Ep 15. The Return of the Fellowship of the Ring to the Two Towers

The show South Park: Year of the Fan season 1 episode 15, titled "The Return of the Fellowship of the Ring to the Two Towers," follows the hilarious and absurd adventures of the boys as they embark on a journey to return a borrowed adult film to its rightful owners.

The episode begins with the boys, Stan, Kyle, Cartman, and Kenny, watching the movie "The Lord of The Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring" at a friend's house. When they leave, they accidentally take a pornographic film named "Backdoor Sluts 9" instead of the Rings movie. As soon as they realize their mistake, they feel compelled to return it to the video store as quickly as possible.

However, things take a wild turn as the boys get lost in the unfamiliar part of town, with only a crude map and their determination leading them through a series of bizarre encounters. Along the way, they run into a group of LARPing (Live Action Role Playing) enthusiasts, who mistake them for their own fantasy characters and join the boys in their journey.

As they continue on their quest, they encounter more unexpected and amusing obstacles, including a creepy hermit who tries to steal their clothes, a dog who gets stuck in the slide at a playground, and a group of knights who mistake them for orcs.

Meanwhile, the boys' parents become increasingly concerned about their children's whereabouts and embark on their own wild pursuit to find them. Their search leads them to a house party, where they join in the festivities and indulge in some rowdy behavior on their own.

As day turns into night, the boys find themselves at the video store, only to discover that it's closed and they're unable to return the tape. Desperate and exhausted, the boys finally decide to watch the movie to pass the time.

What follows is a gut-bustingly funny series of events that includes an epic battle featuring all the characters from the film, including a hilarious portrayal of Gollum. The boys are eventually rescued by their parents, who are horrified to discover their children watching the explicit movie.

In the end, the boys return home, slightly traumatized by their adventure but full of memories that they'll never forget. "The Return of the Fellowship of the Ring to the Two Towers" is a classic episode of South Park that showcases the show's trademark humor, irreverence, and genius storytelling.
