Some info and a short description of this South Park episode on South Park Zone:
This South Park episode pokes fun at the formulaic storyline of some South Park episodes which start with the boys getting themselves in trouble and inciting a controversy between the townsfolk and a national interest group while trying to avoid punishments, subsequently learning a lesson from this conflict.
The South Park town calls in Rob Reiner to combat the spread of smoking among children after the boys are caught doing so.
In the end Stan is relieved that it is all over and that he and his friends learned their lesson, but Kyle flatly disagrees with him in obvious disgust.
South Park Spoiler Alert!

Reiner disguises himself and takes the boys on a tour of Big Tobacco's tobacco factory. The Vice-President teaches them the history of tobacco, and explains that as the dangers of smoking have been made known they placed warning labels on cigarettes so those who choose to smoke or not can make informed choices, which Kyle finds reasonable. Reiner reveals himself after snapping a picture of the boys, and throws one of the employees over the railing to the factory floor before fleeing. Reiner takes the boys back to his anti-smoking encampment and tells them he is going to introduce them to some really "decent and caring" people of his "Anti-Smoking" staff, who are shown to be pale, hunched-over and dressed in black. Reiner intends to Photoshop the photograph in order to falsely depict the executive giving cigarettes to the children. By now Kyle and Stan are disgusted with Reiner and his tactics, so when Reiner offers them the opportunity for them to appear in an anti-smoking TV commercial, they decline, but Cartman eagerly agrees.
Cartman appears in the commercial to claim he is dying of lung cancer from second-hand smoke, but discovers at the end of the shoot that Reiner and his group intend to kill him and claim it was from lung cancer. Cartman flees to his friends, who consider taking him back to the cigarette factory. Kyle again warns that this is following a formula, and will lead to a confrontation between the town and the factory where they will have to admit they lied about why they smoked and talk about what they have learned. However, the group goes to the factory anyway and the townspeople confront them with Reiner. The townspeople turn on Reiner when he tells them his plan, and as he attempts to explain it is okay Kyle goes into a speech (which he briefly breaks almost immediately to comment to Stan, "See? I knew it.") about people needing to take responsibility for their actions, and calls Reiner a fascist for imposing his will on others. Cartman stabs Reiner with a fork, causing his "goo" to leak out and killing him. The parents then ground the four as they know they smoked of their own will, and though Stan is relieved that the ordeal is over and the four have "learned their lesson", Kyle disappointingly replies "No we didn't dude. No we didn't."
