Live from New York, it's Vice President Kamala Harris!
The Democratic nominee for president made a last-minute appearance in the cold open on "Saturday Night Live," appearing with Maya Rudolph, who has impersonated Harris on the show throughout the election season.
The cold open began with James Austin Johnson doing his impersonation of former President Donald Trump, who was dressed as a garbage man, alluding to something the former president really did earlier in the week.
The sketch then cuts to Rudolph as Harris, along with Jim Gaffigan as Harris' running mate and Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz and Andy Samberg as Doug Emhoff.

The two eventually leave Rudolph as Harris alone to practice her speech.
"Gosh, I wish I could talk to someone who has a been in my shoes," Rudolph as Harris said. "A Black, south Asian woman, preferably from the Bay Area."
Rudolph as Harris then looks at the mirror to find the real Harris staring back at her.
"You and me both sister," the real Harris said.
"I'm just here to remind you, you got this. Because you can do something your opponent cannot do, you can open doors," the real Harris added.
Rudolph as Harris then impersonates the vice president's laugh.
"I don't really laugh like that do I?" the real Harris asked cheekily.
"A little," Rudolph as Harris replied.
Then, it was Rudolph's turn to share a message with the real-life Harris.
"Now Kamala, take my palmala," Rudolph said. "The American people want to stop the chaos."
"And end the dramala," the real Harris joked.
"With a cool new step mamala," Rudolph joked. "Get back in our pajamalas, and watch a rom-comala."
"Like Legally Blondala," the real Harris quipped.
"And start decorating for Christmas. Falalala," Rudolph said.
"Because what do we always say, keep calmala and carry ondala," they both said together.
"We know each other so well we even finish each other's..." Rudolph began saying before the real Harris joined in on her sentence to have them both say, "belief in the promise of America."
The two then got up to say the iconic opening to "SNL."
But first, Rudolph said that she would vote for "us," or the real Harris in the presidential election.
"Great, any chance you're registered in Pennsylvania?" the real Harris joked.
Harris' schedule originally had her traveling to Detroit after a campaign event in North Carolina on Saturday, but instead she and her campaign headed to New York City for the show.
The appearance was not be the first time a presidential candidate has appeared on the iconic sketch-comedy show. Last season, former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley appeared in the show's cold open while she was running in the Republican primary.
Former President Donald Trump also hosted the show as a candidate in 2015, and former President Barack Obama appeared on the show in 2007.
Comedian John Mulaney hosted the episode alongside musical guest Chappell Roan.
