[ Cheering and applause ] That's --
You know what? -I'm so confused.
-That's a lot of love. -Yeah, that's so sweet.
I'm like genuinely taken aback.
-Yeah, good. -I don't know what to do now.
-I feel that way, too, though. -Okay.
-You've only been on our show once,
but I feel like I want to be friends with you.
I love you. -Should we?
-Yeah. -Done.
-You want to? -Yeah.
Cool.
[ Laughter, cheering, applause ]
It's a high--
You totally did it. I know, I know.
How is "Saturday Night Live" going?
-It's going really well, actually.
Everyone is really cool. It's very comfortable.
I feel like I'm still --
I forget that they've been doing it for so long.
So, like things happen [ Snaps fingers ] so quickly.
-Oh, yeah. -We were deciding the sketches the other day,
and I remember I was sitting in the chair
across from Lorne Michaels,
and everyone started getting up and leaving.
And I looked at Lorne, and I was like, "Oh, are we done?"
And he was like, "Yeah." [ Laughter ]
-"Yeah, we moved on." -I was sitting there
for maybe 30 seconds. Like it did not feel --
-There's no more scripts to read. That's it.
-We go through things so quickly.
-Is it because you're savoring every moment?
-Maybe, I guess you could say.
But also, at the same time,
I'm so in awe of everybody around me.
I'm also, I guess, being really quiet.
Because I was looking and, as we were taking the sketches,
he was like, "Is there a sketch you prefer?
This one or this one?"
I said, "Oh, I think that one's funnier,"
and he said, "Okay. Well, then say something."
And I was like, "Oh!" [ Laughter ]
-That's right. Exactly right. -"Yeah, you're right."
-Obviously, you learned some lessons
out of "Saturday Night Live." -I think I'm learning.
I'm picking up on it now. -Yeah, it's the best crew
up there, the best writers, the best hair and makeup.
It's so much fun. -Yeah, they're so seasoned.
-Yeah, it's great. You're gonna be fantastic.
Break a leg this Saturday. Come on.
We'll be watching. [ Cheering and applause ]
We'll be watching and supporting.
Last time we were here, we were talking about "Wednesday."
And, man, oh, man, it turned out one of the biggest shows
in the world on Netflix. Congratulations.
-Thank you. [ Cheering and applause ]
-And since you've been here, it got picked up for Season 2,
so there you go. [ Cheering and applause ]
More work.
Work breeds work.
Now you got to work more. -Yeah.
No, I'm very excited. -Do you have any idea
where you're gonna go this season at all?
-I don't know. I think we just started
getting a writers' room together and kind of talking about it.
And everyone's being really cool.
I think we want to up kind of the horror aspect a little bit
and then get Wednesday out of the romantic situation
and just let her be her own individual
and fight her own crime... -Yeah!
-...and battles [indistinct].
[ Cheering, whistling, and applause ]
-You've been nominated for every single award.
Congratulations. Well-deserved. I, honestly...
-Thank you. -...I really can't get enough.
[ Cheering and applause ]
Do you like going to these award shows and doing the whole thing?
-I don't think -- going to award shows,
the 30 minutes before, it's the most sick
you'll ever feel in your entire life.
You're so anxious, so nervous, so whatever, and especially --
You're with people that you admire.
Like the SAG Awards, it was, you know, all of your peers,
everyone who's a part of SAG,
so you're seeing these people like --
-You had a hot table. I loved your table.
-Yeah, I had a really cool table.
-Yeah, Zendaya was there. -Yeah, well, Zendaya,
I feel like we've kind of -- we've met and not met
so many times, I feel like, this time, we were actually
able to have a nice conversation.
But I was kind of freaking out because she was sitting next
to Paul Mescal, who I think is so talented and so good.
And I was so nervous to meet him,
and I knew he was gonna be at my table.
And I remember him -- he introduced himself to me
when I wasn't expecting it. -Ooh.
-So he was like, "Oh, hi! Nice to meet you.
I'm Paul." And I was so nervous,
I kind of couldn't look him in the eye,
so I fear that it was a bit like --
-You were like, "Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah."
-"Yeah, 'Aftersun' was great. -Oh, my God.
-You did that." -I've done that before,
and you go, "Oh, my God. That's so rude."
But you're just nervous,
and "You get me at the wrong moment."
-I have that happen so many times to me at award shows.
-But, no, the best thing, I think,
was you and Aubrey Plaza at the SAG Awards.
[ Cheering and applause ]
It was so -- it was so funny, and it destroyed.
It was a great bit.
And then the Internet went on fire.
And it was like, "We want to see you guys in a movie.
Do anything together. Do something. Play sisters."
-Yeah, I would do anything with her.
She's another one of those people where everyone
kept saying, "Oh, you remind me of Aubrey,"
or, you know, "Oh, you two should get together,"
and we just never did until we were backstage then.
And she just looked at me, she said, "Hey, you!
[ Snaps fingers ] Get over here."
[ Laughter ] -Yeah!
See? She's so funny. -Yeah, she was really cool.
-She's smart. She's everything, yeah.
Can we talk about "Scream VI"? -Yeah.
-It's a big deal. Tomorrow.
[ Cheering and applause ] It's out tomorrow.
"Scream VI" is set in New York.
Oh, yeah. [ Cheering and applause ]
New York City, where we do our show.
How do we set up this "Scream"?
-Well, this time, it's kind of --
Well, yeah, it's a different setting, which I mean,
the "Scream" franchise has never left Woodsboro,
so I think that it makes for a lot more
an intimidating story, I would say.
You know, Ghostface can come for you on the subway,
push you off a skyscraper building.
You know. -Yeah.
-New York City has got a lot of places.
-Everything about this -- [ Laughter ]
I think everything about this movie is just bigger
and scarier, and also Ghostface is just so much more brutal.
I feel like he's very unforgiving,
and everyone's a victim, not just the lead cast,
which makes it better.
-Now, do you know, when you get the script,
do you know who Ghostface is, or do they change the script
so that you don't really know who it is?
-Sometimes they give us different scripts,
different endings.
This time around, they just didn't give us
the third act at all. [ Laughter ]
-So you gotta see the movie to find out who the killer is?
-Yeah, now you just don't know. -[ Laughs ]
-Everyone usually finds out at least by the last two weeks.
-Yeah. -But they try to play games.
-Congrats on that, and congrats on "SNL." You're gonna be fantastic.
Alright. Now, Jenna, here's how this works, okay?
We have nine mystery boxes
containing objects no one has ever seen before.
On your turn, you pick a box,
take out the object, describe it to your opponent.
Then they have to guess
if you're lying or telling the truth.
Jenna, you pick the first box.
[ Cheering and applause ]
[ Audience shouting numbers ]
-Three?
[ Drumroll ]
-You are choosing 3.
[ Cheering and applause ]
Huh, it looks -- it looks light.
-[ Groans ] -Yeah, too late.
Too late to act now. -Now?
-Too late to act now. So, I know it's light.
Are you going to lie or are you going to tell the truth?
Very interesting. Jenna Ortega.
[ Suspenseful music plays ]
[ Tapping ]
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Interesting. Yeah, yeah.
Oh, oh, I see. You're making sounds.
You're distracting me. Yeah.
-You don't know what's happening to you.
-What is in your box?
-Can I be honest with you, Jimmy?
-Yes, you can always be honest with me.
-I don't -- I'm -- I'm not sure
I even understand what's happening here.
[ Laughter and applause ]
-You don't understand what's happening?
So, this thing that you are now looking at,
you don't understand. -I don't.
-Can you describe it for me?
-I fear of being a bit too on the nose,
but it is "Addams Family"-themed.
-Yeah. Well, we knew that you were coming on.
-Cousin Itt. Yeah, well, it would make sense.
-It would make sense. We did book you.
-Cousin Itt.
He happens to be reading a magazine of some sorts,
perhaps like "Vanity Fair" Chewbacca edition?
[ Laughter ]
-Cousin Itt is reading a magazine
and it could be "Vanity Fair." -Yeah, on a nice bench.
-A bench? So, he's outside. -Yeah, he's outside.
It seems to be a nice park, Central Park,
if you will, in New York. -Oh, it's New York.
So, he's in Central Park? -There may be a corgi involved.
-It's a corgi? -Yeah.
-So, Cousin Itt owns a dog?
[ Laughter ]
Cousin Itt owns a pet?
-I guess so. -So there's a lot of hair.
There's a lot of hair. Is Cousin Itt wearing a hat?
-Yes, he is. Like he always does.
He always has a hat. -Yeah.
But if you took your time answering that,
that would mean that you're lying.
So, I think that you are...
...telling the truth!
[ Drumroll ]
-I am.
[ Cheering and applause ]
[ Ding! ]
-Wow!
"Vanity Fair." -Honestly --
-Chewbacca? It's weird. That is odd.
-Yeah, I should've lied because it's way too niche.
Like the "Vanity Fair" Chewbacca article, instantly --
-Yeah, we wouldn't do that. Alright.
[ Audience shouts numbers ]
[ Drumroll ]
-2! 2!
-Oh, my back!
-I already did that. -[ Groaning ]
Ooh! -Ohh!
-Ooh! Here we go.
[ Suspenseful music plays ]
[ Laughter ]
It's a painting.
-Painting of what?
-Famous, famous, famous painting.
Something you'd see in a museum.
-I feel like you have to be more specific on this game.
-I don't think -- I don't want to be more specific.
[ Laughter ] I want to be vague.
Think of a famous painting. -Oh, so it's just a painting.
Don't tell me it's the Edvard Munch, the --
-"The Scream"?! -Ooh.
-Ooh, that's interesting. -That's a bit on the nose, too.
-Well, you do have a movie called "Scream" coming out.
So, that's pretty funny, not niche.
[ Laughter ]
Now,
now, here's what makes it funny.
It's not -- The painting's face.
It's Colonel Sanders.
[ Laughter ]
-Colonel Sanders is very funny.
-Colonel Sanders is funny.
Kentucky Fried Chicken.
[ Laughter ]
I love this. In fact, I want to keep it
and hang it in my bedroom because I love it.
[ Laughter ] It's so funny. There you go.
It's "The Scream," Colonel Sanders Scream.
-Honestly, I feel like Colonel Sanders is pretty funny.
[ Laughter ]
Just to repeat myself. -He's not supposed to be funny.
He's selling food. -I think it's -- I think --

I feel like you might be telling the truuuuu...
-[ Shouts indistinctly ]
-Uhhh...
-Did you just say something in Spanish?
Wait, what did you just say? [ Laughter ]
That's not fair.
I feel like you just helped somehow.
-Maybe it's a lie. Maybe it's a lie. Maybe it's a lie.
Maybe too on-the-nose references.
I'm sorry, I'm taking forever.
It's just 'cause I really don't know.
I don't really care. I'm going to go with truth.
[ Laughter ]
-No! I was lying! [ Buzzer ]
The "Mona Lisa."
-Oh, my God. You just took -- -Really a good actor.
Thank you. -No.
-Did you say my acting skills are fantastic?
That's so nice of you. -Yeah, that's ex-- Yes.
-Thank you!
Thank you!
[ Laughter ]
Time to pick a number.
[ Audience shouts numbers ] One more.
[ Drumroll ]
-I'm serious. -This is it.
This is it. For all the marbles.
Jenna Ortega, pick a nombre.
Uno!
Oh, whoa, whoa, whoa. Wow, it's a bowling ball.
It's a bowling ball. Wow!
Alright, so it really is heavy.
Oh, my goodness. Alright.

-What is it?
-It's a Bobblehead. -It's a Bobblehead?
-A Bobblehead of Peter Pan.
Um, he seems to be in a bit more of a --

[ Laughter ]
He's got kind of like the Leonard Cohen --
-Peter Pan in like a business suit?
-Peter Pan in a business-esque suit.
He's wearing a hat that's a bit more of like
a Leonard Cohen fedora hat.
And he's -- [ Laughter ]
-Leonard Cohen. That's so funny.
-But is also in a cowboy hat with wheels
and marshmallows all in there.
[ Laughter ]
-Are you just naming words? Are you just saying words?
-There are so many marshmallows in there.
-You just said 20 words.
Peter Pan is on a marshmallow?
-No, there's -- So, cowboy hat.
-Uh-huh. -Truck wheels.
-Yeah. -Bunch of marshmallows in there.
In there is a Bobblehead figurine

If you're telling the truth, props to my props department.

Props to props.
Welcome back to "Props to Props."
-Yeah.

And if we are, I would know
