Editing Raisins (episode) (section)

==Story==

===Description===
When Stan's longtime girlfriend Wendy breaks up with him, he goes into a state of severe depression.  The other boys try to cheer him up by taking him to a restaurant called Raisins, whose wait staff is composed entirely of pre-teen girls dressed in skimpy, Hooters-esque outfits. The visit fails to lift Stan's spirits, but Butters falls in love with a Raisin girl named Lexus.
Meanwhile, Stan tries to patch up his relationship with Wendy.  He first tries having his friends talk to her.  When that doesn't work, he goes to Wendy's friends for help.   Bebe suggests he stand outside her window and play a Peter Gabriel song, but he makes the  ineffective choice of "Shock the Monkey." Even worse, when Wendy comes to the window, she's accompanied by Tolkien.

Stan's mood worsens, and his dark, pain-filled outlook on life lands him in good standing with the school's clique of Goth kids.  Stan joins their group, dressing in black and taking on the alias "Raven."

At the same time, Butters' constant visits to Raisins to see Lexus exhausts his cash supply. His parents are delighted about his new "girlfriend" because it means he isn't gay (his father actually won a bet with his mother over this). They take him to Raisins so they can meet his "girlfriend," only to discover the sad, ugly truth -- she's just flirting with him to get his money. 

Butters doesn't believe it. He stands by Lexus, who finally spells out the true nature of their relationship -- or rather, their lack of one. Crushed, he withdraws from society just like Stan. The Goth kids invite him to join their group, but he declines, saying that even though he's sad, the very fact of his sadness makes him feel alive and vital.  Stan agrees, ditches the Goths and returns to his life. 

The next day he's back to normal -- so back to normal that when Wendy and Tolkien walk by, he calls her a bitch and gives Tolkien the finger.

===What I Learned Today===
"Well yeah, and I'm sad, but at the same time I'm really happy that something could make me feel that sad. It's like it makes me feel alive, you know? It makes me feel human. And the only way I could feel this sad now is if I felt something really good before."
