5:12 HE DOES WHISPER "Don't'-a break!" :)

"Why thank you Pepper-boy ! That's the perfect amount of pepper ! Bravo !"

[MichaelJDMusic]

Dana saying “don’t-a break” still in character is one of the best parts of this 😂

Under appreciated Tim Meadows line, “Your wizardry with that pepper mill really brightened my day. Here’s 200 bucks.”

I'm convinced that Farley made it his mission in life to make Sandler break character in every skit they did together! lol

[vagabond]

Carvey was amazing here, a true comedy legend.

I just love how Chris randomly became Yukon Cornelius for this.

Every time I go to a restaurant that offers you pepper from a pepper mill I instantly think of this skit in my mind and it cracks me up even now decade's after the skit originally aired lol.

At 5:11, Adam Sandler is about to laugh, and Carvey silently whispers to him. "Don'ta Break" ... CLASSIC!

I love the "behind the scenes" story about this skit. Farley was filming Tommy Boy in Hollywood, and Lorne made him fly to NY just to speak one line in this very skit. Farley was "in a mood", as Sandler stated recently - and he tried to make Adam break character by looking at him with a crazy cross-eyed expression. You can see him also reach for Adam as he walks away from the table, almost like he's trying to tickle him - anything he can do to make Adam crack up. I love stuff like that! RIP to the great Chris Farley and Phil Hartman.

I absolutely never get tired of watching this. One of SNL’s best skits ever

"Your wizardry with that pepper mill really brightened my day. Here's 200 bucks!" Tim Meadows is one of the best.

You like-a the pepper, eh?
The pepper is good, eh?

Adam Sandler has me rewatching the Farley sketches

[nathanwarzecha]

Chris Farley making Sandler get on the verge of breaking with only two words is legendary status. Farley adlibbed his over the top reply, which was just perfect!

[williamm]

I love the story that Chris Farley (RIP) was totally low key during the rehearsals but let loose when they performed this. Comic genius.

[VANRICKTONY]

Dana Carvey is such an awesome actor...
The best thing about his acting is his body language.
This guy is a killer

[bamagalforever]

I just love the fact that Farley says one line and Adam is dying-laughing 😂

[lilpip]

5:08 when Dana starts whispering to Adam, he’s saying “Don’t break” because Farley played it mellow at dress but in this sketch on air he hyped it up and Adam started to laugh 😂

[assmane]

This sketch is worth watching just for Farley’s performance. I love how a couple simple lines can be made so hilarious by his delivery.
