The secret cameo was filmed a month before Reiner’s death and ends with an in memoriam card after anti-Trump jokes.
- Late filmmaker Rob Reiner made a surprise posthumous appearance as George Washington in the July 3 episode of HBO's 'Life, Larry and the Pursuit of Unhappiness,' timed for the nation's 250th anniversary.

- In the sketch, Washington announces he will not seek a third term, prompting Larry David and Jimmy Kimmel to deliver a rant against a hypothetical 'narcissistic' president who refuses to follow the Constitution.
- The episode concluded with an 'In Memoriam Rob Reiner' card, honoring the longtime Democratic activist and vocal critic of Trump whose final role delivered pointed satire.
