During the invasion, Eric Cartman suggests to his friends that they shut down Country Kitchen Buffet in an attempt to render the seniors helpless through starvation. He justifies this plan because in Steamboat Springs, all of the seniors died after the Country Kitchen Buffet over there was shut down. The boys lock down the restaurant in town and the seniors panic when they find it has been closed, and became weak as a result of starvation. The seniors are all arrested and the town is saved.
