OMG, if my eyes were closed and didn't know it was Maya, I might actually think Kamala was speaking. The pacing, inflection, and diction are perfection. along with the affectations with her face and hands. Well done, Maya!

[@scarscar7616]

@@drews9481 I thought it was Tim at first!

[@canaisyoung3601]

I didn't know who was going to play him, since no one in the cast seemed like they'd be perfect for the role. And Jim Gaffigan seems like one of those comedians who should have been on SNL (as either a writer or cast member) ages ago (like, the mid-to-late 1990s when Will Ferrell and Darrell Hammond were on there). Maybe he was one of those conedians who tried out for or was offered a chance to be on SNL and didn't make it or turned down the offer.
