"What's illegal?" "Well, if you got money, not much." *Oof*

[@canaisyoung3601]

See, that's the kind of subtle social satire that's lacking these days. Nice to know that Saturday Night Live is still capable of doing it.

This SNL skit is talking about "ritual murder" in the month of October, the evil occult celebration of Halloween. A curse shall be upon all those that celebrate that holiday of the evil fallen angel Lucifer.

Given that Daddy Warbucks is still wealthy during the Great Depression, I'm not surprised that Daddy Warbucks meets with a group of masked gentlemen for a "ceremony" once a month that involves eating something.

In the comic strips it is stated that Daddy Warbucks made most of his fortune during WWI. And connect that to his name... the man is a shameless was profiteer! Probably every time a bullet was fired in Verdun or the Somme Daddy made some cash.
