What do Jake Gyllenhaal, hot Chinatown garbage and ferrets have in common? They're all on Inside Amy Schumer and all catfish—sorry, katfish—Amy Schumer on her Comedy Central series.

In the preview of the Thursday, May 26 episode, Schumer plays Amy (duh), a woman so desperate for MTV fame she hopes she's getting catfished by a dude pretending to be Gyllenhaal, so she consults MTV's Katfish (because you can't call it Catfish). Nev Schulman and Max Joseph aren't there per say, but there is somebody playing "the one with the gray hair" and "the one with not." Bonus points if you recognize Paul W. Downs from Broad City.

"I hope it's an overweight lesbian who can't make eye contact," Amy says in the clip below. But nope, it's actually the Oscar nominated actor! It seems Amy met Gyllenhaal in a ferret fanatic chat room and fell for her.

Please note the host's shrinking shirts.

Inside Amy Schumer airs Thursdays, 10 p.m. on Comedy Central.
