You're tuned to the good stuff
The Ghost of Jeffrey Epstein
The setup
The premise
Here’s the bit.
Back from a whirlwind China trip, President Trump dismisses JD Vance and dozes off on a gold bar, only to be woken by the shackled, ragged ghost of Jeffrey Epstein. The two reminisce like old friends before the ghost, in the manner of A Christmas Carol, offers visions of the future: Kristi Noem hawking a vacuum cleaner on a shopping channel, and Pete Hegseth and Kash Patel running a boozy podcast stuffed with ridiculous sponsor reads. The ghost reminds Trump that, whatever he does, the public will always link the two of them, and the pair close the cold open with a duet before the show's opening line.

Highly quotable.
In case you're curious, like all ghosts, I have the power to show you visions of the future.
Wow! I'm surprised there is one.

A little extra
Notes from the archive.
The cold open of the Season 51 finale, hosted by Will Ferrell. Aziz Ansari made a surprise cameo as Kash Patel, and the sketch ends with Epstein's ghost and Trump singing "Just the Two of Us" together.
The rabbit hole continues
One more couldn’t hurt.
