      *Opinunate ted*
      You didn't pay attention to Chandler's words. THIS IS NOT THE CLIP DESCRIBED IN THE VIDEO DESCRIPTION ABOVE.
      Seems over the years SNL has done at least two skits based on the movie, and this isn't the one described. Someone goofed royally. The other one is much better, because it shows an "alternate ending". Someone realizes that old man Potter stole the money from George's uncle, and the whole crowd of people decide to take the law into their own hands.
      There are one or two re-enactments of the skit here on CZcams, done by other acting groups, based on the SNL version, but the actual SNL version can't be found. Why the SNL channel messed up this way is beyond me.
