It was a big night for Quinta Brunson and her show Abbott Elementary, but the jubilant writer-actress had to share her time on stage with an unexpected sidekick — Jimmy Kimmel.For those who missed the gimmick, Will Arnett dragged the late night star on stage for a bit before he announced the winner for Best Writing in a Comedy Series.

Brunson won, but Kimmel —  who said nothing during the entire skit but did give a thumb’s up to the Emmy winner — opted to stayed put.

Brunson even tried by saying “Jimmy, wake up. I won,” but he wouldn’t budge.Backstage, Brunson said she didn’t mind too much.“I don’t know I know Jimmy Kimmel.

The bit didn’t bother me. Honestly, Himmy gave me my first big late night spot, he was one of first people to see Abbott Elementary.
