Abbott Elementary star and creator Quinta Brunson returned to Saturday Night Live this week, reviving the popular "Traffic Altercation" sketch from her 2023 hosting debut.
In the sketch, Brunson and Mikey Day play strangers stuck on a ferry, with Day’s character launching into a petty feud over a bad parking job. What starts as a tense exchange quickly unravels into a chaotic pantomime, with both characters expressing their outrage through exaggerated gestures.
Chloe Fineman appears as Day’s daughter, attempting to support her dad but ultimately adding to the confusion and making things worse for both of them.
The sketch ends with a surprise cameo from "Weekend Update" co-host Colin Jost, who enters trying to offload an actual Staten Island ferry. In 2022, Jost and Pete Davidson bought the decommissioned vessel for $280,000. Jost has since described it as the "dumbest purchase" he’s ever made.
