Pete Davidson returned to Saturday Night Live on November 2, 2024, appearing in a musical sketch during John Mulaney’s episode. Davidson played a customer ordering a gallon of milk before the premise spiraled into a musical mashup featuring Lion King opossums and dancing Timothée Chalamet lookalikes.
What happens in the sketch?
Davidson starts as an unsuspecting customer who orders a gallon of milk. The simple request becomes the launch point for an escalating musical sequence, with the action moving through unexpected comic imagery, including opossums associated with The Lion King and dancing lookalikes of Timothée Chalamet. Peacock’s recap describes the segment as part of the episode’s run of musical comedy; it does not establish an official title for the sketch.
