                          A present?? Is it a rocket racer?? 
                         No, let me guess: It's a Froagman Jay 
                         doll! No wait, I know! It's a police 
                         power chopper!

                         to help you win the big spelling bee 
                         tomorrow.

                          Mom, I'm not going to win the spelling 
                         bee; I never do.

                          What the hell is "Hooked On Monkey 
                         Fonics?"

                         It's a new way to learn how to read 
                         and spell. And it comes with everything 
                         you need to help win that speling bee. 
                          It says we just put the cassette into

                         level 1. I will read the sounds and 
                         the monkey will help keep the beat. 
                          If your monkey arrived in the box dead, 
                         call 1-800-555-4500 to get a new monkey. 
                         Ready? Let's begin. 
 
               The learning monkey is here to say

               That reading is easy and it's okay.

               [Liane starts swaying like a metronome]

               Work with the monkey and you will learn

               To spell hard words, like "morbid" and "burn."

               Start with Card 1. [Liane holds it up] Ready? Begin! [glissant] 
               C, H. [a "ch" sound] Chalk. [the monkey plays four beats more, 
               then turns to Cartman. One more beat...] 
 
                                     CARTMAN
                          C, H. "Ch." Chalk.

                         T, H. "Th." There. Hey, this is easy! 
                          I'm gonna win the spelling bee for 
                         sure, Mom!

                         Sure! When it comes to spelling bees, 
                         always bet on the Jew.

                         Bring him out here, and then we're gonna 
                         duct-tape him to this flagpole.

               anyway. Wendy and Bebe hop back and forth. Tweek dances as well.

                          Calm down, papá!  Everything is all 
                         right.  You see, I've learned something 
                         today. Public schools may be a bit lacking 
                         in education, but it's the main place 
                         where children learn all of their social 
                         skills. You can't teach a child social 
                         skills. They have to learn them themselves. 
                         And the only place to do that is on 
                         the playground, in the cafeteria, and 
                         so on.  Don't you see, papá? That's 
                         what happened to your daughter. You 
                         tried so hard to keep her from anythng 
                         sexual, and now look at her. She's a 
                         God-damned whore, papá.

                         I know letting your kids out into the 
                         world is scary. I know you wish nothing 
                         bad would ever happen to us. But bad 
                         things will happen, and we have to start 
                         learning now how to deal with those 
                         things.
