‘South Park’ closes Season 28 with a horrifying Jeffrey Epstein twist

Most Christmas specials don’t feature President Donald Trump giving Vice President JD Vance genital warts, Jesus Christ committing domestic violence, and Satan’s mpreg. But then again, most Christmas specials aren’t South Park.

The show’s season 28 finale also doubled as a holiday special, which meant creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone had to wrap up all the well-disjointed Trump criticisms from seasons 27 and 28 in a nice Christmas bow.

The most urgent, South Park was supposed to conclude the story of Satan and Trump’s baby. As the episode begins, Satan is almost ready to decorate the White House for the Antichrist’s imminent arrival. However, when he learns that Trump and Vance have fled to Colorado in order to free Peter Thiel from prison and kill the Antichrist, Satan joins them in South Park to give him his opinion.

What follows is a confrontation between Jesus, Stan and the satanic creatures of the woods. South ParkThe Season 8 Christmas Special takes on Trump, Vance, Peter Thiel, Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth and dirty bag Jesus. Due to Stan’s calls for a Christmas miracle, Jesus recognizes his mistake and abandons his allegiance to Trump.

While this marks a happy ending for one of the most upsetting storylines of season 28 – that of Jesus embracing a conservative, hateful version of Christianity – the same cannot be said for the Antichrist storyline. Here, South Park becomes as dark as possible.

What’s happening to Trump and Satan’s baby South Park?

Satan never gives birth to the Antichrist. Instead, according to an ultrasound, the baby appears to have died by suicide in the womb.

“It appears that at some point, when no one was looking, the baby hung himself and committed suicide,” a doctor told Trump. He then shows her the ultrasound, saying, “I’m afraid you can see everything in the video. The baby got his hands on some sheets. The ultrasound is missing a few minutes, but it’s definitely suicide.”

The death references that of Jeffrey Epstein, who hanged himself with sheets in his cell at the Metropolitan Correctional Center in New York while awaiting trial on federal sex trafficking charges. Just like with ultrasound South ParkFootage from security cameras outside Epstein’s cell the night of his death is missing, leading to theories that Epstein did not kill himself.

Trump celebrates the death of the Antichrist at his Christmas party, dancing around figures like Apple CEO Tim Cook and Attorney General Pam Bondi, who both played roles in South Park Seasons 27 and 28. Satan, for his part, packs all his baby things and leaves the White House. It’s a truly sobering moment in an episode filled with crazy shock value, including Epstein’s dark and horrifying turn.

With that, South Park wishes us a Merry Christmas and caps a two-season run that angered the White House, drew high ratings and managed to combine memes like 6-7 and Labubus with real-world atrocities like the Trump administration’s ICE raids.

South Park is now streaming on Paramount+.
