South Park Shares Kristi Noem Episode’s Gruesome Alternate Ending

by

South Park – Season 27, Episode 2

In this episode, we encounter a fictional version of the Department of Homeland Security Secretary, named Kristi Noem, who plays a significant role. A particularly harsh and eerie alternate end credits sequence was included in the episode on Paramount+ but was missing from the Comedy Central airing. This dark scene, true to its satirical nature, has also been shared on various social media platforms by the show’s creators.

South Park shares alternate ending for Season 27 Episode 2

South Park recently posted a bonus scene from Episode 2 of Season 27, titled “Got a Nut.” In this scene, the show’s character Kristi Noem is seen entering a place called Pets Galore. As viewers look on through frosted glass, they witness her shooting the animals within. A small dog attempts to flee, but she steps outside and ends its life too.

In my experience, you can catch this particular scene on social media or while watching the episode on Paramount+. Interestingly, when it first aired on Comedy Central, this scene wasn’t included in the episode. At present, I’m unaware as to why this scene was omitted from the television broadcast of the episode. Typically, the show releases new episodes weekly to stay relevant with current social and political events. Given that, it could be possible that by the time the animators completed the scene, it was too late for inclusion in the TV premiere, but it may still be part of the streaming version.

In this episode, both Governor Noem and ICE are subjected to criticism. The depiction shows Governor Noem repeatedly shooting dogs, while ICE is portrayed as conducting a raid on what appears to be heaven, in search of immigrants. Furthermore, the episode seems to mock Governor Noem for suspected cosmetic surgeries she has undergone. (paraphrased from The Independent)

In other words, the repeated depictions of Noem shooting dogs might hint at an incident from her past where she admitted to killing a family pet due to its perceived aggressive behavior and inability to be trained, as detailed in her memoir, according to The Guardian.

The next episode of South Park airs on Comedy Central on August 20, 2025.
