00:00 [MUSIC PLAYING]
00:04 Take two, apple mark.
00:07 OK, we're good.
00:08 We're good.
00:09 I say action.
00:10 [LAUGHTER]
00:12 [MUSIC PLAYING]
00:14 I am the ghost of Christmas present.
00:16 You're going full Dickens on me?
00:19 Get ready.
00:19 Something very special is about to happen.
00:21 Oh.
00:22 [LAUGHTER]
00:23 [MUSIC PLAYING]
00:26 That's just fun to watch.
00:28 [MUSIC PLAYING]
00:32 Grab my hand.
00:33 We're doing this?
00:34 We're doing it.
00:34 It's going to be quite a ride.
00:35 [MUSIC PLAYING]
00:41 Sean gave me a call and said, we are
00:45 thinking about doing a brand new version of Christmas Carol,
00:51 told from the perspective of the ghosts.
00:56 And then he said, oh, and it's a musical.
00:58 [LAUGHTER]
01:00 Four, five, six.
01:02 Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, hey.
01:04 I can tell you that Will, Ryan, and I, we all
01:07 had a little panic, feeling a little insecure about dancing.
01:10 [LAUGHTER]
01:12 Ryan and I started talking.
01:13 We're like, we should really document how bad we are.
01:16 [LAUGHTER]
01:17 [MUSIC PLAYING]
01:20 [LAUGHTER]
01:21 And hopefully, there'll be some improvement.
01:24 [MUSIC PLAYING]
01:26 My wife made little jelly tap shoes.
01:29 That is spectacular.
01:30 These socks bring the whole look together.
01:33 Making someone wear jelly tap shoes is assault.
01:36 I think in several states, that's probably legal.
01:38 But Will, of course, being Will, put them right on
01:41 and went and did a little number.
01:43 In fact, roll the clip.
01:44 [MUSIC PLAYING]
01:50 [LAUGHTER]
01:53 [GRUNTING]
01:55 Don't you hate it when you do jelly tap?
01:57 Jelly taps!
01:58 Nobody buys American anymore.
01:59 Gosh.
02:00 [MUSIC PLAYING]
02:01 Between acting notes, dance notes, music notes,
02:05 your brain is like trying to play 3D chess.
02:08 And I'm only good for checkers.
02:10 Before it's all too late.
02:13 Too late.
02:14 Before it's all too late.
02:16 [LAUGHTER]
02:19 Full disclosure, we're not doing well.
02:20 Yep.
02:21 [LAUGHTER]
02:22 Tiny thing, but any way that we put that glottal on.
02:25 Ian would always come up with three quick things,
02:27 two quick things.
02:29 Cool.
02:30 I still don't know what a glottal is.
02:31 I would never ask what it meant.
02:33 I would just agree.
02:34 Then I would get a, you nailed it.
02:35 That was a lot of extra glottal.
02:37 It's probably about 50% more.
02:38 And that's sort of what I was looking for.
02:39 I'd be like, great.
02:40 Great.
02:41 I really glottaled the [BLEEP] out of that.
02:42 I used to think that I was sure of what made people tick.
02:47 You strip them down right to their core
02:50 and find a self-centered prick.
02:53 I feel very lucky to be a part of this.
02:56 It's so fun.
02:58 So can we do a little good?
02:59 Do a little good.
03:01 Give a little more.
03:02 Give a little more.
03:03 What's a little more?
03:04 For Ryan and I and Octavia to go through the dance
03:07 and the singing, it's just been such a joy.
03:09 Whether it's Christmas day or a random day in May.
03:14 You can't really put a price on having fun.
03:17 It's just special and incredible.
03:19 Every second of it's been pretty amazing.
03:21 Do a little good.
03:22 Hey!
03:23 Just do a little good.
03:24 Do a little good.
03:25 Just do a little good.
03:27 Do a little good.
03:30 [SIGHS]
03:36 That was invigorating.
03:37 I've never done that before.
03:38 That was fun.
