Pete Davidson returned to “Saturday Night Live” on Nov. 2 to appear in a rollicking sketch with his good friend and host, John Mulaney.
The sketch was about a person asking to buy milk in the Port Authority Duane Reade, which locals would know as something to avoid. The bit then erupts into a full-cast celebration parodying several showtunes and New York City-centric topics.
The musical numbers began with a “Lion King” parody about the milk from Kenan Thompson and Ego Nwodim; the shampoo being locked up in a “Sound of Music” spoof from Marcello Hernandez and Mulaney; Bowen Yang as a twisted Greyhound bus driver to the tune of “Master of the House” from “Les Miserables”; “All the twinks arriving for the Timothée Chalamet look-alike contest,” fronted by Chloe Fineman’s impression of the actor, singing a version of “Willkommen” from “Cabaret”; mocking mayor Eric Adams’ potentially illegal associations with Turkey, played by Devon Walker to the tune of “Prince Ali” from “Aladdin”; Andy Samberg portraying the bear that Robert F. Kennedy Jr. admitted to killing during his presidential campaign to the tune of the “Hamilton” anthem “Alexander Hamilton”; and a full-cast ending showstopper parodying “We Go Together” from “Grease.”
