00:00Dad! Tom Cruise won't come out of the closet!
00:02It's no secret that the politically aggressive organization founded by science fiction writer L.
00:06Ron Hubbard is a litigious group, though the Scientologists will probably sue us for saying so.
00:12So when South Park made an episode making fun of Tom Cruise and Scientology in 2005,
00:16they weren't taking any chances. The agents of the organization who watched Traps in the
00:20Closet to the end credits were dismayed to find out that, in the place where the names of their
00:24next targets should be, every single person involved in the making of the South Park episode
00:28was credited as either John Smith or Jane Smith, including the show's world-famous pair of creators,
00:34John Smith and John Smith. Though Trey Parker and Matt Stones moved to protect their entire
00:38cast and crew with generic pseudonyms, succeeded in stopping the Church of Scientology from
00:42harassing South Park artists and producers individually, the episode did generate plenty
00:46of controversy for the series, and Comedy Central briefly pulled Traps in the Closet
00:51from the rebroadcast schedule.
