- Quotes
Cartman: [inspecting Scott Tenorman's chili dish] Huh, this chili looks pretty good. Weh, here's mine.
[hands his chili dish to Scott, who starts eating it]
Scott Tenorman: Mmm. Ah, I don't know. Your chili is pretty good, Cartman, but I think mine is better. Try it.
Cartman: All right.
[takes the dish and starts eating. Both boys munch away for a few moments]
Cartman: Hey, this is great!
[Stan and Kyle stifle giggles]
Scott Tenorman: Eh, it's a special recipe.
Cartman: Gawh, this is really good, Scott!
Scott Tenorman: I'm glad you like it so much, because now that you're almost finished, I have something to tell you.
Cartman: What? You mean about how you put pubes in your chili?
Scott Tenorman: What?
Cartman: Yes, I'm afraid this isn't your chili, Scott. I switched it with Chef's.
[turns to Chef]
Cartman: It's delicious, Chef. I hadn't planned on that. What I did plan on, however, was that my friends, Stan and Kyle, would betray me and warn you that the Chili Con Carnival was a trap.
[Stan and Kyle are stunned]
Cartman: I assumed that they would tell you that I had trained Denkins' pony to bite off your weiner. What they didn't tell you was that Denkins is a crazy redneck who shoots trespassers on sight. Knowing that you would try and do something to the pony, I warned Mr. Denkins that violent pony killers were in the area. I also knew that you wouldn't go yourself, for fear of having your weiner bitten off. You would most likely send your parents. And, I'm afraid that when Mr. Denkins spotted them on his property, he shot and killed both your parents.
Mr. Denkins: Well, they was trespassin' and I was protectin' myself. I, I have my rights!
Scott Tenorman: My... mom and dad are... dead?
Cartman: I came just in time to see Mr. Denkins giving his report to Officer Barbrady. And of course, to steal the bodies. After a night with the hacksaw, I was all ready to put on my Chili Con Carnival, so that I could tell you personally about your parents' demise! And of course, feed you your chili. Do you like it? Do you like it, Scott? I call it, "Mr. & Mrs. Tenorman Chili."
Scott Tenorman: [looks at Cartman for a while, realizing what just happened] Oh, my God!
[gagging, he fishes through the plate and finds his mom's wedding ring, still on her finger. He tosses it away]
Scott Tenorman: Oh, my God!
[vomits off to the side]
Cartman: [leaps up on the table and sings] Nyahnyahnyahnyah nyah nyah! I made you eat your parents! Nyahnyahnyahnyah nyah nyah!
Stan: Jesus Christ, dude!
Scott Tenorman: [grief-stricken, he buries his face on the table] My mom and dad are dead!
[he pounds the table]
Scott Tenorman: No! Nooo!

I really like how Cartman is a character in the episode that is a bit sympathetic and you sort of get behind in his revenge plight. Scott Tenorman is a worthy foe for Cartman as we see like Cartman he's a person that always wants to get his way. He's spoiled rotten to the core, a bit of a grifter as he is conning Cartman and other people for money and just to insult their intelligence. He's unlikeable like with Cartman he's got bigotry of his own but it's in class; as he looks down on people that are in a lower class than him.
There is one scene that is just demonstrates the epidemy of what a scum bag Scott truly is, as he doesn't keep his end of the deal and burns Cartman's sixteen bucks. It was Scott's cruel way of saying, "You and your kind mean nothing to me." And we see Cartman just looking and feeling like crap, but we then see him look up and shout a cry of rage and we hear that thunder and know that thunder is his wrath.
I even like one scene when he arranges a meeting with all the other South Park kids, it's sort of a parody on a lot of those war room scenes and the speeches afterward in the war movies. Of course, no one wants to join in his unnoble cause so he's on his own. Though unfortunately despite his efforts nothing works mainly because Cartman isn't thinking hard enough (at least that what it seems) and sadly is getting thwarted by Scott, which just all the more make me want Cartman to win.
The ending I'll admit I honestly didn't see it coming, well ok like with most episodes from "Alfred Hitchcock Presents" I knew the hammer was going to fall but I just didn't know how hard. But it was both a shocker and blackly funny at the same time and goes with the old Klingon Proverb "Revenge is a dish best served cold"; it is very cold in South Park.
