Election week left Elizabeth cautiously, nervously, almost suspiciously hopeful — the kind of post-election high she hasn’t felt in years, paired with a very real “don’t fuck this up” energy aimed at everyone involved. Between that emotional whiplash and her kid finally landing back home after five weeks in Europe, this episode slid late, and she’s not sorry about it.
What she did have bandwidth for: movies. She raves about Wildwood, the new Laika stop-motion film, calling it a visual love letter to old Portland and genuinely one of the best things she’s seen in months — with a quick aside daring anyone to clutch their pearls over the PG-13 rating, because the witch in this one is not here to be reasonable.
Then she gets into the main event: You Can See Everything, the Nathan Fielder documentary about the other Elizabeth Holmes (yes, that one) and her fiancé, ahead of her prison sentence. This Elizabeth has zero doubt about the other Elizabeth’s guilt — she did it, she lied — but she’s far more interested in why lying is a prosecutable offense only when a woman does it, while an entire tech and finance industry lies for a living and walks free.
She ain’t losing sleep over which specific rich men lost money.
The documentary, in her read, ends up being less about one woman’s fraud and more a mirror on tech-bro delusion, celebrity obsession, and a culture that’ll accept anything said with enough confidence.
