After going through extensive researching, Randy finds out that people need to flatulate only in moderation in order to fight against the global warming.

However, Stan tells him that he learned something from the Stations of the Cross: Even though Jesus was hated by all the people he knew and denied by his friends, he still did what he had to do and, as he was dying, raised his right hand and stated, "The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few" (which Kyle later points out is a quote from Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan). Randy does not want to try to find a solution for his problem, since all the people in town would still hate him, even if he managed to solve the combustion/global warming conundrum.

Meanwhile, Gerald manages to get an erection, after seeing some attractive, young female clients undress in his office (to show him the skin cancer for which they claim Randy is responsible) after telling Kyle everything is going to be alright, Kyle is so glad for his father that he forgets about Cartman on the cross. Randy, blamed for the crisis, is stripped of his Nobel Prize, and stoned and forced to walk through the town with his own statue on his back, being denied by his friends (as Jesus was in the Stations of the Cross). He discovers that it is the methane gas from all the flatulence that led to the global warming. He is later taken down by Chef until he tells him it was all "just a dream" and he is still on the cross, angering him even more.Īnother crisis then comes up, when a heat wave hits the town, and again Randy is hired to figure out the cause.

Meanwhile, Cartman (still on the cross) is getting upset and tired that Stan and Kyle will not take him down, even going as far as claiming his mother Liane is worried and "calling" for him.

Mephesto, who wanted to win the prize for creating a Galapagos turtle with seven asses he then plots revenge. For this, he wins the Nobel Prize and a statue is made for him, much to the ire of South Park's only other scientist, Dr. Meanwhile, Randy manages to find out that the combustions are caused by people refusing to flatulate in front of their partners (Kenny was spending some time with Kelly, his girlfriend from the previous episode) and so he encourages everyone in town to flatulate every few seconds. Afterwards, the boys take the cross and put it up outside the church, with Cartman still attached, so that he will die and get a " res-erection" to give to Gerald. The boys get drawn into presenting the Stations of the Cross in church, with Cartman tied to the cross in the role of Jesus, after repeated pleading that he could not play any other role. Meanwhile, various members of the town, beginning with Kenny, start to spontaneously combust, which causes the townspeople to attend church more, and compels Mayor McDaniels to order Randy Marsh to discern the cause for the combustions. Kyle discovers that his father Gerald and his mother Sheila are having marital difficulties caused by Gerald's erectile dysfunction, and he and the others ( Kenny, Stan, and Cartman) try to give him "a ne-rection" (which the boys confuse with "a resurrection"), unaware of what it actually is. Mayor McDaniels puts Randy Marsh in charge of finding out why people are dying from it. In the episode, Kenny and many other townsfolk start dying from spontaneous combustion. It originally aired in the United States on April 14, 1999.
