01:30 | That must have been the twi hards or something like that. |
01:34 | Hey, is it true you still haven't seen the "lost" finale? |
01:37 | I saw it in bits and pieces and I finally saw the end. |
01:41 | When? -- About a week ago. |
01:43 | What, why did you wait so long? |
01:45 | Because -- it was -- I don't know why. I've been shooting. |
01:50 | You were shooting. |
01:51 | I've been working. I was there. |
01:54 | It was the most incredible -- it really was -- I'm so glad they brought me back. |
01:57 | It was the most incredible human experience -- Being on "lost" or watching -- the end scene was all of us. |
02:04 | All of those chairs from those seasons of Lost every single person's chair was in this, like, circle. |
02:11 | You saw the names on all the chairs. |
02:13 | All of our names were there. And we all shot that scene together. |
02:17 | It was just sort of -- end of this amazing era of storytelling and -- you know what I mean? |
02:23 | Yeah. Well Sure you know and for me, it was like the end of my life. |
02:25 | Yeah. I saw you have a picture of Matt Fox in the dressing room that I'm in. -- Yes, I do. |
02:31 | I figured that was a good sign because he's my brother -- Jack is always watching over us, yes. |
02:38 | Now, you tweeted today that you were going to bring me a pizza, which, by the way, all guests should do, just fyi. |
02:45 | But you own a pizza parlor ,apparently. |
02:48 | My brother-in-law and my sister and I have a pizza place in Sun Valley, Idaho. |
02:53 | One of the most beautiful places in the world. |
02:54 | Yeah, I've been there. |
02:56 | What's the name of the pizza -- IT'S called McClane's pizzeria and we rock. |
03:02 | Why is it called McCLANE'S -- Because my brother-in-law's named McClane. |
03:06 | He's like this big tatted earring guy. |
03:12 | He looks like Mr. Clean. |
03:14 | Like a really good looking version of mr. clean. |
03:16 | But he has a recipe, at2 pizza recipe it's thirty years old |
03:20 | and I franticallybaked pizzas because the hotel that I live in here well, when I'm here, i live in the [ bleep ] not the chateau like every other actor. |
03:32 | Is it good to give out your address on television? |
03:33 | Oh, no, why did I just ... Oh My God -- oh, We'll bleep it out but -- that was stupid. |
03:42 | I want you guys to promise not to go there. |
03:45 | Yeah, so -- that's so stupid. |
03:48 | Yeah, yeah. -- Whoa. |
03:50 | Might want to switch to another hotel. |
03:54 | They were supposed to bake the pizzas and the guy who owns it is one of my close friends and he said, look, man, I can't, there's a health code problem. |
04:02 | I can't prepare -- I can't bake anything someone else prepares. |
04:05 | He shouldn't be your friend. |
04:06 | People like that -- No I ... it's services business. I don't want to get him in trouble. |
04:10 | So I found out about this at about 10 after 5:00. |
04:14 | Supposed to be car pickup at 6:00. |
04:16 | You're making excuses for your pizza -- no, I'm not making -- i ran -- well, I drove frantically to one of my best friend's houses and Ibaked these pizzas for you. |
04:24 | That's very nice of you. |
04:25 | You have for our margarita pizza, you have to do fresh tomato and basil on after you bake it -- Oh, after your break it -- bake it. |
04:35 | The cheese is not melted? |
04:37 | The cheese is melted. |
04:38 | But you don't want to put the tomato on top to the pizza because before you after you bake it |
04:45 | When you cut it, you don't want to squish all the tomato into the cheese. |
04:49 | Is that your specialty, the margarita pizza? |
04:52 | It's pretty good, man. |
04:55 | Guillermo, come in from God's heeding .... |

05:15 | Is this hot? -- It should be warm. |
05:19 | I have to try it. |

06:06 | Oh, my Gosh. Yeah. But they had full-on like -- uniforms. |
06:12 | Who did? |
06:13 | The other pizza makers. |
06:16 | And all I saw were people's nostrils because their noses were turned up to us the entire time who is a teacher. |
06:23 | You had to have T-shirts. You can't just show up out t-shirts on. |
