I don't see you.
No, I'm not there, I'm in a hospital.
I'm hearing you in my imagination.
Oh, that makes sense.
Dude, what's happening?
I'm in, like, a gumdrop forest.
I just saw Strawberry Shortcake tied up and dead
with pee in her eye.
Wait, hang on.
I think something really big is about to go down.
The evil characters are here!
Defend Castle Sunshine.
Hagh!
Hi-yah!
There's no time left.
You have to get control of your imagination
and bring Santa back now!
Santa... Santa...
Think!
Jolly old Santa: red suit, white beard!
Red suit, white beard...
Santa!
Blaryagh!
Agh!
How does that look?
Can you see my balls and the sundae in frame?
A shocking new development in the nuking of imagination.
The supreme court has ruled with the military
that imaginary things are officially not real
and therefore no approval is needed to nuke them.
Thank you.
Oh, no.
This, of course, overturns
any imagination-based verdicts in the past,
including the famous
Cartman v. Broflovski ball-sucking case.
What?
So it appears the military
is ready to proceed with its operation,
one they are calling:
Operation Nuke the Imagination Through the Imagination Doorway.
Kyle, what's happening?
The government is gonna nuke Imaginationland.
What?!
You can't let them do that!
What am I supposed to do?
Dude, you have to stall them!
Oh, uh-oh, what is that?!
Hey, get outta here!
Leave me alone!
Stan... Stan?
Where are you going?
I'm going to try and save Stan and Butters
from getting nuked. Okay, okay.
But you have to suck my balls first real quick.
No I don't!
The decision was overturned!
We had a deal, Kyle!
Yeah, that leprechauns were real,
and the government just declared
they aren't technically real, so I was right!
It's over.
I don't have to suck your balls!
It isn't over!
It isn't over, Kyle!
I have not waited this long
to see you weasel your way out of this bet!
Go ahead and go, but I swear on my life,
before this day is over,
you will suck my balls.
I swear it!
Yeah, it's gets me strong to the finish...
We need more spinach for Popeye.
Ugh!
Ooh!
I got one, I got him!
Hey there! - Huh?
Yay! Yay! Yay!
We're losing the battle!
There are simply too many of them!
Then the day is lost...
Wait, Aslan, look!
What... What happened?
You did it, kid!
Quickly, Santa, they need you on the battlefield.
Huh?
Oh, all right.
Make way for Santa!
Ugh!
Hugh!
Now you see your potential, young creator.
But there is still much more we need from you
if we are to win this day.
This area is restricted, little boy!
Please, I need to talk to the people inside.
They can't set off that nuke.
Get behind the line with the other protesters.
No nukes in out imagination, bro!
Whoo! Whoo! Whoo! Whoo!
You don't understand.
My friend is in Imaginationland.
I can hear him in my head.
You pot-smoking hippies aren't getting through here,
so back off!
Stop that nuke!
What's going on here?
The military has to do this.
It's their only way to kill Manbearpig!
Wowowoshshhsshh!
Good, Butters.
Now imagine some more archers on the castle walls.
Hughgh!
Aslan, we are losing the battle!
We managed to fight off the vampires and werewolves
but now our troops are being shot down
by the Cavity Creeps!
Cavity Creeps?
We make holes in teeth!
What can destroy the Cavity Creeps?
Only Crest Gel with Tartar Control.
Quickly, you must imagine a giant Crest Gel.
Yes!
His powers are getting stronger.
We might just have a chance here.
Aslan, we've captured a spy.
He was sneaking around the Gumdrop Forest.
Stan!
Hey, look, I imagined Stan here!
No, no!
I got sucked through Project Imagination Doorway at the Pentagon.
Project Imagination Doorway?
Nevermind.
The battle is almost won.
We can deal with him later.
No, no, you don't understand.
There's a nuke.
The government is about to level this entire place.
What?
Why would they nuke Imaginationland?
So the terrorists can't ever use it against us again.
We can get Imaginationland under control!
The chosen one just needs more time!
The chosen one?
Yeah, it turns out I'm the key.
Missile launch sequence initiated.
All right, people, I want this nuking done by the books.
Sir, we have a security breach.
What?!
There's an unauthorized entry alert.
It's coming from sector two!
Sector two?
Gah!
What the hell do think you're doing,
declaring leprechauns aren't real?!
What?
You just can't declare that imaginary things aren't real.
Who are you to say what's real?
Think about it.
Is blue real? Is love really real?
Imaginary things are things made up by people,
like Santa and Rudolph.
Yeah, and they detract from real things.
Like Jesus.
Maybe Jesus is imaginary too.
Ooh, you better not say that.
You'll go to Hell.
It's possible that Hell is also imaginary.
So then we're about to nuke Hell.
That's a good thing, right?
Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. That's good, that's a good thing, yeah.
What if Heaven is imaginary?
We'd be nuking Heaven.
Yeah, but it wouldn't be real.
So it'd be all right.
Look, maybe they're all part of the same thing--
Santa and Jesus and Hell and leprechauns.
Maybe they're all real in the same way, right?
Santa Claus and leprechauns are imaginary
but Jesus and Hell are real.
Well, then what about Buddha?
Well, of course he's imaginary!
Oh, see, now you're being intolerant, Tom.
Am I real?
All right, enough!
Keep that kid out of our way
and let's get back to the nuking at hand!
No, leprechauns are real Goddamn it!
Kyle?
Kyle, what happened?
Nothing.
What?
Nothing happened-- there's nothing I can do.
Dude, you can't let the government
fire off that nuke.
They say they can do whatever they want
because imaginary things aren't real.
Well, you have to convince them they are real.
No way, dude.
Then I'd have to suck Cartman's balls.
Whatever it takes, you have to do it, all right?
Hang-- hang on, Kyle.
Jesus wants to talk to you.
Huh?
Hello, Kyle, this is Jesus.
Oh, boy.
What seems to be the problem, my child?
Jesus, I can't do anything!
I'm just a fourth-grader
going against the entire government!
Hello... Jesus?
No-- hey, Kyle, this is Luke Skywalker.
Ugh!
Look, I know this seems like an impossible task,
but you remember when I brought down the Death Star?
I mean, that seemed impossible too, right?
Yeah, I guess.
Okay, now hold on because Superman is here
and he wants to say something.
Kyle, this is Superman.
Hi, Superman.
I know that saving people can be a big responsibility,
but no matter what it takes, it's worth it.
I know.
You can do this, Kyle.
Now hang on, because Hercules wants to talk to you.
Oh, God.
Yes, God is here too.
He's gonna talk to you right after Captain Crunch.
Agh... Agh!
Popeye, I need some help here!
Popeye is being killed by Christmas Critters!
Ahghgh!
Ughgh-- Gets 'em off a me!
Hey, what is that?
More spinach for Popeye!
Imagine a M-60 for Jesus!
All right!
The boy is doing it!
Everything is going to be okay!
Missile launch in one minute.
Goddamn it!
You stupid assholes are gonna ruin everything!
Prepare for launch.
Sir, we have a security breach!
What?!
There's an unauthorized entry alert.
It's coming from sector two!
Sector two?
Agh!
Kyle?
What the hell are you doing back here?
Listen, you don't have to do this.
Our imaginations aren't running wild any more!
Why is it so easy for children
to break into the Pentagon?
You have to stop!
If I'm not mistaken, you're the one who bet
that leprechauns weren't real.
So why do you care what happens?
Because I, I...
Um, because I think they are real.
It's all real.
Think about it.
Haven't Luke Skywalker and Santa Claus
affected your lives
more than most real people in this room?
I mean, whether Jesus is real or not,
he's had a bigger impact on the world
than any of us have.
And the same can be said for Bugs Bunny
and Superman and Harry Potter.
They've changed my life,
changed the way I act on the earth.
Doesn't that make them kind of real?
They might be imaginary,
but they're more important than most of us here...
And they're all gonna be around long after we're dead.
So in a way...
Those things are more realer than any of us.
Abort the sequence.
So, Kyle, imaginary things are real, huh?
Guess that means I did win the bet after all.
And you know what that means, Kyle.
Just let it go with your fucking balls already,
you fucking asshole!
Your friends have been in danger
and all you care about is this stupid bet.
Well, I've decided, Cartman, even if we had a bet,
that I am never sucking your balls!
You got that?!
They can throw me in jail for the rest of my life
but I am never going to suck your balls ever!
So there!
What happened?!
Why hasn't the missile gone off?!
There's been an abort Mr. Gore.
No!
Manbearpig has to die!
Oh, Jesus, no!
Hahgghgh!
That's it, Aslan!
The evil characters have fled!
The day is ours!
Agh! Agh! Agh! Agh!
Kyle!
Fellas, where'd you come from?
What is that?
Huh...
He did it!
Oh, look, I'm back!
Nice going, kid!
Great job! - Yeah! - All right, - Butters!
The evil characters!
They're all back behind the wall again!
Dude, how did you do that, Butters?
I just... Used my imagination!
Aww! Aww! Aww! Aww!
You know, I really have learned a lot, you guys.
What Kyle said about imaginary things being real,
and Butters using his imagination,
it makes me think that--
Well, maybe we all have the power
to make things a reality.
Oh, why, look, it's me!
And...
And there's Kyle!
And what's Kyle about to do?
Cartman, don't.
Oh, Kyle!
What are you doing to my balls?
Oh-ho, look!
It's Kyle sucking my balls!
Dude.
Oh, my God!
Oh, Kyle, you are gobbling those balls, aren't you?
I told you you would suck my balls before this was over,
didn't I, Kyle?
I'm not sucking your balls.
That's imaginary!
No, Kyle, I believe you said
that imaginary things are real.
That's true, you did!
Oh, look at you go, Kyle!
Oh, you dirty girl.
You love those balls!
Okay, Kyle, that's enough ball-sucking.
We need to get you boys home.
I am not sucking Cartman's balls!
Whatever you imagine to be real is real!
Woo-hoo! Woo-hoo! Woo-hoo! Woo-hoo!
Butters... Butters!
Huh?!
What?
Oh...
Oh, it was all just a dream.
Come on, Butters, time to get up.
Oh, Dad, I had the craziest dream.
I saved all of Imaginationland from running wild
after a terrorist attack!
You were in Imaginationland, Butters!
We've read all about it in the paper.
The question is:
what were you doing in Imaginationland
when you were supposed to be helping your mother
clean up the basement?
You are grounded, mister!
Aww.
Wait, I'm not grounded.
Oh, yes, you are!
Oh, yeah?
That only works in Imaginationland.
You're grounded!
Aw, shit.
