Mick Jagger is the spokesperson for the bank who explains the $3 billion trading loss. Al just wants to know where the whale is. Fred Armisen is New York City's Mayor Bloomberg who is on the show to explain how to find a great job in New York. Jason Sudeikis discusses jobs available at Sockeye Seafood Cannery in Alaska.
