It was a real blast.
Sydney Sweeney, who hosted “Saturday Night Live” last week, starred in a hilarious skit that portrayed her as a Hooters waitress who, despite being really bad at her job, for some reason made a lot of money.
In the sketch, which begins with Chloe Fineman and Chloe Troast comparing the tips they received when they ask Sweeney how much she made.

“$36,000,” says Sweeney, 26, to the shock of her fellow waitresses.
“Is that low,” the actress continues as Fineman, 35, and Troast, 26, continue to look horrified.
“I wouldn’t say low,” says an exasperated Fineman.
“Yeah, that’s pretty good, Tina,” Troast adds, referring to Sweeney’s character.
Just then, Bowen Yang comes in and says it was “another bad day” after receiving a 12 cent tip and a note saying “You ruined my day.”
Sweeney then complains that a table upset her over a tip, while Fineman announced, “Yeah, that's going to happen.”
Moments later, “SNL” veteran Kenan Thompson enters the room carrying something behind his back.
“Sorry, I’m so sorry, I had to run to the bank. “Here’s your tip, new girl,” says Thompson, 45, dropping a wad of cash on the table.

“Damn, she’s fine,” he shouts before running out of the room.
The other waiters were not impressed.
“That's crazy. I served this guy last week. When I brought the check, he patted his pockets and said, 'Sorry, I just got laid off,'” Fineman says.
“Yeah, when I was serving him he said, 'Are there any ladies who work here,'” Troast complains.
Sweeney claims it's all about good customer service before walking up to a table full of men and promptly showering them with beer. NBC/SNL After apologizing profusely, one of the men shook off the comment by saying, “Whatever you do is fine,” and Eve offered to buy her a new car. NBC/SNL

After apologizing profusely, one of the men shook off the comment by saying, “Whatever you do is fine,” and Eve offered to buy her a new car.
Sweeney's colleagues watch with increasing frustration as she accidentally causes a man to break his sobriety, but is still offered a new car by the group.
Finally, after each of the servers tries to replicate Sweeney's magic (and fails), they tell the “Anyone But You” star that she “makes them feel bad” and accepts their tips.

Finally, after each of the servers tries to replicate Sweeney's magic (and fails), they tell the “Anyone But You” star that she “makes them feel bad” and accepts their tips.
Shortly after recommending that Hooters might not be the right place for Sweeney, who reveals that she has worked at an airport and as a border guard, the chain's mascot, Hooter B. Owl, comes to life.
“You can’t go,” says the owl. “You are my Harry Potter. And this is your Hogwarts, so please stay.”

After Sweeney agrees, the other three ask the mascot if he wants them to stay, to which he replies, “I don't care.”
“Now I have to go,” the owl mascot continued. “I have a funeral to attend. My friend Flaco flew into a building.”
The skit ends with Hooter telling B. Owl that the only way to cheer him up is if someone shows him his breasts, but quickly says goodbye when Troast volunteers.
