Opening up at an AA meeting can be hard and vulnerable, but there's no filter on what exactly you're allowed to share with the group. That's basically the premise of this Saturday Night Live sketch as host and musical guest Jack Harlow tells his AA meeting that he has the perfect idea for a Pixar movie.

Harlow's concept is a "touching computer-animated film" that follows lost luggage trying to find its way home. The idea hits the usual Pixar character tropes: the regular joe suitcase main character, the uptight but funny briefcase (played by Jason Bateman obviously), and a gym bag named Jim. Kenan Thompson's character suggests there be a female suitcase "with boobs" to which Michael Longfellow replies with "What would that even look like"?

The sketch ends with the required Pixar song, sung by Cecily Strong, and of course, Tom Hanks.
