Synopsis
When Cartman makes a bet with Stan and Kyle that the South does win the American Civil War, he is forced to try and change the re-enactment of the war.
Plot
Stan, Kyle, Cartman and Kenny are practicing their Civil War band march until Cartman says "Screw you guys I'm going home!".
At the re-enactment of the Battle of Tamarack Hill, Cartman makes a bet with Stan and Kyle that South will win the war. If South wins, Stan and Kyle are Cartman's slaves; but if South loses, Cartman is Stan and Kyle's slave. He ruins the re-enactment several times.
Later on, he tells Jimbo that South should win so that the South side in the re-enactment will not be teased for "losing" as they are every year. The men are all drunk from the S'more Schnapps beer sponsoring the event and agree to this.
After heading out of town, they capture more and more areas and grow in number. They also raid the towns for beer. Kenny is killed on the way however, to which Cartman informs Mrs. McCormick by mail.
Stan, Kyle and Grandpa Marsh then realize they need to stop Cartman from ruining history. They suggest that the men are drunk, and will return to town when they recover.
When the men realize what they've been doing, they decided to head back to South Park. Then, a truck shows up carrying more beer and a S'more Schnapps girl and the men become drunk once more.
With no other options left, Stan and Kyle take on the role of Jefferson Davis and Abraham Lincoln in front of the White House and manage to end the "war" with South "surrendering". The men respect this act and return to South Park. Stan and Kyle then tell Cartman he's their slave; President Clinton however, tells them that now South have surrendered, slavery is abolished.
