00:00The cast of Saturday Night Live will be competing in challenges testing their culinary skills.
00:06Who will be the last one standing?
00:11I'm excited.
00:12I'm gone.
00:15Flipping Burgers.
00:17You are a hamburger chef, but you don't work alone.
00:21Is this an escape room?
00:22You work very closely with your partner and even share a chef's coat.
00:26Using every ingredient in front of you on every burger, assemble as many burgers as possible in 60 seconds.
00:3460?
00:38The team that makes the fewest burgers is eliminated from the competition.
00:43Ready?
00:44Oh no, I'm not ready.
00:47Do we go right now?
00:49Oh no, I have a big dress.
00:50That's going to be okay, we're going to figure it out.
00:51You have a big dress, I have no ass.
00:53You guys are going down, because I'm left-handed.
00:56Ew, she peed!
00:57She peed?
00:59Chloe's pre-breaking.
01:00I'm not, I'm not!
01:01Oh my god.
01:02Go.
01:03Go.
01:03Oh f***er, you're a f***er.
01:05The pickles, the pickles, the pickles.
01:07Wait, did we do this?
01:07Pickles!
01:08Oh.
01:09You should be quicker with the goose.
01:10You're Sarah's quorum.
01:11Come on.
01:11Are we done?
01:12No pickles, ready?
01:13No.
01:13I know.
01:16Ah, they're breaking, I hate vegans.
01:18No, no, yes!
01:21Now we're good to go.
01:22Go, one, one.
01:22One, two, go, three.
01:24Oh god!
01:25Go!
01:25I hope you guys are doing bad over there.
01:27We're crushing it.
01:28Great, great, great, great.
01:29We're not even talking, because we're actually trying to f***ing win this.
01:33I shouldn't curse, this is Epicurious.
01:35I watched this with my son.
01:36See, it's harder than you would think.
01:38Well, you know.
01:40Are you serious?
01:41Holy s***!
01:42Wait, that's crazy.
01:44We got a lot.
01:44We had a complete system.
01:45Jane and I have rock-hard chemistry.
01:47We have rock-hard chemistry.
01:48I'm like shocked.
01:49One, two, three, four, five.
01:51Guys, we have hundreds.
01:54One, two, three, four, five, six, seven.
01:56Perfect burger.
01:57Four and a half, and I think that means that we're done.
01:59Bye, James and Sarah.
02:02He's the one who f***ing loves this.
02:03Because I actually like this channel.
02:06This is awful.
02:06This is really heartbreaking.
02:09Hey, guys, we have to, like, shoot.
02:10We have to roll on this, so, like...
02:13I'm shocked.
02:14I'm shocked.
02:15You know, I just wasn't born for high-volume cooking.
02:17Bye-bye, James.
02:18Pissing me off.
02:19See, you don't have any f***ing mustard on the f***ing burger.
02:22Oh, that's interesting.
02:24Huh.
02:26Can we break them by completion?
02:27Can we break them by completion?
02:28There's no integrity in this game.
02:30I want a recount.
02:31All right, we'll take it up at the league on the next one.
02:32All right, thank you.
02:35The Starving Comedian.
02:37Oh, come on!
02:39Your food budget is low, but you survive on the finest of affordable packaged foods.
02:44Fresh fruit's cheap.
02:45Ooh, sexy.
02:47Use only smell and touch to determine the brand, item, and flavor of the affordable food in front of you.
02:55But we can't eat it?
02:56You may not taste the food.
02:57Yell out the complete correct answer before anyone else.
03:02Each correct answer earns a point.
03:04The diner with the fewest points is eliminated from the competition.
03:09Ready?
03:10If we guess wrong, are we out?
03:12No.
03:13Okay.
03:13Well, I'm not going to stop talking.
03:14Oh, I'm so glad I got out before ruining my makeup.
03:18James, we whispered in the answer.
03:20I'm not going to help you guys because f*** y'all.
03:22Where is it?
03:23Oh, I heard the bell.
03:24Ew.
03:25Ew.
03:26Oh, oh, spaghetti-o's.
03:27Oh, spaghetti-o's.
03:29Point for Chloe.
03:29Can I rinse my finger?
03:31Here, take this one.
03:32What is it?
03:33Ew, what is that?
03:35Can I put it on the ground?
03:37Wait, what?
03:37Oh, uncrustable.
03:39Uncrustable.
03:39Yeah, you're right.
03:41Peter butter and jelly.
03:43Peter butter and jelly.
03:43Grape jelly, uncrustable.
03:45Guys, I got that one.
03:47What did you put in my hand?
03:49Take it up with my f***ing lawyer.
03:51Ew.
03:51Oh.
03:54What is this?
03:55Ramen.
03:55Ramen.
03:56Cup of noodles.
03:57Chicken.
03:58Cup of noodles.
03:58Chicken cup of noodles.
03:59Cup of noodles.
04:00All right, she's giving it to Chloe.
04:01You said brand name.
04:03Stop screaming.
04:04Stop screaming.
04:05Figure out your rules.
04:06Stop.
04:08Wait, it's right here?
04:10Where is it?
04:10Totino's pizza rolls.
04:12Totino's pizza rolls.
04:13Totino's pizza rolls and classic cheese.
04:16Gene, you're amazing.
04:18Sorry, guys.
04:19They're saying the answer before I have it in my hand.
04:22Is anyone else closing their eyes underneath?
04:24Yeah.
04:24Yeah.
04:24It's just so lovely.
04:26I'm self-eliminating.
04:28I'm self-eliminating.
04:30Oh, burrito.
04:31A f***ing hot pocket.
04:32That's a hot pocket.
04:34Regular pepperoni pizza.
04:36Is it an Annie's burrito?
04:38Bean and cheese hot pocket.
04:39Ham?
04:40Ham and cheese?
04:43Wow.
04:43That's brilliant.
04:45I'm done.
04:45I'm done.
04:48The Tie Graper.
04:50Select a throwing partner from the cost.
04:53You will have three chances to catch a thrown grape in your mouth.
04:57The competitor with the fewest catches is eliminated from the game.
05:02Ready?
05:03You chose crazy.
05:05You chose crazy.
05:07Well, don't fastball it to me.
05:09Oh!
05:11Okay.
05:13Oh!
05:22So close.
05:23Is that it?
05:23It is going to be hard.
05:25That was great.
05:25Yep.
05:26Put your hands up because she's standing there.
05:28Oh!
05:29Oh my god.
05:30I missed this one.
05:31We're out.
05:32Ready?
05:34Okay.
05:35Okay.
05:40It was a good throw and I closed my mouth too early.
05:42I'm out.
05:43That was a perfect throw.
05:45I'm not sad about being eliminated.
05:47Chloe and Jane did wonderful and Ashley carried us through the first round.
05:51Oh, that's sweet.
05:52I'm taking my L like a man.
05:54I'm just happy to be here.
05:55Thank you so much.
05:56Have a wonderful day.
05:57Ew!
05:58It wasn't an Oscar speech.
06:00Bye-bye.
06:01That's depressing.
06:02Get a nice shot of that.
06:05Bartending shift.
06:06You are a bartender.
06:08You must use every tool and every ingredient in front of you to prepare three perfect drinks.
06:13A glass of red wine, an espresso martini, and a frozen piña colada.
06:18Make sure every drink is poured, garnished, and placed on the coaster.
06:22The last bartender to finish their drinks is kicked out of the bar.
06:28Ready?
06:29Wait, so it's speed, but they have to be perfect?
06:32Use all the ingredients that we're going to prepare for.
06:34Yep.
06:36Go, go, go, go.
06:38Whoa.
06:39Just go slow, because they're going fast, and they look like fools right now.
06:44Oh, damn.
06:45Make sure it's all the way in.
06:47Whoa.
06:49Wow.
06:53Ashley, it looks like she's working at a restaurant.
06:57Oh!
06:58What was that?
07:03Eat another glass.
07:05You're good, you're good.
07:05Garnish, garnish, garnish.
07:07How much wine do you think you have to put in there?
07:08And we're going to do a house pour, and we're just going to do one of those.
07:13It's the perfect line.
07:13You look like you're working.
07:15Not to freak you out, Chloe's really far along.
07:18We're going to do this.
07:20There you go.
07:20You're good.
07:25I'm afraid of Chloe right now.
07:26Shut up.
07:27That's how intense she is right now.
07:29Right?
07:31I'm afraid.
07:37She just shook it with her hand.
07:39Shut up.
07:40Oh.
07:40Uh-oh.
07:41A weakness.
07:43Oh, interesting.
07:44Ashley's just pulling farther ahead than you would think.
07:48Look at the care Ashley's taking.
07:51Oh, Lord.
07:52Oh, Lord.
07:52Spill?
07:52We got to spill it.
07:52Step back.
07:53Oh, no.
07:54I don't know how to do this.
07:56Oh, no.
07:56How do you do this?
07:58Take it.
07:58Spray.
07:59Spray.
07:59I don't know how to do wine.
08:01You've never opened the wine jar.
08:03Spin it.
08:04I think I'm done.
08:06What'd you forget?
08:07Okay.
08:07I think I'm done.
08:08How did you open?
08:13I forgot the ice.
08:14I don't know how to open wine.
08:17Put the needle in at the angle that the needle is turning.
08:21Oh, my God.
08:21I've never had to do this.
08:23I've just had men in my life.
08:24That's hot, girl, probably.
08:26Wow.
08:26I've never had to open.
08:27I know.
08:28I've just never had to do this before.
08:29Your drink is ready, ma'am.
08:32Your drinks are ready.
08:33You want an umbrella in each drink?
08:38Oh, it hurts.
08:40It hurts.
08:41I don't like this.
08:43You want a straw in here?
08:44Are you straw in here?
08:46All right.
08:46Final thoughts.
08:47Oh, my God.
08:48Well, this is 100% proof alcohol.
08:51But it's beautiful.
08:53And no one got the pina colada correct.
08:54This is crap.
08:56You added the coconut after the smoothie.
08:59So at least I think I should win for points here.
09:01But I've never had to open a bottle of wine,
09:03and I learned that in real time at age 37.
09:06Do I have to drop this?
09:12Short order.
09:13You are a diner chef.
09:15You must use every ingredient to make an omelet for your hungry customers.
09:19Oh, I'll make myself a snack.
09:21Your cast members will evaluate the appearance and taste of your final creations.
09:26Then vote on the winner of this entire competition, who will receive the coveted golden spatula.
09:34Ready?
09:35Are we starting?
09:35Eggs.
09:36It's not speed, honey.
09:38It's not speed.
09:38Just make a good one.
09:38Are we sure it's not speed?
09:41Oh, interesting, Jane.
09:42Jane, saute.
09:44I'm an inch from Ashley's head, and I said, you know, maybe I would start sweating the aromatics first.
09:49Wait, what'd you say?
09:50I said I would be sweating the aromatics first.
09:52Oh, that's smart.
09:53I used to have to crack like 200 eggs a day in my old job.
09:56Me too.
09:57What was your job?
09:58Coffee shop?
09:59Yeah.
10:00Cheese in the egg.
10:01That sounds good.
10:02I'll do that.
10:04Wow, chives during cooking.
10:07Owen, I don't know if it's right, but.
10:10Show us your flip.
10:11Why don't you show us your free flip?
10:13Do you think I should flip it?
10:14Oh, I would do it in the middle, and then this, and then flip it, flip it, and then turn
10:19it over.
10:19Okay, yeah.
10:20Add your crap.
10:21Add my crap.
10:23Whoa, look at that flip!
10:24I mean, that was gorgeous.
10:26Oh, wow.
10:27I think it's...
10:29I think once, actually.
10:31Never.
10:31If it's an omelet, I think it's one, one, one.
10:34And you want to make sure you're with your friends.
10:36That's right.
10:40We'll be more epicurious right after this.
10:42And there's one ingredient you can never forget.
10:45Love.
10:45Love.
10:46Let me say that.
10:47While I...
10:48Let me say my line.
10:49Don't look at my mouth when you're talking to me.
10:53You're doing well, Jenny.
10:54Okay, I think I'm done.
10:56I think I'm done.
10:57It's cooked.
10:58Trust me, unless you get sick in a little bit.
11:00This is where we...
11:01Yeah, yeah, yeah.
11:01You got it, you got it, you got it.
11:03Yeah.
11:03Just don't forget...
11:04No.
11:04No, that's good.
11:05Okay, okay, okay.
11:06I'm good.
11:06Plate it.
11:07Plate it.
11:07No, no, no.
11:08No.
11:08Keep it cooking.
11:09It's not cooked yet.
11:10It's not cooked.
11:10I got time.
11:11The egg is...
11:11That's plenty said.
11:12No, the inside.
11:13I think it should be brown at all.
11:16Okay.
11:17It's pretty brown.
11:18No, it's too brown.
11:19That's good.
11:21Okay, great.
11:23I'm not going into the middle.
11:25I'm going to the end.
11:30That's good.
11:36I love you very much.
11:38Voting for Jane.
11:40You're an a*****.
11:41Yes!
11:42You're meaner than Chloe was when she was making her drink.
11:44As a lactose intolerant Jewish person, this challenge is ableist, so I'm going on looks
11:50alone, much how women are judged in this industry.
11:53Why are you looking at me like I'm judging women?
11:57And I give my eggs to Jane.
12:01Yes!
12:02Hmm.
12:03Hmm.
12:05Hmm.
12:06Hmm.
12:09Hmm.
12:10Oh, please.
12:12Oh, please.
12:13Give your egg to Jane.
12:14You know what?
12:15I'm going from the center.
12:15Yes!
12:17Everything's set.
12:20I'm going from the center again, Jane.
12:22Oh, I see a little bit of ooze.
12:23I hope that's cheese, not egg white.
12:25I hope it's cheese.
12:25I hope it's cheese.
12:25Oh, I see a snotty egg white, Jane.
12:27Okay.
12:28I see a hard brown.
12:30I knew it.
12:33Oh, no.
12:34Oh!
12:36It really doesn't matter at this point.
12:39Why are you doing that?
12:41It was not easy.
12:42I mean...
12:43Chloe, push one of Jane's eggs.
12:45It's good.
12:45Push it off.
12:46That's nice.
12:47It is nice.
12:48It's good.
12:49Hey, that's good.
12:50Nice enough to give a gal an egg.
12:54This is nice and, like, pillowy.
12:57Give a gal an egg.
12:58Oh, wow.
13:00Okay.
13:00Wow.
13:01This is a lot more cheese forward.
13:03Also, I saw Jane drizzle a little cheese into the egg,
13:07then add full cheese into the omelet.
13:10I'm lighting this on fire.
13:13Jane, you impressed.
13:14Good job, Jane.
13:16Wow.
13:16Hey, Ashley, you'll get them next time.
13:18Ashley, no.
13:18You'll get them next time.
13:19What?
13:20Ugh.
13:21I don't really understand what happened.
13:24I thought these people were my friends,
13:26and I think today I learned who they are, really.
13:30Monsters.
13:31Thank you very much.
13:32Yay!
13:33This is the best moment of my life,
13:35the highest honor I've ever had.
13:36I would like to dedicate this to all my peers,
13:38and especially Ashley,
13:39who made the worst omelet in the world,
13:42and I wouldn't be here without her.
13:43So thank you.
13:44I love you.
13:45Love you.
13:46Proud of you.
13:47And thank you all.
13:47Thank you, I'm curious.
