Overview

  • The return episode advances the ongoing arc involving President Donald Trump, Satan and an impending Antichrist without resolving the central conflict.
  • Peter Thiel is introduced as a self-styled Antichrist expert who zeroes in on Eric Cartman after a schoolwide fixation on a viral '6-7' trend.
  • The TikTok-born '6-7' chant becomes a classroom phenomenon that alarms faculty and drives the satire’s school storyline.
  • The chapter closes on a cliffhanger that sets up Cartman’s role in the larger plot without revealing key outcomes.
  • Comedy Central confirmed the network is treating this as Season 28 Episode 1, offered no reason for ending Season 27 after five episodes, and set air dates for Oct. 29, Nov. 12, Nov. 26 and Dec. 10 with next‑day streaming on Paramount+.
