Yes, they did think about starting the next episode with Garrison finishing the sentence. No, it wasn't going to be a setup for the whole episode. Commentary here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cHX_SFmrSYo

Hm... I could've sworn there'd been a sequel of sorts to this episode in the works that got canned. They never made a sequel to Marjorine (another scrapped beta plan).

Would any of you happen to know if there were any episodes or premises planned for Season 5 that just never got made?

"Marjorine" wasn't a scrapped beta plan, either, though perhaps it should have been. Once again, commentary here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z6uoWo3i-60 They say that they should have made two episodes out of the ideas in "Marjorine," and later really wished they had because they tend to run out of ideas at the end of the run.


I seriously doubt it. See above about running out of ideas. It could be there were suggestions that never made it out of the writers room, but odds are we'll never know what those were.
Full-on scrapping of episodes is almost unheard of because they have pretty much no lead time and make most episodes in six days. (I say most because they will at times try to "bank" an episode early in the run so they can take a couple days off, so those episodes have some lead time, but those are sometimes the least popular episodes in a run. "Pip" is a prime example of this, and they don't make a habit of banking shows as much anymore.) According to the commentaries, the one time they actually scrapped a whole idea the result was "Million Little Fibers."

Mr Garrison at the end, Jesus Christ, I never laughed so hard in my entire life. Thanks South Park <33 Cartman > Mr Garrison > Butters. Best chars
