Synopsis

This episode was presented in "Spooky Vision": pictures of Barbra Streisand were in each corner of the screen for the duration. Mrs. Marsh's monthly visitor, Aunt Flo, gave Stan a goldfish for a present. Stan thought it was spooky, but his mother made him graciously accept it. The first night, the fish killed two people, and Mrs. Marsh buried them in the backyard, thinking she was covering up for Stan. Officer Barbrady dropped by to inquire about the missing victims, but Mrs. Marsh imprisoned him in the basement, without his pants. Meanwhile, Cartman is alternately his normal self and a goateed nice guy. Eventually, the two arrive at the bus stop together, and the rest of the boys and Chef figure out that this new Cartman is from an evil parallel universe, and they assume that the fish is from there as well. They find out that the fish was bought at "Indian Burial Ground Pet Shop," which has a vortex to the other dimension. The evil Stan and Kyle come through the vortex to retrieve "evil" Cartman, and release the rest of the evil animals from the store. The good Stan and Kyle get the device to send people back to the evil universe during the ensuing frenzy, and send back the evil Stan and Kyle. They try to keep the "evil" Cartman and send away the other, but the "good" Cartman tricks them and manages to stay.

Reviews

My Favorite Halloween episode

kp4everNovember 8, 2006

I loved the part where Stan said You think I did all this,but I'll proof to you it was this censored fish. I also love the scene when the evil Kyle and Stan from the parral universe come for the evil Cartman,and find regular Cartman.You spend $1.50 on those. We're taking you back mr.goody two shoes,I've got a better idea,why don't you censored yourselves. When Kenny brings a sqash instead of a pumpkin,because that's all he could afford,Cartman got upset,Whoever heard of a Sqash-o-lantern.
