South Park, Season 24

[Stan and Randy arrive at the burning ruins of Tegridy Farms]

Randy:
This was once such a magical place.

Stan:
Can we just get this over with? I don't want to be here.

Randy:
You think I want to be here? This is where I lost everything that I cared about. And your mom and your sister!

Stan:
Dad, there's nothing here. Dad?

Randy:
I think I can trust you now, Stan. It's time for you to learn what your friend Kenny was after. When the pandemic started, you were only a kid. You don't remember the pain we all went through.

Stan:
Yeah, I do.

Randy:
We as Americans went through so much. First, that incompetent jack-hole was elected president. Then the pandemic came, and then the race wars. And then, just when it seemed like we'd turned a corner, Space Jam 2 came out, and we all just kind of gave up. What we lost, Stan, was our Tegridy. But it was all by design. They needed us to lose it.

Stan:
Who did?

Randy:
Who would want us to lose our optimism and start fighting with each other? China.

Stan:
China?

Randy:
China. They're the superpower now. The future is totally theirs and we let it happen. A man in china had sex with a pangolin and that started COVID. That man was me. So I knew how to go back and stop them from taking over…

Stan:
Wait, whoa, whoa, wait, wait. You started COVID?!

Randy:
Yes, but that's besides the point. China used me like they used us all. So I came up with a way to help everyone fight back. A special Tegridy weed.

Stan:
You had sex with a pangolin in China and started the whole pandemic?!

Randy:
Will you listen to what I'm saying?! Gal! I worked to create more Tegridy but China did everything they could to stop me. They even got to my son. Who burned all of Tegridy Farms to the ground. But what you didn't even know was that I had secretly created a new strain of weed. A weed so powerful, I couldn't even call it a special. It was more like an event. I hid it away all these years. And now it… is the key to saving us all.
