In a jaw-dropping twist that only South Park could pull off, Donald Trump is on a bizarre mission to exorcise the Antichrist—and it’s not going well. But here’s where it gets controversial: the Antichrist in question? It’s growing inside Satan himself, and Trump, along with Vice President JD Vance and tech billionaire Peter Thiel, is desperate to stop it. Warning: Spoilers ahead!
This week’s episode dives into chaos when PC Principal misinterprets the kids’ obsession with the “6 7” meme as satanic worship. Enter Thiel, who declares himself an expert on biblical prophecy, only to be laughed at by the students. Undeterred, he seizes the school’s private data, convinced South Park Elementary is a hotbed of demonic activity. And this is the part most people miss: Cartman, who’s physically sickened by the meme, becomes Thiel’s target for an exorcism. When that fails, Thiel whisks Cartman to Washington, DC, claiming, “Your son is the key to saving our country. We must unlock his secrets, no matter the cost.”
Meanwhile, Vance has his own agenda—Satan’s baby threatens his presidential ambitions. He strikes a deal with Thiel, promising unrestricted access to everyone’s data if the Antichrist is stopped. Trump, meanwhile, is reluctantly dragged into the scheme, even visiting an abortion clinic in a cringe-worthy scene that hilariously backfires. Bold question: Is this a satirical jab at political desperation, or a commentary on the absurdity of moral panic?
Adding to the chaos is a B-storyline where Jesus goes on a blind date at the Cheesecake Factory, only to clash with PC Principal over their conflicting religious views. While this subplot simmers, the main story sets the stage for explosive episodes later in Season 27. South Park continues to push boundaries, blending dark humor with sharp social commentary.
