Druski made his Saturday Night Live debut with a sketch that directly mocked the production of the Elizabeth Holmes documentary.

The segment reimagined the origin story of Nathan Fielder and Lance Oppenheim's film, You Can See Everything.

In the fictional timeline presented, Druski was initially hired to direct the project before Fielder and Oppenheim took over.

Jane Wickline portrayed Elizabeth Holmes, while Ben Marshall played Holmes' husband, Billy Evans.

Wickline's character told Druski she wanted the audience to see her as an ordinary person.

Druski rejected the premise, citing the "weirdest, freakiest vibes" he had encountered during filming.

The skit satirized the extreme close-up camera work used in the actual documentary.

It depicted a conversation between the filmmaker and Holmes regarding her intent to deceive the camera.

The show contrasted the three-hour cinematic release of the real film with a fictional 1,000-part Instagram Reels series titled "Crazy White Lady Skit."

Druski appeared in full prosthetic makeup as Elizabeth Holmes during the reenactment portion of the sketch.

A voiceover noted that Druski, like Fielder, used reenactments to understand his subject.

The two characters repeated the phrase "I'm always being real" to one another in a loop until Druski declared he could do it all day and that the character did not scare him. During his cold open monologue, Druski warned the audience he could not promise to avoid whiteface makeup. He stated that the production only restricted cussing and whiteface, noting that those two elements comprised half the show. Emma Stone appeared as a surprise guest during the monologue to promote their upcoming film, The Catch. Druski claimed he was playing Stone's love interest in the movie. Stone corrected him, stating they were not love interests in the script but that his persistent gaze during filming made the concept start to make sense to her. The Universal Pictures rom-com is scheduled for a May 21, 2027 release. Texas senator-elect James Talarico also appeared in the cold open. Talarico called for a change in the show's traditional political cold opens. He turned to James Austin Johnson, who was portraying Donald Trump, and asked how long the current format would continue. Johnson's character responded that it would last infinity.
