“The Last of Us” star and celebrated “internet daddy” Pedro Pascal doesn’t take responsibility for breaking character during the “SNL” sketch “Lisa From Temecula.” In “Temecula,” Pascal is joined by “SNL” cast members Bowen Yang, Ego Nwodim, Punkie Johnson, and Molly Kearney at a birthday celebration dinner for Shayna (Johnson). Nwodim plays the titular Lisa, a litigator who likes her steak well done with a side of ketchup and her butt to be left alone. When Lisa lashes into her tough steak, the table shakes, causing not only the peas to fly but the laughs as well.

Pascal laughs when the table starts shaking but soon regains his composure. However, the rest of the cast begins to chuckle, with Yang breaking down in all-out laughter, covering his face with his hands to mask his laughing. At one point, it looked like Yang couldn’t hold back the tears, and the table wiggled out the sketch. Pascal blamed his visible giggle fit on Yang. Pascal told Esquire, “Frankly, it was Bowen Yang’s fault.” He said, “I’m just going to blame Bowen Yang because he started laughing, and I looked to my right, and that is a contagious disease. I’m a corpser, as they say in the U.K. — a giggler — and I never survive it. And if somebody starts laughing, I’m a goner. And that’s what happened.”
