Synopsis

While playing with the other boys, Cartman shows them degrading pictures of Butters while he's sleeping at Cartman's house. He is nearly going to tell them about his "ultimate plan" to embarrass Butters, but he is stopped short when Butters unexpectedly arrives. The next morning he runs up to the bus stop showing the boys a picture of Butters' penis in his mouth, thinking that this would make Butters look gay. The boys are disgusted and tell Cartman that he is the one that is gay, not Butters. Cartman panics and pleads for a way to undo the act. Kyle sarcastically tells Cartman that the only way he can reverse the "gay polarity" is to put his own "wiener" in Butters' mouth. Cartman finds Butters back up in his own room and tries to follow through with Kyle's plan, but Mr. Stotch walks in on them. Butters' father, initially shocked, convinces himself that Butters must just be "bi-curious." Priest Maxi further tells Butters that he is just "confused" (which Butters accepts, since he honestly is confused about the term), and Butters is sent to Camp New Grace, a reparative therapy camp to "Pray the Gay Away" (the camp's slogan).

Camp New Grace.

Cartman discovers that Kyle misled him and plans to simply destroy the photo so that no one will ever know, but Kyle and the others threaten to tell other people unless Cartman is really nice to them forever. Later, when Cartman is unable to find the picture, he blames Kyle for its disappearance.

At New Grace, most of the campers seem to be self-loathing, and in nearly every scene someone commits suicide with little concern from the camp officials. Butters is introduced to his twitchy, nervous "accountabilibuddy" Bradley, who is constantly quoting Bible verses under his breath.

Butters "meets" his first accountabilibuddy, Ryan.

Back in South Park, Cartman tries to report the theft of the photo to Sergeant Yates. When that fails, he goes home and makes himself cry, running to his mom and telling her that Kyle has a picture of him and he's going to use it to make fun of him the next day at Show and Tell. Mrs. Cartman calls Kyle's mom, who quickly assures her that Kyle doesn't have the picture. Cartman refuses to believe what Kyle's mother has said. Liane tells her son there is nothing else she can do and Cartman, horrified that his mother couldn't help, decides that if he cannot stop Kyle from showing the picture to the class, he will at least deny him the satisfaction of humiliating him by printing out another picture and showing it to the class himself.

Liane comforts Cartman.

At New Grace, a male underwear ad from a 1979 Sears Catalogue is found in Bradley and Butters' room, and both boys are punished. As they carry out their penance, Bradley apologizes for getting Butters into trouble with the catalogue, and then becomes horrified, realizing that he "likes" Butters. Butters innocently tells him that he "likes" him too, which causes Bradley to panic and run away, declaring that "our only way out is to kill ourselves." Eventually, Bradley turns up on a bridge, on the verge of committing suicide. Butters then gets mad and gives a speech about how he was only confused after people told him he was and that it was okay to be bi-curious. He surmises that if all of them came from God, it must mean God is "a little bi-curious, too." After the speech, Bradley changes his mind about committing suicide, and Butters' father admits to Butters that he's bi-curious himself (referring to Butter's Very Own Episode).

Meanwhile, in South Park, Cartman confronts Kyle and states he will not let Kyle embarrass him in front of the whole class. He then volunteers to go first for Show and Tell with his photography project. After showing the class a long slide show of artistic photos he took, he reveals the picture of him with Butters' penis in his mouth. The whole class utters groans of disgust, and Cartman claims that the photo is a statement of protest against the war in Iraq. Mr. Mackey then walks in and tells Cartman that there's a note from his mom. He then reads it out loud, which tells Cartman not to show the picture because Kyle never had the picture; it was under his desk the entire time. The episode ends with a shocked and dismayed Cartman uttering the word lame. Mr. ...
