Ritalout is a fictional drug that negates the effects of Ritalin, a medication used to treat the symptoms of attention deficit disorder. It was seen in the Season Four episode, "Timmy 2000".

Background[]

In "Timmy 2000", a majority of the children are misdiagnosed with attention deficit disorder and are subsequently prescribed Ritalin. However, the children and various townsfolk quickly become boring and dull enough to want to see a Phil Collins concert. While there, Chef and the doctors put Ritalout in the lemonade that everyone drinks making them normal again.

Trivia[]

  • Ritalout is a joke on the fact that the opposite of 'in' is 'out', so Ritalout should negate the effects of Ritalin.
  • There is one scene in which the letters on the Ritalout bottle are visible, revealing that the drug is actually MDMA, a euphoric empathogen and the primary ingredient in the street drug ecstasy.
