Some of the best Key & Peele sketches feature the duo caught up in an absurd competitive situation. Think of the hat-off, the Martin vs. Malcolm community theater performance, or the soul food showdown. This sketch from next week’s episode returns to the trope, this time in a 1960s jazz club setting.

In “Scat Duel,” they play beefing jazz vocalists whose performance turns passive aggressive quickly, with insults flying back and forth. The premise is not quite as off-beat as their previous forays into cutthroat banter, but their digs are funny, and delivered with just the right amount of silliness. Plus, the always hilarious Retta (Parks and Recreation) makes a cameo and ups the comic ante. Check out the exclusive premiere below.
