Will Ferrell returned to Saturday Night Live as the ghost of Jeffrey Epstein in a cold open sketch that targeted President Donald Trump. The bit aired during the show's season finale on Saturday.
President Donald Trump, portrayed by James Austin Johnson, encountered the spirit during a midday nap. Ferrell's Epstein greeted him as an old friend and confirmed he had killed himself with a wink. The ghost mocked Trump's low approval ratings and described the afterlife as uncomfortably hot.
