After seeing "the saddest ad ever available" presented by Sarah McLachlan about a cracked baby, Kyle went to help volunteers at the hospital, but found Cartman already volunteering there. Suspicious, Kyle followed Cartman and discovered that he, Craig, Clyde and Butters had gathered together to form a new business called the "Crack Baby Athletic Association", where they encouraged the addict babies to fight one ball full of cracks. , with fights aired on the Internet. Kyle was shocked and horrified at what Cartman had done, but Cartman assured him that this was a win-win situation for everyone and persuaded him to work for business as his accountant, because of his Jewish descent. Kyle repeatedly justified himself to Stan, who only listened to him in silence.
Businesses are growing fast, and the group is preparing to break the deal with EA Sports for a video game based on their sport. Although Cartman insisted that they were a non-profit organization, Kyle told him that he was uncomfortable with the idea of ââselling babies' likeness to EA Sports while giving them nothing, so Cartman promised to find out how "other companies got away with it." He went to the athletics department at the University of Colorado dressed up as a South planter and referred to a university student athlete as a "slave," but received no advice on how to treat his own "slave" from an insulted president. Kyle came up with a plan to compensate for a cracked baby by spending 30% of the money on a deal at a sophisticated orphanage and passing it to Cartman; astonishingly Kyle, Cartman actually approved the scheme, because of the public goodwill he was about to generate.

However, they discovered that Slash is actually a make-believe character based on a Dutch legend named "Vunter Slaush", and that the various Slash incarnations they encountered were only their parents dressed in costumes. This explains why Slash appears everywhere at once, even playing in Moscow and in Colorado Springs on the same afternoon.
When the deal with EA Sports was signed, the children learned from their contract with Peter Moore (pictured here as bourbon drinking, cigar smoking, southern grower), head of EA Sports, that his company now owns the rights to Crack Baby. The Athletics Association and will keep all revenue. Kyle was destroyed at the end of his orphanage project, while Cartman and others were still largely shaken about the assertion that Slash did not exist.

Kyle was very excited, and everyone's faith in Slash was restored.
