Pete Davidson Makes Surprise Return to 'SNL,' Plays Border Czar Tom Homan in Cold Open - Watch Now!
Pete Davidson is back on Saturday Night Live!
The 32-year-old comedian, who left the show in 2022, made a surprise return to NBC’s late night sketch comedy show on Saturday (January 31) to play border czar Tom Homan in the cold open.
The cold open took place in Minnesota, spoofing what Homan possibly could have told ICE agents who have been stationed there.

He tells them, “Wondering why Gregory Bovino was dismissed? I want to stress that it wasn’t because he did a bad job, or publicly lied about the shooting of an American citizen, or even dressed like a Nazi, even though he was still doing these things when the president elected him. So I’m here now. We need to tighten up. That starts with remembering the mission objective. Now who could tell me why we’re here in Minneapolis?”
At the end of his chat with the ICE agents, Pete, as Homan, asks them, “Let’s recap. What have you learned today?
“This could be wrong, but that you hired a bunch of angry, aggressive guys, gave us guns and didn’t train us, so this is maybe what you wanted to happen?” James Austin Johnson, as one of the agents, asks.
Homan responds, “Oh, come on man! Don’t start thinking now!”
