Mr. Garrison's class is visited by an educational
mascot, "Petey the Sexual Harassment
Panda", who attempts to teach the kids about
sexual harassment so as to prevent it in school. During the visit,
Stan calls
Cartman an "ass-sucker", and Cartman, "inspired" by the panda's teaching,
sues Stan for sexual harassment, claiming that he's sexually harassed him for the last time;
Kyle's father, Gerald Broflovski, acts as his
lawyer, and Cartman wins half of Stan's possessions. Gerald then decides to encourage Cartman (and later, others) not only to sue each other but also the teachers and the school, leading to chaos throughout the town as he gets rich. Kyle's dad quickly becomes the target of many people's wrath, while he continues to move his family into successively larger homes with his newly gained assets. Soon afterwards the whole town is suing each other and Gerald is taking advantage of this by being a lawyer for them all, getting more and more money from every case. Because everyone is scared of being sued, no one can stand up to Gerald. Because the school board needs to cut costs, Sexual Harassment Panda is fired. He cannot get a new job as a panda
mascot, and refuses to change his costume due to an apparently genuine belief that he's a panda. Thus, he goes to the Island of Misfit Mascots Commune, for mascots whose messages simply make no sense. Many mascots there also seem to believe they are the animals they portray. The boys, however, seeing the negative results of the lawsuits on their school, track Sexual Harassment Panda down and arrive at the Island of Misfit Mascots (where one of the mascots accidentally kills
Kenny); they persuade Sexual Harassment Panda to return to town with a new message. Meanwhile, Gerald is litigating the biggest sexual harassment lawsuit ever,
Everyone vs. Everyone, where he represents
everyone who hires him to take on everyone else (flagrantly disregarding
conflict of interest in the process). The panda arrives back in South Park under a new name, "Petey the Don't Sue People Panda", and delivers a sermon on how people should not sue each other constantly because it does nothing but damage the school system, taking away money from classrooms, schools and themselves, the taxpayers. The people, realizing the sagacity of this statement, angrily cry that they should sue Gerald, who quickly agrees to file no more lawsuits about sexual harassment in schools or anywhere else. In the end, all the sexual harassment suits are dropped and Kyle's dad presumably gets away with millions of dollars. ==Cultural references==
