Announcing the show's vacation and upcoming guest hosts, Jimmy Kimmel was taken by surprise at the appearance of Matt Damon, who stepped out of his bedroom wearing a bathrobe and a face mask - pretty much how people like us look during the pandemic quarantine.
The householder himself was "shocked" to know that his guest has been in his house for three months. Damon even "complained" that he had to read the same book several times.
To make it worse, just after Kimmel announced that he would take the summer off to spend "even more time with his family", his wife sneaked out of the bedroom where "demon" Damon had apparently been living.
After the "drama" unfolded, Kimmel said that he apparently would have to kickstart his long-wanted vacation by "going and getting a divorce".
The only thing worse than quarantine is finding out Matt Damon has been in your house the whole time… pic.twitter.com/obZTVzwWiy

This is the worst news! 😔
I am so sad not to watch your monologue for the summer. You make sense every single night during this horrible time. Please come back. I look forward to you making fun of our lives being destroyed 🤣You will be missed.
