This episode is so great. The idea of Cartman faking having Tourette's in order to take advantage of people is something that seems like a perfect fit and while it strikes some similarities to the episode where he pretends to be retarded to be in the special olympics, it's a formula that always works so well and it's really funny. The spontaneous words he comes up with are so funny and it's really interesting seeing how everyone else reacts. The story feels like it flows naturally and the scene at the therapy center is really powerful. It's one of the show's most powerful moments next to episodes like The Return of Chef and Kenny Dies. In my opinion, any time the show manages to get a powerful emotion it result a in one of the strongest episodes. And the twist of him actually potentially having it is one I didn't actually see coming and it feels like he's actually getting punishment besides getting yelled at. It feels like he actually learned his lesson and even though you know its going to get reversed by next episode that's okay because the show doesn't follow that type of continuity. It's easily one of the strongest episodes in the first half of the season, next to With Apologies to Jesse Jackson.
