Ep 5. Eek! A Penis!

In South Park season 12 episode 5, entitled "Eek! A Penis!", the town of South Park is once again taken by a storm of controversy. This time, the issue at hand is the size of the kindergarten teacher's penis. When Ms. Garrison undergoes a gender reassignment surgery to become a man once again, the parents of South Park become fixated on the size of his penis and how it will affect their children's education.

As the townspeople continue to obsess over the teacher's genitalia, the boys – Stan, Kyle, Cartman, and Kenny – approach their own concerns regarding male anatomy. The boys believe that there is a direct correlation between the length of a man's penis and his level of happiness and success in life. In order to test their theory, they begin measuring the lengths of everyone's penises in town, including celebrities like Tom Cruise and Mr. Slave.

The boys' obsession with penis size leads them to create a "penis enlarger" that they believe will help them achieve the perfect size and be successful in life. However, their attempts at enlargement only lead to disastrous results. Meanwhile, Ms. Garrison – now fully transitioned back into being a man – struggles to come to terms with his new identity and the attention surrounding his penis.

Throughout the episode, "Eek! A Penis!" satirizes society's fascination with gender and genitalia, turning harmful stereotypes and biases into farce. It also serves to criticize the obsession with outward appearances and societal norms, as the townspeople and the boys alike place immense pressure on themselves and others to fit into a narrow definition of masculinity.

As always, South Park delivers biting commentary on social issues while using humor to expose the absurdities surrounding them. "Eek! A Penis!" showcases the show's signature brand of controversial humor and irreverent satire, making for a thought-provoking and entertaining episode.
