In the wake of the surprising news that Bill Hader is going to leave "Saturday Night Live", the comedian is featured in a promo for the show's upcoming episode to be hosted by Ben Affleck. Praising Affleck's movie "Argo", Hader apparently doesn't know that the film is based on true story.

The "SNL" regular even can't differentiate which one is fictional and which one is real in the Best Picture winner of the 85th annual Academy Awards. In another sketch, Hader asks Affleck to make an impression of him.

The May 18 episode will be the season finale of "SNL" and marks the last episode of Hader, who has just announced "a hard decision" to leave the variety series. With Kanye West as a musical guest, the episode will air this Saturday at 11:30/10:30c on NBC.
