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

The show's Season 28 finale doubled as its holiday special, which meant creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone had to wrap up all of Season 27 and 28's fittingly unhinged Trump critiques in a neat Christmas bow.

Most pressingly, South Park had to conclude the tale of Satan and Trump's baby. As the episode starts, Satan is almost due and busy decorating the White House for the Antichrist's impending arrival. However, when he learns that Trump and Vance have absconded to Colorado in order to free Peter Thiel from jail and kill the Antichrist, Satan joins them in South Park to give him a piece of his mind.

What follows is a showdown where Jesus, Stan, and the Satanic Woodland Critters from South Park's Season 8 Christmas special square off against Trump, Vance, Peter Thiel, Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth, and dirtbag Jesus. Due to Stan's pleas for a Christmas miracle, Jesus recognizes the error of his ways and drops his allegiance to Trump.

While that marks a happy ending for one of Season 28's most upsetting storylines — that of Jesus embracing a conservative, hateful version of Christianity — the same can't be said for the Antichrist storyline. Here, South Park goes as dark as it possibly can.

What happens to Trump and Satan's baby in 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 nobody was watching, the baby hung itself and took its own life," a doctor tells Trump. He then shows him the ultrasound, saying, "I’m afraid you can see it all in the video. The baby got hold of some bedsheets. There are a couple of minutes missing from the ultrasound, but it’s definitely a suicide."

The death is a reference to that of Jeffrey Epstein, who hanged himself with bedsheets in his cell at New York’s Metropolitan Correctional Center while awaiting trial for federal sex trafficking charges. Just like with the ultrasound in South Park, there is missing footage from security cameras outside Epstein's cell on the night of his death, leading to theories that Epstein did not die by suicide.

Trump celebrates the death of the Antichrist at his holiday party, dancing around figures like Apple CEO Tim Cook and Attorney General Pam Bondi, both of whom played roles in South Park Seasons 27 and 28. Satan, for his part, packs up all of his baby supplies and leaves the White House. It's a genuinely sobering moment in an episode packed with madcap shock value, including the darkly horrifying Epstein twist.

With that, South Park wishes us a Merry Christmas and closes out a two-season run that angered the White House, drew ratings highs, 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+.
