Scene from the new “South Park” episode “Twisted Christian.”
Comedy Central/Paramount+
South Park’s new episode takes aim at the “6-7” meme and billionaire Peter Thiel, plus focuses on the pending birth of President Donald Trump and Satan’s baby and makes Cartman demonically possessed.
The sixth episode of the unusually paced 27th season of Comedy Central’s adult animated series — titled Twisted Christian — debuted on the cable channel Wednesday night after the show’s second consecutive three-week hiatus. The new episode also arrived on streaming on Paramount+ on Thursday morning.
The episode starts in the hallways of South Park Elementary, where students are pulling 6-7 pranks on one another. This is disruptive behavior to PC Principal (PC meaning “Power Christian” now instead of “Politically Correct”), who calls in Thiel to lecture the students about the use of the “Satanic numbers.”
According to The Wall Street Journal (via MSN) the tech investor has been delivering lectures over the past year about the coming of the Antichrist. In trademark South Park style, Thiel is introduced to the students with a showtune-like song that contains the lyrics, “Peter Thiel knows about the Antichrist!”
The introduction leaves the students baffled and silent until Thiel says the Antichrist could arrive in the next “6 to 7” weeks. The students then gleefully respond, “6-7!”
Thiel then goes on to graphically describe how Satan became impregnated with Trump’s baby. Trump and Satan, meanwhile, attend a Lamaze class, but Trump gets into an argument about the lack of sex since the pregnancy. Satan suggests he goes home and … (fill in the blanks).
Back at the White House, Vice President JD Vance delivers Trump the news about how they shut down another abortion clinic. Vance then tells Trump that one clinic remains open, suggesting between the lines how a visit to the doctor could solve his pregnancy problems with Satan.
Back at South Park Elementary, Jesus visits PC Principal in his office and questions why he’s even needed at the school. PC Principal then wants to teach Jesus about modern Christianity and convinces him to go on double dates with him, his wife and school secretary Peggy Rockbottom. Tensions erupt later in the episode and PC Principal and Jesus have a throwdown in the restaurant where the four are having dinner.
‘South Park’ Gives Cartman ‘The Exorcist’ Treatment
Early in the South Park Twisted Christian episode, Cartman begins showing signs that he’s demonically possessed while having dinner with his mom. After a nonsensical rant at the dinner table, Cartman goes into the bathroom and vomits.
The episode then hops back to the Peter Thiel, where the tech investor tells the South Park Elementary administration that “your students appear to be in some kind of cult involving the numbers six and seven” and as such, he needs access to all of the school’s private data to prove his point. Jesus and other staff members object, putting PC Principal on the spot. As such PC Principal angrily responds to one of the staff members by force.
The action then hops back to Cartman getting an MRI scan. When the doctor tells him that “6 to 7″ seconds are left in the procedure, Cartman laughs maniacally and vomits again.
Eventually, the action shifts to Vice President JD Vance and Thiel, who are conspiring to prevent the birth of Donald Trump and Satan’s baby. To do so, though, Thiel tells Vance that he will need access to every government database. Eventually, Thiel pinpoints the source of demonic disruption and takes an Uber to Cartman’s house to the strain of Tubular Bells — aka the theme music of The Exorcist — which adds the lyrics, “Peter Thiel knows about the Antichrist.”
After a visual homage to the legendary horror film that shows Thiel standing in the moonlit fog outside of the home, he enters and attempts to perform an exorcism on Cartman.
When Thiel tells Cartman it took “6 or 7” minutes to arrive at his home, Cartman vomits pea green soup on his face in another gross reference to The Exorcist. When Thiel can’t complete the exorcism, he tells Cartman’s mom that he must take him to Washington, D.C., because he is “the key to saving our country” by unlocking “the secrets he holds. No matter what it takes.” Whether Cartman can prevent the birth of the Antichrist, however, is yet to be seen.
The episode ends with Jesus wandering aimlessly through the streets of South Park — all to the Night Ranger tune Sister Christian — before he takes PC Principal’s advice about how to approach Christianity.
Not surprisingly, Trey Parker and Matt Stone go all out to offend viewers in Twisted Christian, by doing, among other things, mocking Christianity, pressing firmly on the hot button issue of abortion, having PC Principal say gay slurs and using crude language and visuals throughout the episode. All told, Twisted Christian puts a capital C on an already controversial South Park season.
South Park returns with Season 27, Episode 7 on Oct. 29 on Comedy Central and streaming the morning of Oct. 30 on Paramount+.
