AI couldn’t make the November 12 episode of South Park. This week, the animated comedy took on Sora, OpenAI’s video-creation tool, and somehow managed to work in a new twist in the Donald Trump and Satan romance: a love triangle. J.D. Vance is pulling Trump away from his partner, despite Satan’s butt pregnancy.
The episode begins with Butters using Sora to make revenge videos of his ex-girlfriend, Red McArthur, getting “pissed on by Santa.” Red retaliates by making a video of Butters having sex with Totoro (from My Neighbor Totoro) and playing the video at school assembly. Detective Harris, who doesn’t fully understand “Sora,” comes looking for Totoro, who he believes is actually molesting kids. But the South Park Elementary children continue to make gross videos of each other, leading Detective Harris down wackier and wackier paths, attempting to find his animated foes.
Meanwhile, Cartman is being held in a hotel room by Peter Thiel, who kidnapped him during the “Six-Seven” episode because he believed Cartman was possessed (why else would he be laughing so hard at that meme?) and could help stop Satan’s butt baby, a.k.a. the Anti-Christ. Thiel is sending AI videos to Cartman’s mom in which Cartman tells her that everything is okay and he’s doing well, which she takes at face value.
Co-conspirator Vance is also hard at work at the White House and tells Trump to get rid of his own baby because he won’t actually want to deal with it. Trump agrees. In the heat of the moment, Vance and Trump consummate their relationship on Trump’s bed with Satan in a NSF-anywhere scene.
In South Park, the detective brings the kids to court to try to catch the animated predators. He then traces the IP address on the videos “Cartman” sent his mother and goes to arrest Thiel. There, on Thiel’s laptop, he finds security footage of Vance and Trump hooking up and leaks it. Satan chooses to believe Trump when he says that the sex tape is just AI. But when Trump leaves their bed, he goes to make out with Vance. What will Satan do?
