Ep 7. The Poor Kid

In the seventh episode of the first season of South Park: Superheroes, titled "The Poor Kid," the gang discovers that Kenny has been living in poverty and decides to help him out. In typical South Park fashion, their attempts to help end up causing chaos and hilarity.

The episode begins with the boys at school, where they notice that Kenny is smelling particularly bad lately. Upon investigating, they discover that Kenny's family is extremely poor and is struggling to make ends meet. The boys decide to help out by bringing Kenny food and clothing, but their efforts are complicated by Kenny's drunken, abusive father and his irresponsible mother.

As the boys continue to try and help Kenny, they become increasingly involved in his family's drama. Meanwhile, a social worker is sent to investigate the family's living conditions. The boys try to hide the fact that Kenny's family is poor by creating a facade of affluence, but their attempts only make things worse.

As the episode progresses, the boys are forced to confront the harsh realities of poverty, including hunger, homelessness, and domestic abuse. Despite their best efforts, they cannot solve all of Kenny's problems, and he must ultimately face the consequences of his family's situation.

Overall, "The Poor Kid" is a poignant and hilarious episode that highlights the difficulties faced by those living in poverty while also poking fun at well-meaning but often misguided attempts to help. It is a must-watch for anyone who enjoys the irreverent humor and satirical social commentary of South Park.
