The latest episode of "South Park," "Wok is Dead," aired on Sept. 3.
"South Park" has been parodying the Trump administration throughout its 27th season.

"South Park" is back to take on President Donald Trump – and Labubus.

The Comedy Central series returned Sept. 3 with a new episode titled "Wok is Dead," which escalates an ongoing storyline involving Trump being in a romantic relationship with Satan.

In the episode, an early scene shows Trump getting off Air Force One, and Satan follows closely behind him. After a reporter confronts the president on whether he is romantically involved with Satan, he denies it, and Satan chimes in to insist they're "just sort of hanging out." But the press isn't buying it, and one journalist said, "Come on, President Trump. With everything you've been doing, pretty much the whole country thinks you're (having sex with) Satan now."

A news segment subsequently questions Trump's relationship with Satan, and an anchor notes, "The president's been seen less and less with his wife and more often with his new pal." But Trump continues to deny that he and Satan are together, despite plenty of evidence that they are.

Later, Satan confides in Vice President JD Vance that although he is unhappy in his relationship with Trump, he has a secret preventing him from leaving. At the end of the episode, this is revealed to be a pregnancy test showing a positive result.

"Yes, we're together," Satan announces to the world. "We've been together for months, and I want to leave him but I can't because I'm pregnant."

The media is shown celebrating confirmation that they were right about Trump and Satan, while famous Trump supporter Kid Rock emotionally declares he is "so happy" about the news.

The episode also takes on the craze surrounding the Labubu plush toys, and Butters tries to buy one for a girl he likes, only to run into issues because of tariffs imposed by Trump. The toys are later shown to be used as part of a Satanic ritual that summons Trump and Satan.

Every episode of "South Park" Season 27 to date has featured Trump as a recurring character. Though the hit animated series is no stranger to political humor, its parody of Trump and his administration in the new season has been particularly unsparing.

It all started with the Season 27 premiere on July 23, which introduced the idea that Trump was Satan's lover and portrayed him as a thin-skilled bully who threatens to sue anyone who gets on his bad side. The series' depiction of Trump, which involves placing photos of the president on a cartoon body, is virtually identical to the way "South Park" previously parodied Saddam Hussein.

The first episode of Season 27 prompted the White House to hit back. Spokesperson Taylor Rogers told USA TODAY the show "hasn't been relevant for over 20 years and is hanging on by a thread with uninspired ideas in a desperate attempt for attention."

But "South Park" doubled down in the following episode, which featured a sequence set at Mar-a-Lago where Trump was again shown as Satan's lover and Vance appeared as Trump's servant. The episode also mocked Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem and Immigrations and Custom Enforcement. Vance reacted to the parody of himself on X, writing, "Well, I've finally made it."

In the third episode, scenes at the White House showed guests, including Apple CEO Tim Cook and Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg, lining up to meet with Trump so they can inflate his ego by presenting him a gift and assuring him that he is well-endowed. The episode ended with a scene where Trump is again in bed with Satan, who is unhappy with the relationship and wants to leave but determines that "there is no escape from this place."

When will the next episode of 'South Park' air?

"South Park" appears to have settled into a release pattern where new episodes air every other week.

This schedule is set to continue. Comedy Central previously said the next episode of "South Park" Season 27 will air on Wednesday, Sept. 17.
