Two weeks ago, in the South Park episode “The Woman in the Hat,” Stan, Kyle and Kenny commiserated about how national politics has taken over their town and they simply aren’t getting up to the low-stakes, age-appropriate antics that typified their first ten years in elementary school. In their timely critique of the rise of A.I.-powered video generation tools like Sora 2, Parker and Stone demonstrated how hard it will soon be to differentiate reality from fakery by having Sergeant Yates and the rest of the police force go on a wild goose chase to track down Droopy Dog, Popeye, Yogi Bear, Garfield, the Pink Panther and the rest of the animated pedophiles whose virtual crimes are indistinguishable from real atrocities in the eyes of the cops. Then, in the final act of “Sora Not Sorry,” SPPD's side plot suddenly crashes into the multi-episode arc about billionaire Peter Thiel using Eric Cartman in his quest to prevent Satan and Trump's antichrist butt baby from being born, as Yates and the rest of the squad bust Thiel in a motel room with Cartman and pin the pedophile ring on him.
