Tim plays and mocks Elissa Slotkin's campaign ad about 9/11, working for the CIA, and her mother's cancer death, riffing on the absurdity of the ad's emotional beats.
- Slotkin's campaign ad: 9/11 triggered her call to public service, leading to CIA recruitment as a Middle East analyst and three tours in Iraq.
- Her mother was diagnosed with stage 4 ovarian cancer and had no health insurance after letting it lapse due to a pre-existing condition.
- Tim's reading shifts to a jarring confession: the candidate admits to killing her own mother with a pillow to prevent her suffering.
