Fey then returned to the screen as a doctor in a maternity ward dispatched to treat parents-to-be whose labor has inexplicably slowed. “I’m sorry to tell you that your baby isn’t shy. He’s pretending to be shy for attention,” she announces, as the infant (Larry Dean) capered about on an ultrasound screen.
“Unless you want your son to become a grown man who is addicted to canceling plans, let me do my goddamned job,” Fey continued, before picking up a megaphone and shouting into the mother’s birth canal. “Honey, are you the diamond from my wedding ring? Because you are fake as hell and we can see right through you, okay?”
A threat to leave the baby behind while the rest head out to karaoke finally gets the labor back on track. Things end with all the sketch’s members dancing to Naughty by Nature’s “Hip Hop Hooray,” which after Jurassic Park is the second 1993-vintage allusion of the night.
And then it was time for Weekend Update, anchored by Ania Magliano and Paddy Young. Up for skewering: influencers with cheap Turkish dental work, the rape allegations against Donald Trump, and—at last—the arrest of the former Prince Andrew. (We should note here that Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor has consistently denied any wrongdoing.)
“Renovations to Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor’s new home, Marsh Farm, have been taking place over the last month, including the installation of Sky TV. So, if you’re watching Andrew, hello!” Magliano said. “You’re not gonna like this next bit. Also, I’m older than I look.”
“Andrew’s new residence, Marsh Farm, is of course named after the nearby marsh where his body will be found,” Magliano continued, before handing things over to Young. “It was reported this week that the police investigation into Andrew is set to widen. The big question now is, if Andrew is charged, found guilty and put in prison, will he be able to keep his mouth shut? I hope not, said his cellmate’s penis.” The audience, which seemed with them until now, reacted uneasily to that last bit. The segment wrapped soon after, without the US-style addition of guests or commentators.
