A blurb for the second episode of the long-running hit Comedy Central animated series' 28th season suggests that in the show's fictional universe, President Donald Trump may face some immediate repercussions for the abrupt and much-derided White House remodel. Creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone must have worked some long hours this week to spoof the destruction of the East Wing of the White House, which occurred on Trump's orders later last week to make way for a large capacity ballroom on the property. Friday's episode is titled "The Woman in the Hat," and the premise was "The White House deals with a disruptive spirit from the east wing; Stan worries that South Park has become too political." Related Stories News The White House and Hollywood's Ongoing Renovations of Power News Sean "Diddy" Combs' Prison Release Date Revealed as Pardon Hope Slips Away In the Oct. 15 episode, the series' most recent entry and latest season's premiere, the South Park version of investor Peter Thiel was introduced, as he arrived in the Colorado town to tell the school that the end of days is coming in six to seven days, as predicted by Revelation 6:7. This inexplicably delighted the South Park Elementary students, who have been caught up in the TikTok-born fad phrase that's sweeping across the nation's schools. Thiel suspects the school to be a Satanic cult and the "6, 7" phrase to be some sort of evil numerology. The "6, 7" fad was hitting Eric Cartman hard, and soon enough, he was cracking up at the in-joke so hard he began channeling Linda Blair's Exorcist heroine with the level of vomit spewed. A home visit led Thiel to haul South Park's anti-hero to Washington, D.C., which is where the episode left that storyline. As this was all unfolding in the small Colorado town, far away in D.C., Satan and Trump were spending the season 28 premiere preparing for their baby's arrival (well, one is. The other is gunning for a miscarriage). That bundle of joy would be the Antichrist, an entity Thiel knows all about and, along with the South Park version of Vice President J.D. Vance, is hellbent on stopping - though their motives may not be aligned. Will Cartman make it to the nation's capital? Will the Antichrist be born into the South Park universe? Will the "6, 7" fab just die already? Tune in on Friday to possibly find out. After the special Halloween episode on Friday, additional new episodes will move back to Wednesdays, on Nov. 12, Nov. 26 and Dec. 10 - though as with this week and these latest seasons, that's always subject to change. New episodes air on Comedy Central and then can be streamed the following day on Paramount+ and other platforms.
