Former “Saturday Night Live” repertory player and writer Bowen Yang returned to help open the show this weekend with his portrayal of former Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang.

In the cold open, the nation’s most-prominent tech-industry CEOs, including Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg, are at a CIA gathering devised to teach them how to identify when a woman may be duping them.

“America needs you to learn the difference between a woman who would actually want to have sex with you and a woman who is clearly a spy,” said a CIA guide, portrayed by comedian John Mulaney, the night’s host.

Mulaney, a former “SNL” writer, used the story of Huang, who resigned from Nvidia on Thursday following reports that he had extramarital relationships, including one with a suspected spy for China.

Zuckerberg, portrayed by Andrew Dismukes, answered: “Never date a human woman.”

Mulaney dismissed the response and that of a few of the other tech titans in the room, prompting PayPal cofounder Peter Thiel, portrayed by James Austin Johnson, to defend the group.

“Show us some respect,” he said. “We do a lot for this country. Name one time technology has let us down.”

Mulaney answered by mentioning Friday’s nationwide flight ground stop and Thursday’s global Microsoft glitch.

He tried to empathize, however, noting that it’s a rare time in human history when men “as pale and as strange as you” even survive, let alone possess “all the world’s wealth and power.”
