Getting Out-Frenched at a French Restaurant - Key & Peele

A man on a date overplays his hand when he suggests that he’s knowledgeable about French cuisine.

About Key & Peele:
Key & Peele showcases the fearless wit of stars Keegan-Michael Key and Jordan Peele as the duo takes on everything from “Gremlins 2” to systemic racism. With an array of sketches as wide-reaching as they are cringingly accurate, the pair has created a bevy of classic characters, including Wendell, the players of the East/West Bowl and President Obama’s Anger Translator.

When you realize that Duolingo isn't going to cut it..

[JoshuaCastillo]

He should just stick to continental breakfast.

Jordan’s face progressively transitioning from confident to completely f’ed up is halarious

[SamAceRothstein]

Key is a damn good actor, I was convinced his gibberish was actually French.

[buineto]

So this is what French sounds like to non native speakers...

Me: *turns on captions*
Captions: *[speaking French]*
Me: -_-

Poisson du jour : loup de merplu en vesson, served with a plumeur vert de cochon de plume menthe. That is served on an épais de gendarme de phyllis au pain and also some luminette rûche and soufflé petit de Fierte-du-Pont-Premier.
Our soup today is a Bourlain moussante which is just a dash of chettebindre and some melted pisson thon chebattre fleuri.
Our seafood today we have a very nice flétan pancrandre de ponce-vase from the the goudesson-mousson vallée and vesantin, it is served with a side of colombon-fonton de dainlain-maintain du guorde fermière colon sauce.

These guys never miss a single nuance (I love Key's clicking of the pen, putting more pressure on Peele to order), and this skit also ends perfectly. The actress -- not sure her name - was also wonderful.

[brotherronardo]

The accent was perfect and the fact he's not speaking real french is just so much funnier.

I remember I was working in a Korean restaurant, and this older man was reallly trying to impress this lady. So he called me specifically because I'm Asian and kept speaking in Korean. But I'm friggin MONGOLIAN and didn't want to shut him down. So I lied for the first time in that season and said I was a Korean born abroad and didn't know his own language. World must know I took one for that man

[randomthought]

his face at 1:44 when he realizes she can speak it 🤣🤣🤣

Peele trying to mouth the words Key says has me re-visiting this sketch every few months for a good laugh 🤣

[captaingreek]

I entered an "Italian" pizzeria once, saying: "Ciao", only to receive as an answer: "Sir, we are Albanians".

[notmuchgaming]

Keegan's French is so fluent that it turned Japanese for a moment

[elissaharbuck]

The random split second voice that comes out at as he’s desperately cycling through his lexicon at 2:14 is my favorite

[WhiplashMetalStudios]

You can see the supreme confidence from the expression of Peele at the start, slowly being drained as the sketch progressed, turning into resigned acceptance of defeat. Now thats brilliant acting! And Keegan's French accent ... he can literally play different nationalities and get away with it! 😂

[cyclonus]

The woman is the ultimate troll. She totally set him up when she was impressed when he said "Bonjour"

[dithperlay]

As a real native French, I’d like to mention that I did not understand a word he said in French!! 🤣🤣

[jakobbauz]

The way Keegan speaks 'French' with increasing intensity gets me every single time.

[piwetshombe]

This still cracks me up to this day! By far my favourite of their skits!
