Episode 23: "Return of the Son of Stimpy" Stimpy's search for his son Stinky has taken him to the same island that the other campers are on, unknownst to Stimpy however. Stimpy is surprised by the menagerie of giant versions of creatures from "Catdog" that include blue rats, green rabbits, yetis, and barely clothed wild humans. Stimpy says: "Okay, this is weird, even by Nicktoons standards! But that doesn't matter, I've just GOT to find my son!" / On the other side of the island, Otto and the girls are pondering what to do. Otto says: "Well, THIS is a fine kettle of fish!" Lil says: "I didn't know you knew how to cook!" Otto says: "That was another metaphor, Lil!" Sandy says: "What Otto means to say is that it looks like we're caught between a rock and a hard place." Lil says: "Actually, it looks like we're caught between the river and those wild animals!" Sandy says: "For goodness sakes, don't you understand ANY metaphor when someone says it?!" Lil says: "I kind of missed the metaphor session course in school." (Confessional) Otto says: "So there I was, trapped on a beast-filled island with two hot girls! Too bad one of them was a complete basket case and the other one couldn't and can't stand my guts! / Sandy says: "Honestly, I didn't know HOW things were going to get any worse in this unfamiliar environment. Then of course, irony had to open up in the sky and say, I hate you, Sandy Cheeks." (End Confessional) Otto says: "Somehow Lil, I KNOW this is your fault!" Lil says: "How can you hold ME responsible for the rain and subsequent flood that happened last night?!" Otto says: "Weird things ALWAYS happen around YOU, Lil!" Lil says: "It's not like I intend to find weird things, it's often that weird things tend to find me!" Otto sarcastically says: "I'm sure THAT happens often!" Sandy says: "Knock it off! This is no time to be arguing! We need to formulate a plan!" Otto says: "Why bother? I'm sure that Sniz and Fondue have already sent a search party looking out for us! Therefore, we should STAY in this spot!" Sandy says: "Or this could be another challenge, designed to test our survival skills, and we need to build a raft to get back to camp!" Lil says: "Aren't you guys forgetting something? This is a reality TV show recorded by the Fairy Godparents! They and the cameras are just invisible! Why don't we just ask one of them to poof us back to camp?!"
Otto says: "That would be a GREAT idea except for one thing, Fairy Godparents aren't allowed to interfere in challenges! Besides, Sniz and Fondue will get here. It will just take them a little time." Sandy says: "Are you SURE about that? The guys running this show behind the scenes aren't exactly the sharpest knives in the drawer!" Lil says: "Whatever THAT metaphor means!" (Confessional) Sniz says: "Okay, I'm looking over this episode right now and I can state that most of the Fairy workers were deeply offended by that knife comment!" (End Confessional) Otto says: "I'm not going anywhere!" Sandy says: "Look, just last night you were complaining about having nothing to do and now you just want to sit here?!" Otto says: "Look, getting myself KILLED by a bunch of rabid, giant animals is NOT my idea of adventure! If YOU want to go out there, better that YOU die than me!" Sandy says: "Oh, that's REALLY mature of you to say!" Lil says: "Can I just state that for the record that we wouldn't be in this mess if we had just went after Stimpy?" Otto says: "If Stimpy hadn't have left, we wouldn't BE in this mess in the 1st place!" Sandy says: "And how exactly do you figure on THAT being the case?!" Otto says: "Because if Stimpy was here, we could use him as bait!" Lil angrily says: "THAT'S MY boyfriend you're talking about! I'm SICK of you! BOTH of you! How DARE you call yourselves campers?! Even someone as crazy as I KNOWS better! I should've NEVER tried to be cool by sticking with the both of YOU! I'm going out to look for Stimpy AND his son, and I'm going WITH or without either of you!" Otto says: "It's your funeral, not mine! I'm STILL staying!" Sandy says: "And I'M building a raft! You two can stay on this island until heck freezes over, but I'M getting off this deathtrap!" Otto says: "That does it! We're splitting up! From now on it's every camper for themselves!" Sandy says: "That's fine with me! To the victor, goes the spoils!" Lil says: "You're both crazy, and insane! I wouldn't follow EITHER of you! From now on, I'm following MY heart!" (Confessional) Lil says: "Can I just say that it felt GREAT when I told Otto and Sandy how I truly felt about the whole situation when it was happening? The two of them both think that they can solve EVERY single problem just by having an angry attitude about everything! But Lil Deville knows THAT kind of solution doesn't solve anything at all! And I wasn't angry at them, just the way they were acting! Besides, my concerns for Stimpy were more important than anger! I just HAD to find him!" / Sandy says: "The truly great geniuses ALWAYS have to work alone!" (End Confessional) / Stimpy continues his trek through the trees of the island, being careful to keep out of sight of the big animals. Stimpy says: "I've gone on several jungle safaris with Ren, but this has got to be more strange than ANY other journey I've ever been on! It's a good thing that compared to these beasts, I'm so small. I can slip right through them and not get--." But before Stimpy can finish his thought, a giant bird swoops down from the sky and catches Stimpy in its talons! Stimpy shouts: "Help! Let me go, you big bird!" (Confessional) Stimpy says: "Definition of irony? Just look at me! Here I am, a red-furred cat, who sometimes likes to eat birds when they're cooked. And there I was, the prey of a bird that wanted to eat ME! Cats may have 9 lives, but luckily, I knew of a way to escape with all 9 of my lives intact!" (End Confessional) Stimpy says: "Large carnivore, you've FORCED me to resort to this!" And Stimpy hocks a giant hairball out of his mouth to blind the bird! The bird, flying high in the sky, suddenly drops Stimpy as he's hurtling through the ground! (Confessional) Stimpy says: "In hindsight, blinding the bird and having it drop me was probably NOT the best plan in the world. I was SO scared! I was SURE that I was going to die for the 1st time in my life!" / Stimpy's son, Stinky, is currently inside the Confessional. Stinky says: "This building may have stopped moving, but I'm too scared to go outside by myself when I'm lost. Well, since I'm lost, I suppose it's a good advice to stay where you are, until someone finds you. But who's going to think of looking for me here?" A familiar voice screams: "AHHH!!!!" And a body crashes through the Confessional Building, cutting off the Confessional Camera! (End Confessional) The door is opened by the force of Stimpy's impact, and Stinky is floating in the air, looking down with concern. Stinky says: "Sir, are you all right?" But Stimpy doesn't respond. Stinky says: "Sir, you've got to say something! You need to get up!" But Stimpy is still unconscious. Stinky says: "I can't survive alone! Please, you've got to take me home! I DON'T even know my father!" Stimpy finally stirs and says: "It's a good thing this building was here to break my fall. What's stinky?" Stinky says: "You KNOW my name?" Stimpy becomes more aware and says: "Who's there?"
Stinky says: "Someone who cares for you." Stimpy gets up and gives Stinky a warm embrace! Stimpy joyously yells: "Stinky! My son! It's you! It's really you, you're real! I knew you were, I just knew you were! I've been searching so long for you! I didn't know that were just staying in here the whole time!" Stinky says: "It's all right, dad. Everything's going to be fine. Now that we're back together, nothing will EVER separate us!" Then they both hear a loud, simultaneous meow and howl! It's Catdog, but they're giant! Stimpy says: "Don't speak so soon, my son! First we have to get out of here!" Stinky asks: "But how?" Stimpy says: "Get inside my left ear, it's not as sensitive, I'll get us both to safety!" (Confessional) Stinky says: "I just knew my dad was a great, smart man! I didn't know he was a cat, but that doesn't matter! Getting to know your father is one of the best feelings in the world, and I must say I love Stimpy for everything that he is! He makes me proud to be his son!" (End Confessional) Stimpy is running through the jungle, unaware that there's someone else exploring. Lil says: "There are WAY too many different smells in this place! How am I supposed to find Stimpy if I can't tell the scents apart?" And Stimpy LITERALLY runs into Lil! Stimpy says: "Sorry about that, Lil! (Does a double-take) Lil?! What are YOU doing out here?!" Lil says: "I was looking for you! What else do you think I would be doing?!" Stimpy says: "You mean to tell me that you don't CARE if Otto and Sandy think that you're uncool?" Lil says: "I'd rather do the right thing, even if its not the cool thing, by searching for you AND your son!" Stimpy says: "Then it's a good thing I bumped into you!" Lil asks: "Can you tell me what THAT metaphor means?" Stimpy says: "Nevermind the metaphor, Lil. I'd like to introduce you to MY son, Stinky!" And Stinky comes out of hiding from Stimpy's left ear. Stinky says: "Hi, ma'am." Lil's jaw LITERALLY drops to the ground via a Tex Avery gag, and Lil says: "I can't believe it. (Pulls her jaw back up) Your son really DOES exist!" Stimpy says: "Don't tell me that YOU thought that Stinky wasn't real as well as Sandy and Otto!" Lil says: "Well, maybe 5% of me thought that the story MIGHT have been fabricated! Say, if you're Stinky's father, Stimpy, than who is his mother?" Stimpy asks: "Mother?"
Lil says: "Certainly. All children have mothers, and all children have fathers, unless they're clownfish in which case they live their lives first as a male, than as a female!" Stimpy says: "But Stinky is my personal pride and joy! I don't know what in the world Stinky would think if I was to have someone else who could be a--." Stinky interrupts and asks: "Lil, would YOU like to be my mother?" Lil says: "Oh, my GOSH! Is your son asking me what I think he's asking me?" Stimpy says: "Son, that's crazy! Why are you asking someone you barely know to be your mother?" Stinky says: "For one thing, she was nice and generous enough to come looking for you. Anybody who's that caring has definitely got to have some good motherly qualities to them." Stimpy says: "Son, that's truly SMART of you!" Stinky says: "I got it from you, dad!" Lil says: "Stinky DEFINITELY has your eyes, Stimpy! And it's weird, but his smile looks VERY similar to mine, and I LIKE my smile! I'd be PROUD to be able to call him my son!" Stimpy says: "Wow! I'm already a husband AND a parent, and I'm not even married yet!" Lil says: "You definitely WILL be in 2 more years!" Stimpy says: "We make the best couple ever!" Stinky says: "This love is good and all, but it's not going to help us get away from this unfamiliar place." Stimpy says: "He's right, Lil. We need to find Sandy and Otto. Where are they?" Lil says: "Sandy was building a raft and Otto was staying in one of the cabins that washed up on this island." Stimpy says: "Than we've got to hurry! If we're lucky, they might still be alive in one piece by the time we get there! Get inside my left ear, son!" Stinky goes back and holds on tight inside Stimpy's left ear! Stinky says: "I'm good, dad!" Lil says: "Than let's go!" / Sandy is busy putting the final touches on the raft. Sandy says: "Working with wood is a lot harder than I thought it would be. To think that it took me 3 long hours to put it together! Those Angry Beavers make it looks so EASY! I sure wish one of them was with me right now!" Otto walks up and says: "And why wouldn't you wish that you had ME around instead?" Sandy says: "Otto?! Why don't you go back inside your cabin and wait like you said that you were going to?!" Otto says: "Listen, spiders and me do NOT mix! I'm not a big fan of rafting, but I hate being poisoned even more! I've been out scouting, and I have something that might interest you." Sandy says: "Oh, really? And what would that be?" Otto reaches into his pocket and pulls out something big! Otto says: "One giant egg to provide us enough nutrition and energy to get us back to camp!" (Confessional) Sandy says: "I totally did NOT want to accept ANY kind of gift from Otto, but I had to look at the big picture. If I had Otto helping me, he could help me row us back to camp at a much faster rate than I could if I went alone. Besides, I wanted to put this challenge behind me." (End Confessional) Sandy says: "All right, Otto. You can help. Just grab a stick and help me paddle!" Stimpy and Lil come running towards them and say: "Don't leave without us!" Otto sarcastically says: "Wow, Stimpy. You actually managed to last longer than 28 minutes. Looks like Sandy was the closest in guessing how long you would last." Lil says: "You might want to stop being sarcastic, because Stimpy has proof!" Sandy says: "Proof that the Loch Ness Monster IS a total fraud like I've always said?!" Lil says: "Even better!" And Stinky comes out of Stimpy's left ear and says: "I am Stimpy's son, Stimpy's my father, Lil has agreed to be my mother, and my name is Stinky J. Cat!" Sandy is flabbergasted and says: "This is unprecedented! Just think of the scientific doors that will be opened because of this! I've heard and seen a LOT of strange things, but this is the first time I've ever encountered ANYONE who had a father give birth to them!" Stimpy says: "Stinky is NOT a science project! He's my loving son and I demand that he be treated as such!" Otto says: "I don't CARE what he is! It's all his fault for causing us to be LOST!" Lil says: "That's a lie and you know it! You're just angry that Stimpy was right!" Sandy says: "Yeah, Otto. Why don't you just admit you were wrong?" Otto says: "Because I don't think--." Lil and Sandy both say: "OTTO!!!!" Otto says: "Ok, ok! I was Wr--wr--wr--." But just then a helicopter flies overhead! Sniz says: "There they are, Fondue! I told you I'd find them! Campers! Don't worry! The Fairy Godparents have wished up a boat for you! It's going to take you back to the restored camp in just a few short hours! And the animals have also been shrunk down to their normal size! The survival challenge is over!" Sandy says: "So this WAS a challenge!" Otto says: "Wait a minute! Why can't we just ride back with you?" Sniz says: "Because this helicopter only holds me and Fondue! Have a fun 3 hours!" / Back at the restored camp, the 4 campers and Stinky are all freshened up, sitting around the bonfire. Sniz says: "That was quite the adventure you had today. I'm glad to see that you're all in one piece." Otto says: "No thanks to you!" Sniz says: "And by the way, splitting up? MAJOR decision disaster! 4 heads are ALWAYS better than one!" Lil says: "Don't you mean FIVE heads? Stinky has feelings to!" Sniz says: "Which brings us to this night's bonfire ceremony." Otto says: "Wait a minute! There are FOUR marshmallows on the plate! That's one for EACH of us!" Sniz says in a singing voice: "Well not, exactly! There's one for Stimpy, one for Otto, one for Sandy, and one for Lil!" Lil says: "Wait! You don't mean that--!" Sniz says: "Stinky is eliminated!" Lil yells: "NO! That's totally UNFAIR! You can't go through with it!" Otto says: "And why can't he?" Lil says: "Stimpy has been through SO much trauma looking for his son, and Stinky worried so much until his father found him! When a father finally DOES find his son after worrying and trauma, the last thing they want to have happen is to be separated! And as Stinky's chosen mother, I can't bear to see that happen!" Stimpy says: "Sniz, does Stinky really have to go?" Sniz says: "I'm afraid so. He got 3 votes, one of them by Stinky for himself." Stimpy says: "Stinky, what are you thinking?! Why would you want to vote yourself off?!" Stinky says: "I'll tell you why, father. You proved to me that you were willing to sacrifice your life for me. Nobody else has ever done that for me before. So in return, I want you to focus on this game show and give it 100%. And I know that you can't do that if you have to worry about me. That's the gift I'm giving to you, the gift of incentive." Stimpy says: "You're giving me incentive?" Stinky says: "You have a real reason to want to win $150,000 now. If not for yourself, than I want you to win for me! Win for the girl who loves you!" Stimpy says: "This incentive business feels SO incredible! This might be the best gift that anyone has ever given me! But are you sure that you're going to be ok?" Stinky says: "I'm going to be with good people. I'll see the other campers, the former contestants, even your best friend Ren. They'll all take care of me until this contest is over. I just want to thank you, for always believing in me."
Stimpy gives his son one more hug and says: "No problem, Stinky. That's what dad's are supposed to do, and that's what I ALWAYS do!" And with that, Stinky floats over to the Boat of Losers, sits down, and the Boat sails away. Sniz says: "The rest of you are safe, for tonight." (Confessional) Otto says: "I can't believe that something as simple as a child could give Stimpy incentive! He's going to be super-competitive now! This game might be harder to win than I thought it would be." (End confessional) / Episode Notes: A running gag in this episode is that whenever anybody uses a metaphor around Lil, she doesn't understand what it means. Various characters from "Catdog" make a cameo appearance in this episode. Stimpy's son, Stinky J. Cat, is born in this episode and is technically voted off. Enough said!
