- In* South Park*'s latest episode, Stan says, "South Park sucks now, and it's because of all this political s---."

- The ep also shows the president's wife, Melania Trump — whom he does not recognize — haunting the White House.

- Pam Bondi holds a seance after filing charges against paranormal investigators for "falsifying information" about the president's "rectoplasm."

*South Park* dropped a new episode on Halloween night, getting addressing criticism of its own focus on politics but continuing to lampoon Donald Trump and his allies.

The second episode of season 28, titled "The Woman in the Hat," sees Stan move into his grandfather's nursing home since his father has lost his job in the government shutdown. Fed up with his circumstances, he turns to making broad, sweeping critiques of his hometown and, in a big meta wink, the show itself.

"How many weeks has it been now dealing with one stupid thing after another?" he asks his friends. "The truth is, I think a lot of people are just afraid to admit that South Park sucks now."

Poking fun at viewers who don't want the show to address contemporary politics, Stan continues, "South Park sucks now, and it's because of all this political s---. We're just getting totally bogged down in it. Remember when *we* used to do stuff? Just us guys? Ever since all this political crap took over, it's like, 'What happened to us?'"

Stan's unhappiness leads him to start a "South Park Sucks Now" movement online, which quickly racks up hundreds of thousands of supporters and prompts him to launch a cryptocurrency meme coin that he and his buddies plan to "pump and dump" to maximize their profits.

As all of Stan's antics unfold, the episode intercuts with a continuation of the show's Trump subplot, which left off with the president expecting a child with his pregnant lover, Satan.

Trump and his giant red bae stand in the wreckage of the White House's East Wing, which, as in real life, is being demolished to make way for a ballroom. Satan expresses his disappointment that the construction project isn't for a nursery for their forthcoming child, as the president supposedly promised.

Advisor Stephen Miller — depicted as a Nosferatu-esque creep — says demolishing the East Wing may have "unleashed some sort of wrath" on Trump and his allies. In the next Trump scene, the president tells his allies about "this thing that keeps appearing," which turns out to be the specter of his wife, Melania Trump, who is sporting a wide-brimmed purple hat obscuring her face akin to the one she wore on her trip to the U.K.

Trump seemed not to recognize his wife. "What does it want?" he asks incredulously after advisors identify the presence as Melania.

Attorney General Pam Bondi also continues to appear throughout the episode with increasingly large brown stains on her nose, suggesting she's, uh, extremely loyal to the president. The mess on Bondi's face is later dubbed "rectoplasm" by paranormal investigators who have arrived to evaluate the ghostly presence. They say their tests have revealed that the substance contains McDonald's, Taco Bell, and the president's semen.

Bond indicts the paranormal investigators on federal charges of falsifying data in order to "make fake news." She then goes on to lead a seance to communicate with the mysterious spirit (nobody seems to remember it's Melania) that is attended by a reluctant Kyle Schwartz — Kyle Broflovski's cousin, whom the South Park gang called on to assist them with their crypto scheme and lobby the White House for approval.

At the seance, Bondi announces (perhaps while possessed by a spirit?) that Vice President J.D. Vance is full of "deception" — a reference to his underlying plot with Peter Thiel to stop Satan from birthing Trump's offspring.

Kyle Schwartz, unaware of the dynamics at play, thinks *he's* being accused of deception, and so he comes clean. "It's all true," he says." We've been dealing in deception and lies. We've all been getting filthy rich off of crypto. Oh, Jesus. We've lied and we've cheated. Crypto's just a giant money-laundering scheme for the rich to get richer."

Kyle Schwartz is then indicted after Bondi files charges against him, saying, "We will continue to indict anyone who says bad stuff about our amazing president."

After the failure of the crypto scheme, the episode concludes with Stan saying remorsefully, "There's no really going back to the way things used to be."

Kyle Broflovski disagrees, perhaps to offer some assurance to *South Park*'s apolitical viewers. "Things will get back, Stan," he says. "I know it's hard to see right now, but things will go back to normal. And in the meantime, we just have to make the most of where we are."

Representatives for the White House, the Justice Department, and Melania Trump did not immediately respond to **'s request for comment.

*South Park* is scheduled to return Nov. 12 on Comedy Central and stream Nov. 13 on Paramount+.
