Chance the Rapper showed his versatility on this week's episode of "Saturday Night Live," and it's not just because he served as both host and musical guest.
He opened with a song honoring his hometown of Chicago and also served as a TV courtroom judge; a junk-food fan who may have killed his parents; a reluctant cemetery ghost; and a restaurant Romeo whose destructive wire act with cast member Cecily Strong was one of the highlights of the evening.
Not shirking hosting duties, Chance actually introduced his own musical performance. He was joined by Megan Thee Stallion for another musical segment later in the show.
Chance shared the stage and the laughs with another guest, Jason Momoa of "Aquaman" fame, in a sketch focused on Judge Barry, who "takes no more than 10 seconds to reach a verdict" on the daytime court show, "First Impressions Court."
Judge Barry immediately renders guilty verdicts based on surface matters — clothing, name, hairstyle. "I know you're guilty of something," the judge says.
A plaintiff with a ventriloquist's dummy and a male exotic dancer are declared guilty before their names are even announced.

Finally, an older woman (Kate McKinnon) is suing her former live-in nurse (Momoa) for stealing. Momoa, wearing a leopard-print shirt, makes a surprise grand entrance to big audience applause.
"Listen, you hombre. I see the way you're looking at me right now and I know what you're thinking," he tells Judge Barry. Chance, as Judge Barry, can barely hide his smile.
Momoa's nurse tells the judge he's "not just some dumb gigolo" but a paralegal, although the actor's stumble over the word draws audience laughter.

McKinnon's prim old lady is having none of it. "Your honor, this man is a thief."
"She stole from me first," the nurse responds, leading the judge to ask what she stole. "My heart."
McKinnon's character cops to the sexual benefits of their relationship, but won't give in. "I still want my money and my chandelier earrings."
Judge Barry asks about the earrings. "What? These?" the nurse asks, ripping open his shirt to reveal the earrings, attached to his nipples and spinning around like tassles. "They were a gift."
Guilty!
