He then gushed that his favorite holiday is Christmas, which is due to, ‘The food, the music, the family. But largely, it’s because I have a very deep and personal relationship with Santa.’

The star added that, ‘every year, I make my Christmas list and I tell it to him. It’s kind of our ritual.’

Adam stated that he tends to tell his wish list to Santa in private, but decided he would reveal it live due to Santa being a fan of the sketch comedy series.

However, instead of simply reading out the list from a piece of paper, the Hollywood A-lister announced that he would make the list live while playing the piano.

‘The piano is part of the ritual. He loves hearing me play, and it’s actually me playing,’ he told the audience. ‘Can we get a closeup of my hands?’

The camera then zoomed into his hands and before showing off his skills on the piano, he quipped, ‘See, they’re very big. Very big hands.’ He then played a quick tune to prove that he could play the instrument.

‘Hey, Santa. It’s me, Adam Driver. From the nice list. And also Girls,’ he said, referencing to the HBO comedy series he starred in as Adam Sackler.

Driver then began to list out items he wanted for Christmas: ‘I turned 40 this year, Santa. So I would like five pairs of chinos. I also want one of those giant metal Tesla trucks…’

The actor continued to reveal some of his wishes, and stated, ‘I would like people to  stop coming up to me on the street saying you killed Han Solo…’

Towards the end of the opening monologue, Adam attempted to play O Holy Night without breaking eye contact from the camera and also revealed his favorite holiday drink is eggnog.

He then shared a few jokes with the audience and expressed, ‘Oh, you know what I want for Christmas is a ginger bread house. Do you think a ginger bread man gets scared when he realizes the house is made of his own skin?’

‘That’s a cute one. You can tell your kids that one,’ The House Of Gucci star humorously added.

Marcello Hernandez and Ego Nwodim played hosts who promoted tiny bags, and were joined by Driver – who portrayed Kevin.

His reserved and monotone line delivery was a stark contrast from Marcello and Ego’s energetic personalities.

‘And we’re here to tell you that right now tiny is huge,’ Adam announced, while holding up a very small, pink handbag

Throughout the sketch, the trio listed off an assortment of items that could fit in the mini bags, followed by ‘That’s it!’

‘One AirPod, and that’s it!’ Marcello said, with Ego chiming in to add, ‘One Altoid, and that’s it’

Driver later helped promote tiny luggage and stated in a serious tone, ‘You don’t need to bring anything. What are you, a bellboy? There will be stuff there’

Suddenly, they brought out an associate named Georgina – played by the episode’s musical guest, Olivia Rodrigo

‘My name is Georgina, and I don’t have a last name. It’s Georgina, and that’s it! We also have a carry-on option. This one is so small, it can only fit your secrets’

In conclusion, the group revealed the outrageous prices for the very tiny bags, with some costing the price of $14,099 or $25,650 ‘plus tax’

During the episode, Adam also had the chance to embrace his favorite holiday and starred in a funny sketch that took place at a Christmas party with a group of friends

The actor played, Mark, who was hosting the bash and was setting the table with an assortment of tasty food

She told everyone, ‘Don’t ask me. That’s Mark’s department.’ Adam suddenly appeared, wearing an apron and carrying a hot dish

‘Oh, beep beep. Let me go right past you,’ he said to a few guests that were blocking the long table

Adam then disappeared back into the kitchen to grab more food just as the doorbell rang. Sarah Sherman and Andrew Dismukes then walked in and apologized for being late

Suddenly, both Andrew and Adam came back to the table carrying dishes. Dismukes said, ‘Beep beep,’ but the Hollywood star laughed it off and attempted to still put his own plate down

The atmosphere at the party immediately changed as they both began to argue over who could put their dish down first

He quickly realized his mistake and corrected himself. ‘I mean that’s it!’ which promptly ended the skit.

While he was hidden in the kitchen, the hungry guests asked his partner – played by Heidi Gardner – if there was an estimated time when dinner would be served.

She told everyone, ‘Don’t ask me. That’s Mark’s department.’ Adam suddenly appeared, wearing an apron and carrying a hot dish.

Heidi jumped in to try to calm the matter, and asked help from the other men at the bash, but they responded that they could not ‘get involved’

‘You see, this is my house, son, and in my house, when I say, “Beep beep, excuse me, coming through, let me just scoot right past ya,” you better move!’ Driver sternly said

Andrew replied with, ‘Well, my daddy didn’t raise no mover. He raised a, “Beep beep watch out, coming up behind you, let me just squeeze right by ya real quick”‘

The doorbell suddenly rang, and the neighbors – played by Kenan Thompson and Ego Nwodim – entered

Thompson stood in between Driver and Dismukes to place his dish down on the table and said, ‘Beep beep’

The two were about to argue with Kenan, but he showed that he had a gun placed in the waist of his pants, silencing the pair

He put his dish on the table, causing Adam and Andrew to lose the argument
