{\an8}- Oh, what's your definition of a wild night? {\an8}- Bathtub with bubbles, yeah? {\an8}- My kind of night, no. {\an8}- [Hailee] What's the line? {\an8}- Parties should feel like shipwrecks. {\an8}You should emerge from them soaking wet, {\an8}out of breath, and hopelessly? {\an8}- Yeah. - Hopelessly disoriented. {\an8}- [Anna Baryshnikov] Woo-hoo! - Yes! {\an8}- That's my definition of a wild night. {\an8}It should look like a shipwreck. {\an8}- We are the cast of 'Dickinson,' {\an8}and w
e are about to Dive In with MTV News. {\an8}(cheering) {\an8}- [Ella] Okay, next question. {\an8}(Hailee exclaiming) {\an8}(Anna exclaiming) {\an8}[Ella] Rebellion is a major theme of the show. {\an8}What's something you've rebelled against? {\an2}- I mean, this is a pretty obvious rebellious, {\an2}but I had a huge party in high school, and our canary died. {\an8}(Ella laughs) - No! {\an8}- You told me this story. - Wait, at the party? {\an8}- Yeah. - Who killed the canary? {\an8}- So, when we'
re setting up the party-- {\an8}- The next Agatha Christie. - This is bad. {\an8}- When we're setting up the party, I was like, {\an8}"God, this canary's right in the middle of our dance floor." {\an8}So I moved my beloved family canary {\an8}to somewhere where the cat then later could jump. {\an8}- [Toby] Ahh. {\an8}And it was really sad because I got into a lot of trouble, {\an8}and then my mom was like, "And I really loved that canary." {\an8}- Oh, no! {\an8}- Which, so did I, it was really a
wful. {\an8}But I would say that was a pretty classic rebellion. {\an8}- There we go. {\an8}- [Jane] If there was a TV show about your life, {\an8}what would it be called? {\an8}Careful! - Ugh. {\an2}- Adrian's would be something about suspenders. {\an8}- Suspender Queen. {\an8}- Beautiful Genius Life. {\an8}- [Hailee] Oh my God! {\an8}- You're all so frightened of me {\an8}that no one would answer what mine would be called. {\an8}- I said Beautiful Genius Life! {\an8}- Oh, I thought that was Ha
ilee. {\an8}Oh I naturally assumed it was Hailee. {\an8}I never would've assumed that was mine. {\an8}(laughing) {\an8}- [Anna] Wow, note passing plays a huge role in the show. {\an8}What's the juiciest note you've ever received? {\an2}- I got a note on a train once. {\an2}Some guy kind of looked at me furtively {\an2}a couple of times on the journey, but hadn't said anything. {\an8}And then, at the end of the journey, {\an8}he was too nervous to speak to me, {\an8}and he gave me a note with his
number on it, {\an8}saying, "I think you're beautiful." {\an8}- Oh, that's sweet. {\an8}I definitely thought you were gonna say, like, {\an8}"Do you like me? Circle yes or no." {\an8}Like one of those. {\an8}- Oh, it wish it had been that. {\an8}- Got it. - But it-- {\an8}Hey, you got some digits, did you text him? {\an8}- No. - Okay. {\an8}- I smiled all the way to work though. {\an8}- Oh, cute. {\an8}- It was really cute. {\an8}I love it when people do that sort of thing. {\an8}- [Hailee] I k
now, right? {\an8}- I once gave that kind of note to someone, {\an8}(laughing) and it did not go well. {\an8}We did then meet up, and I was like, {\an8}within five minutes, I was like, "This was a mistake." {\an8}- "This was a mistake." - And within 10 minutes, {\an8}I was gone. - Really? {\an8}- Yeah. - Impressive. {\an8}- What's a piece of 1880s clothing you would work {\an8}into your current day wardrobe. {\an2}What's something that should be left in the past forever? {\an2}- Corsets. {\an2}-
Yes. {\an2}- 72 petticoats. {\an8}Just one is cool, right? {\an8}- The hoop skirt. - Hoop skirts. {\an8}Bum rolls. - You can't sit on that. {\an8}- Bum rolls. - Bum rolls. {\an8}A bum roll. {\an8}(Adrian drum rolling) {\an8}Thank you so much. {\an8}Is a little piece of padding, right? {\an8}That, um, {\an8}I don't know, guys, come on, help me out here. {\an8}- It sits on your bum. {\an8}- It's like a cushion - It's like a shelf. {\an8}- that sits right above your tush. {\an8}- But it's very muc
h about creating the right shape. {\an8}- It's just so that you can set anything there if you need-- {\an8}Like, throughout the day. {\an8}- For safe keeping, yeah. {\an8}- It's sort of like a butt shelf. {\an8}- It's like a book shelf. {\an8}- A book shelf or a butt shelf? {\an8}- A butt shelf. - Both. {\an8}- Great. {\an8}- But I think the stuff I'd like to stay is {\an8}the guys clothes. {\an8}They're looking good. {\an8}- Suspenders. {\an8}- 100% {\an8}- Our day where we wore men's clothes w
as one of my {\an8}favorite days shooting {\an8}ever. {\an8}- I've never been more comfortable in the whole show. {\an8}- We don't have to wear corsets. {\an8}- No, nor me. {\an8}- Yeah (laughter) {\an8}- [Adrian] Last question! - Woo! {\an8}- Which is, thank you, thank you for the bum roll. {\an8}(laughter) {\an2}The show includes a lot of poetry, but also a lot of {\an2}dancing, which activity are you better at? {\an8}- Dancing or poetry? {\an8}- Yeah, yeah, which one? {\an8}- Like a hard neit
her. {\an8}(laughter) {\an8}- You're my favorite human. {\an8}- I'd love to say dancing, but my version of dancing is {\an8}just like throwing my limbs everywhere. {\an8}Like, everyone gets hurt when I'm dancing. {\an8}- Prove it. {\an8}- Prove it, show us, demonstrate. {\an8}- [Adrian] Prove it. {\an8}- What, No! {\an8}- Yes, does it say-- {\an8}- Yes, it says, "Prove it." {\an8}- [Hailee] Oh my God, it fully says. {\an8}No really lets see it. {\an8}- [Jane] Just a wiggle, just a little wiggle.
{\an8}- Wooo {\an8}- Oh Jesus {\an8}No joke, a little fearful of my life just then, okay.
