Kenan Thompson Isn't Afraid Of A Wild, Knife-Wielding Deer On 'SNL'

Kenan Thompson refused to let a deer get away with murder on SNL this weekend.

Thompson played a stubborn dad touring the home of his daughter played by Saturday Night Live host and rapper Megan Thee Stallion as fellow cast member James Austin Johnson pointed to a deer near the woods outside the home.

Megan along with Johnson and cast members Molly Kearney and Devon Walker tried to point out the deer outside a window for Thompson, who pleaded for the group to show him the deer.

The group was later in awe over a bunny seen riding on the back of the deer, a sight that Thompson insisted he couldnt spot in the yard.

Dad, imagine a laser coming from my finger, Megan said.

What? Thompson asked.

Do you see the third cloud on the side of the sky? Kearney followed.

The side of the sky? Thompson questioned.

Its right there at 12 oclock, Johnson said.

Whats that East Coast time or West Coast time? Thompson asked.

The deer continued to creep closer to Thompson, who claimed he wouldnt look further for the animal, before it eventually got behind him on a couch.

Will yall please stop messing with me? Thompson requested.

Mr. Reynolds, its got a knife, Kearney yelled to Thompsons surprise.

You can watch Thompsons move toward the knife-wielding deer, a move that Megan claimed saved the group, below.
