Origin USA

The episode begins with Cartman directing the other boys through a forest in search of a leprechaun. A skeptical Kyle is there, having made a bet that if Cartman can prove leprechauns exist, Kyle will suck Cartman's balls, but if not, Cartman will owe Kyle $10. To Kyle's shock, they do spot a leprechaun and give chase. They eventually and successfully catch it in a trap. The leprechaun says he was sent to warn of a terrorist attack, and that being chased by the boys has made him late, before vanishing. A triumphant Cartman declares that Kyle must now suck his balls, but Kyle initially refuses, asking why a leprechaun would be warning of a terrorist attack and insisting that there has to be a logical explanation. The next day, as Kyle is conversing with Stan, Kenny, Jimmy and Butters, a strange man suddenly appears, asking them if they have seen the leprechaun. When Kyle argues that leprechauns are just imaginary, the man tells him that just because something is imaginary doesn't mean it is not real. He then invites the boys for a ride in his magical "Imagination Flying Machine" while he serenades them with "The Imagination Song" (consisting simply of the word 'imagination' sung repetitively in various tonal inflection).

On pourra légitimement s'étonner de la parution d'un live du Boss, si peu de temps après son (magnifique) DVD de "réunion" à New-York. D'autant que les anciens fans s'en rappelleront : il a fallu lui tirer les vers du nez, à Bruce, pour qu'il daigne sortir son premier live en 1986 ! La surprise est d'autant plus grande que la setlist, à première vue, a quand même certains points communs avec le live de 2001. D'où vient alors la différence? Elle vient naturellement de "The rising", ce fameux nouvel album enregistré avec tout le E Street Band, le premier depuis 1987. Ce genre de réunion à l'arrachée de vieux line-ups, en général, ce n'est pas toujours pour le meilleur ; mais ici c'est du Boss qu'on parle. Et l'homme sait depuis belle lurette comment bien faire les choses.
