The Big Picture When you're in a life-or-death situation, you'd likely want a doctor nearby. On this week's Saturday Night Live, we see what happens when lawyers are there instead. Host Nate Bargatze was there with musical guest Foo Fighters and while we got a surprise Dave Grohl in the sketch, there didn't seem to be a doctor anywhere to be found when one was needed.
Instead of helping the woman in labor, the declaration sparks a debate among the passengers on whether or not a lawyer is the second most important job. A teacher stands up and tries to explain why her job is important, but everyone in the plane boos her. Later, a mother stands up and while everyone claps, Bargatze says they need to get serious, and they begin to debate once more about what is the second best job after a doctor.
Later in the sketch, Mikey Day comes in as the pilot and says that his job is important but then admits that autopilot does a lot of his work as well. Then, Grohl does come in dressed as a doctor, but it is just his Halloween costume.
Can Someone Get Chloe Fineman a Doctor? Beyond Grohl's sudden appearance, the best part of the sketch is when Heidi Gardner stands up and says that her job as a mother is the hardest before she bows and sits back down, but does nothing to help Fineman who is in active labor. Despite all claiming to have important jobs, no one was able to help Fineman at the end of the day.
