No. It's just make up to show they fought their way to the warehouse.

[@markowasowskii181]

IndiePhunq that was not makeup... it was so irrelevant from the skit, it even started showing up at the end so it had to be real

[@MadDash84]

GrumpyGramp - It is. Go back to the beginning and look. It just wasn’t as noticeable at first because the camera wasn’t as zoomed in. I thought the same thing till I rewinded the clip.
