The two characters, played by Bowen Yang and Jim Gaffigan, displayed moments of camaraderie and agreement despite their differing political backgrounds. The debate featured comedic exchanges about grading papers, addressing Middle East crises, and references to past controversial statements. The skit captured the idea of finding common ground between political opponents and ended with a comedic twist, as the characters unexpectedly found mutual understanding. Meanwhile, Vice President Kamala Harris, portrayed by Maya Rudolph, watched the debate in disbelief alongside her husband Douglas Emhoff and President Joe Biden, portrayed by Andy Samberg and Dana Carvey. The skit humorously depicted the essence of political debates and spin tactics, with characters celebrating insignificant victories and soundbites. The episode was hosted by Nate Bargatze, with musical guest Coldplay performing.
