The Chinese Family first appeared in the Season Twelve episode, "The China Probrem".
Background
The Chinese Family was seen dining at P.F. Chang's. Cartman and Butters, who were in stereotypical Chinese costumes, try to talk to them to find out the "Chinese plan". The father of the family, who knew how to speak the English language and that Cartman and Butters were not Chinese, gets annoyed and calls the waitress to have Cartman leave them alone. When the waitress is about to expel the two, Cartman and Butters then keep everyone in the restaurant hostage with Butters holding a gun.
