Bowen Yang Says Goodbye to SNL in Tearful Final Sketch
""Oh, sorry, my machine's kind of breaking down, so I'm closing my station. This is my last shift," Yang's character remarked. "Yeah, it's sad. I'm gonna miss everything about this place. The smells, celebrities would come through. He spoke to Grande's character on the phone, who said, "I wish you were home, but I'm so proud of you. All of the eggnog you've made over the years. Some of it was great, some of it was rotten." Yang quipped, "A lot of it got cut.""
"Yang and Grande then launched into a duet of "Please Come Home for Christmas." Part way through the song, Yang offered further heartfelt remarks: "I should have come home earlier. I just feel so lucky that I ever got to work here. And I just wanted to enjoy it for a little bit longer. Especially the people. I've loved every single person who works here because they've done so much for me, especially my boss.""
