#SouthPark - #CasaBonita
"Casa Bonita" is the eleventh episode of the seventh season of the American animated television series South Park, and the 107th episode of the series overall. It first aired on Comedy Central in the United States on November 12, 2003. In the episode, Cartman misleads Butters into going missing in order to gain an invitation to Kyle's birthday party. The titular restaurant in the episode is based on the real-life Casa Bonita, a chain of Mexican-themed restaurants in Denver, Colorado.
The episode was written by series co-creator Trey Parker. The show's writing team had the idea of Cartman convincing Butters to disappear long before the episode's production. The rest of the episode's storyline and script were developed in the week preceding its broadcast. The inclusion of Casa Bonita was based on the crew's memories of going there as children; Parker, co-creator Matt Stone, director Eric Stough, and other members of the show's staff had visited the restaurant before. As such, the show's depiction of the restaurant is fairly accurate.
The episode received positive reviews from television critics, and is one of Parker's favorite episodes. The real-life restaurant saw an increase in visitors following the episode's airing. "Casa Bonita" was released on DVD along with the rest of the seventh season in 2006, and it is currently available for streaming on Hulu.
Kyle announces that as a birthday treat, his mother Sheila is taking him and three of his friends to Casa Bonita. Cartman's initial joy is crushed when Kyle says he is taking Stan, Kenny, and Butters and not Cartman. Cartman decides to prove that he is actually nice, but since kindness is such a foreign concept to him his first attempts are unsuccessful. Eventually he succeeds and Kyle is touched, and tells him that if Butters is for some reason unable to attend, Cartman can. Cartman subsequently tells Butters that a meteor is about to hit Earth and hides him in a bomb shelter, so that he does not appear in time for the trip.
Cartman is set to replace Butters when Butters' parents tearfully inform the boys that Butters is missing. Kyle postpones his party, and Cartman hears police will be checking bomb shelters, potentially ruining his plan. He then tells Butters that the meteor has hit, civilization has crumbled, and that the world is filled with radioactive cannibals. He moves Butters to a broken-down gas station where he locks him in an abandoned refrigerator for his protection. After Cartman leaves for Casa Bonita with Kyle, a garbage truck comes and takes Butters to the city dump. Butters mistakes the dump for post-apocalyptic Earth, and after finding a dog, tries to build a "new civilization." A junkyard worker stumbles across Butters and tells him where he really is, and that everyone is fine and they have been searching for him for more than a week.
