I read one of your posts saying you've only recently become a fan of South Park. This would explain why you didn't understand the ending.

Kenny got killed in every South Park episode for the first 5 seasons. Whenever he got killed, Stan would say "Oh my god! They killed Kenny!" and Kyle would usually say "You bastards!"

Then, the next episode, Kenny would reappear, alive, despite having been killed in the previous episode.

Mysterion was revealed to be Kenny, and Kenny reveals that his super-power is immortality (he can't die), which explains the whole running joke. He explains that every time he was "killed," he would wake up in his bed in his orange hood, and nobody would ever remember he died.

At the end of last week's episode, Mysterion (Kenny) was "killed," so he woke up in his bed in the same clothes again, and his friends forgot that he died.

I would also like to note that I don't think any of the comic book style stills with Cartman and Cthulhu actually happened. I think they were just Cartman's fantasies of what he could do. He was just daydreaming as he rode around on Cthulhu's back.

The reason it was "different" is because :it's the first time they actually showed what happens to Kenny right after he dies he wakes up in his bed in the same clothes.

They never showed that in all the other Kenny deaths. That's the whole joke.

A picture I found of the episode. Mintberry Crunch!
