Pee/Trivia

Trivia

 * Stan and Kyle wore their winter hats to the park.
 * Another sign of Cartman's racism: he is against Asians, Mexicans, and African-Americans.
 * This is one of few episodes in which Kenny is seen without his parka on (though traditionally, his face is not seen).
 * This episode is based on the movie 2012.
 * It is shown that Cartman believes that we all have until 2012 to live which some think will be end of the world.
 * It also appears that Kurt Russell is one of the firefighters that responds to the Pee Crisis.
 * This episode is ironic for Kyle, as in Summer Sucks, he, Stan and Kenny openly mock Cartman for learning to swim in the public pool, because the first graders pee in the pool. In this episode, however, he is openly horrified at the idea of people peeing in the water, and ends up being forced to drink and then swim in nearly pure pee, while the others (and Cartman) remain unconcerned - probably because he thought only kids pee in pools.
 * Although Stan and Kyle wear their hats, only Stan takes his off (only in the wavepool part).
 * The part where Kyle has to drink three cups of urine so he can swim to the depths without getting squashed by the fluid pressure, is from the movie The Abyss, where the main character has to breath in fluid oxygen so his lungs wouldn't implode.
 * Kenny might have died in the wave pool before the pee incident since he did not respond when Stan talked to him and he was facing the other way not moving at all, although he was not face down yet.

Kenny's Death
Kenny drowns in the pee, making his third and final time (the first 2 being The Ring, and W.T.F) he dies in Season Thirteen. However, the first two times he died near the end of the episode, this time he died early on. This is also the third time he dies unhooded.

Goofs

 * Kyle states he can hold his breath long, but in the tenth season episode Manbearpig he could only hold his breath for about 8-9 seconds(though he was carrying Cartman and had been without food and water).
 * When the scene starts where the boys are in the wave pool, Kenny is wearing goggles, but when Stan starts talking, he is not wearing them.
 * Also in the wave pool, Stan has taken his hat off but later, when climbing the Everest ride to escape the pee meltdown, he has it back on. He had also been wearing it in another pool while Kyle was still unaware of the pee.

Hidden Visitor(s)

 * There's a Visitor at the end of the episode (by an ambulance holding a banana, with swimming trunks and sunglasses).
