‘SNL’ Host Dave Chappelle Plays A Secret Criminal Forced To Evacuate During L.A. Wildfires

deadline.com:

Dave Chappelle not only touched on the L.A. County wildfires during his opening monologue on Saturday Night Live but also spoofed the evacuations by pretending to be a criminal with a whole lot to hide.

In the second skit of the night, Chappelle played a dad whose family (Ego Nwodim and Devon Walker) receives an alert to evacuate because of the impending blaze.

To the surprise of his wife and son, Chappelle’s Reggie starts taking a sledgehammer to the wall to retrieve $500,000 in cash and a counterfeit passport. “What else is hiding in this house, Reggie?” asks Nwodim.

Plenty, it seems: there’s also a gun and a very important thumb drive hidden behind the clock, along with a knife-wielding man (Michael Longfellow) who wants his cash back and a trio of mysterious Frenchies socked away in the cabinet.
