Added DiffLines:

* BlatantLies: Cartman has definitely discriminated against Kyle's Jewish heritage more than once, contrary to his statement.
-->'''Cartman:''' Okay, except maybe that ''one'' time.
* FullyAutomaticClipShow: Cartman questions when he's ever ripped on Kyle for being Jewish, which is followed by a solid minute of clips from previous episodes of Cartman doing just that.
* IdiotBall: Kyle gets a good grasp on it in this episode: After lunch, Cartman talks to Kyle, saying that he was sorry for all the past abuse he had inflicted upon him and saying that he hoped they could still be friends despite the predicament. Kyle, touched and knowing how much Cartman wanted to go to Casa Bonita, says that, if Butters is for some reason unable to go, Cartman can take his place. This, of course, was Cartman's whole plan to get invited, and he begins working to get rid of Butters.
