"Eyes on the prize" is a mantra that can really get away from you. That's what happens to Melissa McCarthy's character in the cut SNL sketch "Supermarket Spree," in which she focuses so intently on winning the game that she'll take out anyone in her way.

McCarthy's character has a plan: sneak into the employee section of the supermarket for the most expensive meats, then comb the store for valuable items like an industrial meat cutter and, eventually, a cash register. Vanessa Bayer plays her innocent competitor, who eventually gets taken down before McCarthy tries to assault the cameraman.

The sketch was cut from McCarthy's Saturday Night Live hosting gig on Feb. 13.
