The men and boys of town become metrosexual in response to a fad show, becoming attracte. Kyle, Mr. Slave, and Mr. Garrison try to stop the wave of metrosexuality; Kyle is treated like an outcast, while Mr. Garrison believes the fad undermines real homosexuals.
Cartman, Tolkien, and Butters form a Christian rock band called "Faith +1" so that Cartman can win a bet against Kyle for $10. Stan, Kyle, and Kenny (who have their own rock band named "Moop") independently protest against illegal music downloads after getting arrested for doing such.
Kyle does not invite Cartman to Casa Bonita for his birthday, so Cartman tries to get rid of Butters (who was going to the party rather than him) and changes his attitude to fill in his place.
Stan becomes a Goth after Wendy breaks up with him. Meanwhile, Butters falls for Lexus, a waitress at a Hooters-esque restaurant for kids called "Raisins".
