Plot
Mrs. Garrison pairs off the kids in her class and assigns them to care for eggs as if they were babies as part of a lesson in parenting responsibility. Stan is worried he will get paired with his ex-girlfriend Wendy, whom he has not spoken to since their breakup. However, Wendy is assigned to Kyle while Stan is paired with Bebe. The assignments cause tension among the students, as Stan starts to suspect Kyle of having his eyes on Wendy while Bebe is angry at Stan's indifference to their egg.
Meanwhile, Mrs. Garrison is reminded of her ex-boyfriend Mr. Slave, who broke up with her after her sex change operation. Garrison attempts to take Mr. Slave back, only to learn that he is now in a relationship with Big Gay Al and that they are going to get married as soon as the governor of Colorado legalizes such unions. Mrs. Garrison, after learning this, becomes mad with jealousy and tries to stop gay marriage.
Garrison rallies a crowd of people to petition against same-sex marriage and, upon realizing the governor won't veto the bill without proof that gays don't have the skills necessary to raise a family, makes plans for the final egg check in front of the governor's office and alters the pairs so that Stan and Kyle are the 'same-sex couple'. However, when it seems that the two are able to raise the egg properly, Garrison hires an assassin named Jakartha to destroy the egg to make sure Stan and Kyle's egg is broken when they present it, which he appears to do.
