Dead Friend Sketch

The Dead Friend Sketch is a short film Trey Parker and Matt Stone made for Monty Python's Python Night: 30 Years of Monty Python TV anniversary special. The sketch is a parody of Monty Python's "Dead Parrot Sketch", with a deceased Kenny in place of the dead parrot.

In the sketch, Cartman brings Kenny's body back to the Friend Store where Kyle is the merchant. Cartman tries to get a refund for buying a dead friend while Kyle tries to convince him that Kenny isn't dead at all. Some of the lines are direct quotes from the original sketch. At the end, Cartman is picked up by a giant Terry Gilliam, who is then crushed by a giant animated foot in the style of Gilliam's own cartoons.

The segment ends with Parker and Stone revealing that they have kidnapped Gilliam's mother and are holding her for ransom until Gilliam agrees to create a cartoon for South Park.
