Let's talk about something that's happening this weekend. I produced a movie called Nancy Drew and the Hidden Staircase. You know what? I think I'm going to ask Alexa where it's playing so that we all know, because I want you to see it. It's a good movie. I'm happy about it. Alexa? Alexa, where is Nancy Drew and the Hidden Staircase Playing? Nancy Drew and the Hidden Staircase is playing at the AMC Burbank 16. Oh, good. Well, that's great. It's right down the street. So, good. You're going to lo

ve this movie. I saw an early cut, and I found it to be a fresh and fun take on the genre. How would you get an early cut? I have access to your entertainment system. That's how I know you never watched that new Clint Eastwood movie, even though you told him you did. Well, I'm very busy, Alexa. It'll be our little secret. But everyone should go see Nancy Drew and the Hidden Staircase. I can't wait for you to take me and Portia. I'm not going to take you to the movies. Oh, I get it. You don't con

sider me a real part of the family. We're like Kardashians, and I'm Khloe. All right, that's enough. Everyone should go see Nancy Drew and the Hidden Staircase this Friday. Do you have dinner plans? Goodbye. See, it didn't work out. You just threw that in there? Is it still on? Yes. It's-- Still on? Ow! Ow! Oh! Ow! Oh! Ow! Ow! Oh! Oh! Oh! Ow! We'll be back.
