Synopsis

Shelly gets chicken pox and has to be hospitalized. The doctor explains to Mrs. Marsh that it can be worse for older children. She decides that Stan should get it while he's young, so she convinces the other boys' parents to get all of them infected by sending Stan, Cartman, and Kyle to Kenny's house to sleep over, since Kenny already has it. Stan and Cartman get sick, but Kyle sill doesn't get it. He eventually overhears his mother on the phone talking about the plan. He decides to get even with the parents by getting a prostitute to give them herpes by using their toothbrushes and so forth. Afterwards, Kyle eventually comes down with chicken pox really hard, and all the boys are hospitalized. All the parents come to visit them, and the boys confess that they gave them the Herpes that they all have now. The parents see the error of their ways and everybody has a good laugh.
