[ light laughter ] luckily some people from puerto rico came and threw their paper towels at him. [ laughter and applause ] you can have these back. Youre good. This morning trump went on twitter and talked about signing an executive order on health care, saying that hed use the power of the pen. Or in his case, the command of the crayon. [ laughter and applause ] meanwhile, i read that the u. S. Is suspending visa applications from turkey. Trump was like, dont worry, well have them back for thanksgiving. [ laughter and applause ] but in the mean time this is kind of weird, i read that trump stages his photos so that you cant see his double chin. [ laughter ] in response, trump was like, fake news. [ laughter and applause ] i guess that trump was so furious with the that Rex Tillerson called him a a moron, and in a new interview he said the two of them should compare i. Q. Tests. [ light laughter ] well, i guess they actually did it and we got our hands on their answers. Steve really . Jimmy yeah, check this out. Steve wow. Jimmy the first question on the test was, kevin is six time zones behind diane, if its 9 00am for diane, then for kevin its tillerson wrote 3 00am, trump wrote, time to tweeeeet. Steve wow. [ laughter and applause ] jimmy tweet tweet. Heres the next one. If a bus travels ten Miles Per Hour for three hours, how many miles has it gone . Tillerson wrote 30 miles.

Yes, and like a barrel curled bang and a scrunchie and jimmy you have a lot going on with that. A lot going on in that picture. Jimmy this was the this was the style, though. That was like my Community Theater head shot in orlando, where i grew up. Jimmy yeah. I mean, look how cute. Come on, its so cute. All right. Jimmy heres my first head shot is right here. [ laughter ] i was going for a serious role. Like, i was like a serial killer or something. I dont know what. Vintage . Jimmy i dont know what it looks like. It looks like someone just it looks like im wearing an acorn hat or something. So odd and bizarre. But that wasnt your first photo shoot. I said that to you, and you said actually no, you had done glamour shoots with you mom. I did glamour shots. Do you guys remember glamour shots at the mall . Jimmy i dont remember this. It was every little girls like, fantasy, i feel like. And my mom was getting it for my dad or something which is creepy and i cant even think about that. But theyre like, professional sort of, like, semiprofessional, like pictures where you sort of wrapped yourself up and you get, like, your hair and your makeup done, and of course you have oh, gosh. [ light laughter ] jimmy here it is, it is glamour shots. I never heard of glamour shots, but very glamorous. [ laughter ] how great is that . I look like a jimmy so, this this is not your wardrobe . The ruffle that matches my hair . [ laughter ] and i had braces. Jimmy everythings ruffled. Oh, my goodness. Jimmy oh, its cute. Come on. I look like my mom or something. Ugh, that hairstyle. Jimmy no it looks so cute i mean, imagine this guy going to glamour shots. [ laughter ] what is he doing . I think its so cute. Thank you. Jimmy i dont remember glamour shots, but look how youve changed. Now youre on the number one show. You are crushing, by the way. You are so good on the show. Thank you. [ cheers and applause ] jimmy really, man. Its like its amazing what youre doing. Youre playing you as a a 60 something year old you, as well. Youre doing, its so well done. Jimmy, thanks, man. Jimmy i know, you know me, i love you. I i but its so subtle the change youre doing. If i had to place an old version of me, i would be like, now, you kids remember, what were doing. Theyd be like, all right, cut, youre taking us out of reality. Where as youre just nailing it. With these little changes and its so good. Thanks. Jimmy i dont know, how are you doing this . Its so fantastic. I love watching it, i cant get enough. Youre very kind. I have no idea. Im faking my way through it. I mean jimmy no, youre so good. Its its challenging, but, you know, its a three and a half hour makeup process to put the prosthetics on, to sort of age my character. Jimmy yeah, its like, wrinkles. So i have a lot of time to sort of get into character. And i dont know. Jimmy but just how do you do that show, and im just saying this as a fan, i get emotional watching. I could imagine you get emotional doing the performance. We do, i think chrissy and i, chrissy metz, who plays kate my daughter [ cheers and applause ] jimmy the whole cast is great. The whole cast. But i think chrissy and i are probably the most emotional, but i think sterling gets the award for like best crier, because he i feel like hes literally at the pont as an actor, hes like, what eye do you want me you have to the dramatic single tear drop down my cheek from . Like, hes that good. Jimmy he could really, yeah, he could direct what eyeball tears up. Oh, you want the right one . Jimmy oh, you wan the left one now too. Ready, action. Jimmy this one, then this one squirts out. Yeah, hes that good. Jimmy its just i just think its so phenomenal but then i was talking to you back there, im like, you have to do things with, acting with babies, and im like, how can you do it with one take, and youre crying and you said theres sometimes they are fake babies. There are fake babies because theres a new rule with homeland security, that anybody who works has to have a photo i. D. , so what mom is going to schlep her child, her like, newborn, to the dmv to get an i. D. [ laughter ] jimmy babies dont have ids. Babies dont have ids, but you have to to work. So oftentimes when were shooting with small babies theyre either baby dolls or they have this one robotic baby. Its weird, guys. Jimmy no, yeah, that would how can you act with a a robot baby . We were just shooting an episode, where i have, like, two very emotional scenes where im talking to a newborn, like, in the hospital. And i like, i go to put my hand on the robotic baby and its like vibrating and like, like, making weird movements and youre just sort of like, nope, this is a real child, like im trying my very level best. Jimmy you really have to really, like, im acting with a a robot. To cry with a single sterling tear. Jimmy better get the sterling tear. Ill never do it. And the babies vibrating. Jimmy also, gosh, hes so funny, too, man. Hes so funny. I feel like this season hes able to showcase that side. Jimmy yeah, he cracks some jokes. Can you explain what happened here . Did you split your eye open . I did. Jimmy what happened . In the shower, like a month ago i was in the shower, and i was bent over, and i just stood right up into the shower door handle, like right on my orbital bone. I know. Blood everywhere. And it was like three weeks before the emmys. And i had to work. And, so, what they had to do is i had those stitching for like four days, and then they took them off so i could work. Took them out. And then they used like tattoo coverup to coverup the bruise, but then we were in the middle of shooting an episode where, its the halloween episode, and i play cher, so cher wears a lot of makeup, so i got to like, and i was wearing like a purple outfit, and so i got to like really just use the bruise like the base of the purple eye shadow. It was great. Jim
