After a slight break, SNL returns with a slew of guests announced for the month of November. In the coming weekends, viewers can expect Tiffany Haddish, Taylor Swift, Chance the Rapper, and Eminem to put on some memorable performances.

But first, the pair of Larry David and Miley Cyrus. And by now, you know SNL is going to pull all the stops for their cold opens. Their last featured Alec Baldwin as Donald Trump at a trucker rally in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, where he addressed Puerto Rico, his feud with Bob Corker, getting people to say “Merry Christmas” again, and Eminem’s BET Hip Hop Awards freestyle that ripped Trump apart.

Tonight, Baldwin returns with yet another up-to-date cold open. It starts with Trump speaking with his former campaign manager Paul Manafort, who is charged with several counts including tax fraud and money laundering. After they go over their relationship, it cuts into them in the shower, you know, to make sure he wasn’t wearing a wire. The bit gets even better once Vice President Mike Pence, who was still wearing his suit, and Attorney General Jeff Sessions, who was rocking a bathsuit from the "1890s" but also looked like a prison uniform, joined them.

You can watch it above.
