Meryl Streep Gets Turned on by Pedro Pascal as ‘SNL50’ Brings Back Kate McKinnon’s X-Rated Alien Abduction Sketch: ‘This Devil Wears Nada’
At “SNL50,” Kate McKinnon reprised her popular character Miss Rafferty from her series of Close Encounter sketches, surrounded by the all-star ensemble of Pedro Pascal, Jon Hamm, Woody Harrelson, Aidy Bryant — with Meryl Streep appearing as her mother, also Miss Rafferty.
Miss Rafferty, along with Pascal’s and Harrelson’s characters all recount their abductions, trying to convince their military interrogators, played by Hamm and Bryant. Miss Rafferty goes into great detail about her “unkempt private area,” as she uses Pascal and Harrelson to demonstrate her abduction. At that point, Streep’s Miss Rafferty appears, apologizing for her lateness: “My No. 1 turned into a No. 3,” and “us Rafferty gals always attracted the freaks,” which indeed attracts Pascal’s mulleted dirtbag character.
Streep’s Miss Rafferty leans into the flirtation, using a reference to one of Streep’s movies to describe her pubic hair: “I’ve got a sort of ‘Into the Woods’ situation.” (McKinnon broke at this point.)
With McKinnon sitting between Streep and Pascal — with both McKinnon’s and Streep’s legs spread wide as they smoke cigarattes — Pascal says leeringly, “You are a good mama.” Streep’s Miss Rafferty replies: “Yeah, well a good mama can also be a bad girl,” as they appraise one another. “What’s your name, Mustache?”
As Hamm — who was also laughing — tries to tamp down the heat between the two of them, Streep says: “This devil wears nada.”
It’s a strange bit of trivia that Streep has actually never hosted “Saturday Night Live,” despite her decades of fame. Pascal hosted “SNL” in Season 48. Harrelson also hosted in Season 48, at which point he joined the five-timers club.
