South Park Spoiler Alert! (The complete plot for this South Park Episode)

As Gerald and Sheila Broflovski leave a movie theater, they talk with some friends and ask if they are parked nearby. The friends reply that they have instead hired a Handicar, a new service owned and operated by Timmy Burch. The Handicar is actually Timmy's motorized wheelchair pulling a wagon behind it, which has been decorated with a table and some chairs. Meanwhile, another South Park resident is riding in a taxi cab driven by an angry Russian driver. The Russian driver complains that taxi service has been declining lately, as he sees Timmy drive by in his Handicar. In another area, a Hummer salesman can get no customers to come to his special "Rocktober" sales event, as nearby pedestrians are instead picked up by Timmy's Handicar.
A group of disabled children are trying to raise funds to go to summer camp, and Timmy is the leading fundraiser due to his Handicar business. But Nathan, along with his sidekick Mimsy (together best known from the episode Crippled Summer), does not want to go to summer camp, and decides to figure out a way to end Handicar. When a concerned group of taxi drivers and the Hummer salesman meet to discuss their declining revenues, Nathan shows up and suggests that they take out Timmy. In the middle of the night, the taxi drivers break into Timmy's bedroom and break Timmy's legs, which fails as Timmy is already handicapped. Nathan calls Timmy and offers to help him expand his business by becoming a Handicar driver himself. Nathan plans to sexually harass the first female passenger he gets in order to shut down Timmy's business. He picks up a female passenger and makes a sexual move toward her, but the passenger turns out to be a transgender male dressed as a woman who gladly accepts Nathan's proposition, and he molests and rapes Nathan in a public restroom. Gerald and Sheila hire a Handicar, but they get a driver who is a regular person. The driver discloses that Timmy has expanded his business to anyone who can get a wheelchair and a "handi-cap" (referring to the hat worn as part of the Handicar driver uniform). Multiple people are now drivers in the Handicar service, as Nathan's plan to expand Timmy's business has backfired on him. Nathan delivers a line that is reminiscient of Matthew McConaughey's celebrity endorsement of Lincoln.
A Tesla Motors event hosted by Elon Musk flops, as the audience only wants to know about Handicar. Musk is met by Nathan and Mimsy, as Nathan suggests that Timmy's business should be proven to be inferior to Tesla, and will thus collapse. Nathan and Musk, who are driving a Tesla electric vehicle, pull up alongside Timmy and challenge Timmy to a race as a fundraising event for the summer camp group. The race escalates as other vehicle groups decide to join in, and a news report announces that this is the return of the Wacky Races, which have been banned due to their senseless brutality. The announcement triggers a run in the supermarket of cereal and milk. Timmy is undecided whether to enter the race, but the other Handicar drivers (who have now been joined by Matthew McConaughey) convince him that it will be best for his fundraising.
The Wacky Races begin to decide the future of transportation. The competitors are: a Lyft car, a Zipcar now driven by Matthew McConaughey, the angry Russian and his taxi, the Hummer salesman in a Hummer, Elon Musk with Nathan in Mimsy in a Tesla D, Canadian actress Neve Campbell driving a pink car powered by queefs (and drawn to resemble the cartoon character Penelope Pitstop), Timmy and his Handicar, a Japanese self-driving car, and finally the Wacky Racers characters of Dick Dastardly and Muttley. Residents of South Park, dressed in pajamas and eating bowls of cereal, watch the live coverage on CNN, as Randy realizes that Dick Dastardly's involvement will most likely result in violence.
The racers must all race to a point where a passenger is waiting to be picked up and then successfully cross the finish line with the passenger to win. During the race, spoofs from the original Wacky Races series are frequently referenced. The Lyft car picks up the passenger first, but the Hummer salesman runs the Lyft off the road and steals the passenger, having her drive the Hummer instead. Elon Musk fires a cannon and destroys the Hummer, but the Russian picks up the passenger in his taxi. As the race nears its end, Dick Dastardly and Muttley cut down a tree, causing multiple cars to crash, but Timmy picks up the passenger and avoids the roadblock. As Nathan, Mimsy, and Elon Musk close in, Nathan attempts to detonate a bomb he has placed on Timmy's car, but a fleet of Handicar drivers run the Tesla off the road. Nathan and Mimsy steal Dick Dastardly's car and pass Timmy, but as Nathan activates the bomb, instead the Zipcar and Matthew McConaughey are blown up, as Mimsy discloses he planted the bomb on the wrong "fake, soft-spoken douchebag that everyone loves". Timmy wins the race.
Timmy sells the rights to Handicar to Elon Musk for $2.3 billion, making the summer camp fundraiser a huge success. Back at home, Nathan asks his mom to listen to him, as he finally tells her directly that he does not want to go to summer camp. However, his mother fakes being unable to understand Nathan, as his parents have already planned a trip to Italy without him.
