- Goggins was the celebrity guest host on SNL this week
- Both appeared on season three of The White Lotus
- They both appeared in a sketch about an adult with baby feet
Walton Goggins and Sam Rockwell had a post-White Lotus reunion on this week’s episode of Saturday Night Live – in a rather bizarre context.
Goggins was on hosting duties last night (10 May) and later appeared in a musical sketch about a man with very small feet. Rockwell made a cameo near the end.

In the song, cast member Jane Wickline comes across an abandoned baby shoe and resolves to find the baby it belongs to.
She encounters various children whose feet don’t fit the shoe – “too skinny,” one “too fat,” and one “too long and oh so flat.”
“I’m a fully grown ass man, with tiny baby feet”
Goggins then appears and sings “Actually, the shoe belongs to me. I’m a fully grown ass man, with tiny baby feet, and I’d really be so grateful if you’d give my shoe back to me.”
“I found this tiny baby shoe,” Wickline sings, “and the man it belongs to.”
“Surely this is fate,” Goggins replies, “and you and I will date!”
Wickline appears confused, to which he responds: “You and I are going to date now, right? Because you found my shoe.”

Though she clarifies that she assumed it belonged to a child, Goggins remains insistent. “No, you thought you were looking for a baby, but you were looking for me. Ding dong, bing bong. Here I am! She finally found her man, and they made love on the carousel…”
This attempt at a romantic gesture doesn’t work and Goggins complains he’s been “straight up gaslitted.”
“I know what you’re thinking. He has small feet. Is his other part small too?” he says.
Sam Rockwell’s cameo
Rockwell appears near the end as a balloon artist. “I think we’ve all learned a very valuable lesson today today. Cinderella rules aren’t real-life rules,” he quips.
Then, Wickline asks him if he’s made a habit of “interrupting conversations with nuggets of wisdom.”
Concluding the song, she sings: “I guess the lesson here is when you find a baby shoe, and the shoe fits like a glove, you can go about your day but it don’t mean you’re in love.”
How did Goggins and Rockwell end up interacting on The White Lotus?
Goggins played the morose, vengeful Rick on the latest season of The White Lotus. He had travelled to Thailand with his younger partner Chelsea (Aimee Lou Wood), but was clearly there to do more than just go on holiday.
Rockwell plays Frank, an old friend of Rick’s. They convene in Bangkok, where he gives a bizarre speech about his vices before he found God and got sober.
