PC Principal and
Wendy host an assembly to introduce students to the Asian art of
yaoi, which has increased due to the influx of Asian students. The pictures shown are all
manga-style drawings of
Tweek and
Craig engaged in
homoerotic and
homosexual activity, and the gang is confused at this. Tweek and Craig are brought in to Principal's office where they both assert that they are not gay, but Principal ignores their denial and tells them that if there is a relationship between them, they must have
affirmative consent.
Stan talks with his father
Randy about his confusion over who "the Asians" arbitrarily decide to portray as
gay in yaoi. Randy, who knows nothing about the topic but is desperate to appear
politically correct, comes to the conclusion that Asians are allowed to decide who is actually gay or not. Meanwhile, Randy is thrilled at the appearance/coming out of the closet of the "
gay couple", citing the
Whole Foods Market in town as part of the reason. At Whole Foods,
Craig's father Thomas is congratulated for Craig being gay, but he is
unwilling to accept this. At Tweek's home, Tweek's parents celebrate and accept his gay status by rewarding him with money. As
Cartman ponders the relationship of Tweek and Craig, he starts fantasizing again about his
Cupid-like alter ego Cupid Me (last seen in "
Cartman Finds Love"). Cupid Me visits Craig in his sleep and shoots him with a love arrow to help with their relationship. Cupid Me then begins to express his homosexual feelings for Cartman, who
rejects him. The next day at school, the growing tension between Tweek and Craig leads to them fighting, but it is dismissed as a lovers' quarrel, and they are given money and dismissed without punishment. When Randy calls
General Secretary of the Chinese Communist Party Xi Jinping to ask for clarifications about yaoi, the
Chinese leader angrily replies that the Japanese, not Chinese, do this and begins ranting about the
rape of Nanking. As Thomas turns to alcohol, Randy tells him that he has no control over whether or not Craig is gay: it is the Japanese who make those decisions and they even got away with "raping
Don King"; at the same time,
Kyle explains to Stan and several other students what yaoi really is: an art form "created by girls for girls" as a perverse way to make men seem attractive. Craig convinces Tweek to announce that they are gay and then stage a fake breakup in order to put the matter to rest. Initially reluctant, Tweek gets carried away with the performance, portraying Craig as a manipulative cheater and himself as the wronged party. Craig becomes massively unpopular, with yaoi artists getting even more inspired by Tweek's
heartbreak and the town's residents becoming severely
depressed. Cartman meets Cupid Me at a
gay bar to ask him for help, and Cupid Me agrees but insists on having a date with Cartman as payment. Tweek apologizes to Craig for making him appear to be manipulative but Craig pushes him away and rejects his idea to pretend to get back together. Thomas becomes willing to accept his son's sexuality thanks to a love arrow shot by Cupid Me, and encourages Craig to be gay and gives him money. Tweek and Craig make amends and begin holding hands together in public and playing games together, bringing joy back to the town. Meanwhile, Cartman has his date with Cupid Me, which involves a massage in his bed. As Cupid Me attempts to molest Cartman, Cartman is revealed to be alone in his bathroom
masturbating, having
hallucinated Cupid Me the entire episode. == Production ==
