Notice the “cue card” on Leno’s desk? Does he usually have it there or was it from some other bit?
I’ve never seen him use a talking points “prop” like that.

Yes, Leno does use a card with questions or info on it at other times. He always “knows” the guest’s latest album or movie. But he NEVER rips into guests like this. In fact, the second Leno felt Cruz was coming to the end of a sentence, he sought out that card to hit him again like a prizefighter. Never.

Definitely out of character for Jay, and he didn’t seem to be enjoying it.

That's what I thought.

It's almost as if he had been assimilated by the BORG! :)
