It's time for the next stop on Ellen's Trunk of Dreams.
[MUSIC]
>> Jeannie and the crew have traveled more than two thousand miles and
they're not done yet.
They've been driving across the country and
surprising fans with our trunk of dreams in the all new 2016 Chevy Malibu.
Jeannie, are you there?
>> Hi Ellen. >> Hey Janie.
>> Hello.
>> Hi, wow.
>> Hi. >> Look at Chantelle and
Sylvia you're all dressed up today.
>> [LAUGH] >> Tell everybody where you are and
who we're surprising.
>> Okay, well, first of all, I have to tell you that these girls have been having
a total blast driving across the country in the Chevy Malibu.
And right now, we are here in Kansas City, Missouri,
because we're gonna be surprising Lisa.
And Lisa loves you.
She is a huge fan of the show, and
she wants nothing more than to come to a show for her 40th birthday.
So she got together with 15 of her closest friends, and
they uploaded a video onto Ellen Tube to tell you why they should come to the show.
So today we have a really pretty cool birthday surprise for her.
>> Very exciting.
Okay, so Lisa- >> [LAUGH]
>> I know, that was
quite a video they sent.
That was very elaborate.
So, Lisa thinks she's about to Skype with Claudia who is in our audience department
regarding ticket request.
So, Claudia will say that she has to get approval
from her boss because it's a big request, that of course is me.
And so- >> [LAUGH]
>> Claudia?
You ready?
>> Yep.
[NOISE]
>> Hi, Lisa.
>> Hi.
Hi, how are you?
>> We're good.
>> Good. My name is Claudia.
I'm with the Ellen DeGeneres Show Audience Department.
And I noticed you guys requested 16 tickets to come to the show?
>> Yes!
>> That's amazing.
Is it for a special occasion?
>> Yes, for my 40th birthday.
>> Aw, >> Whoa.
>> [APPLAUSE] >> Now,
I notice there's a lot of people there.
Are those are friends you'd be inviting to the show?
>> Yes, well, some but a lot of my girlfriends are here and then we brought
about 40 kids to thank Ellen, and then all of our husbands are excited to see you.
>> That's great.
Well unfortunately, parties of five or more, I cannot authorize.
So I'm gonna have to ask my supervisor.
Just give me one quick second, okay?
>> Okay. >> Okay.
>> Thanks. >> Yep.
>> Here she is. One second.
>> My god.
>> What is the request?
>> Aah!
Aah!
>> [APPLAUSE] >> Hey.
Hey I need you to do me a favor, Lisa.
I need you to go answer your door.
Someone's at your door.
>> My God.
>> Aah!
>> Steady much.
>> [LAUGH] >> Aah!
>> [APPLAUSE] >> All right.
>> [APPLAUSE] >> Okay.
>> [APPLAUSE]
[CROSSTALK]
>> Let's go in LA.
>> Okay, so it is almost your birthday.
We wanted to surprise you with an early birthday party so
we have balloons, we have a cake.
>> [LAUGH] >> Sorry.
We got a candle.
Okay girls.
Go ahead and make a wish.
>> All right. Make a wish and blow it out.
>> [LAUGH] Aah >> Now you spit on the cake.
It seems- >> [LAUGH]
>> I think I know what you wished for.
Silvi and Shantell can you hand-in the birthday present, please?
>> Yeah, go ahead. This is your birthday present.
>> My god.
>> Okay, go ahead and open it up.
You better talk to Ellen what she gave you.
>> My god. You guys are the-
>> Isn't it amazing?
>> Aah!
>> [APPLAUSE] >> So Lisa.
>> Thank you, thank you.
>> You're welcome.
So Lisa, those aren't just VIP tickets you're coming but
we're gonna fly all 16 of you to Los Angeles so
you're gonna come hang out and >> My god.
>> See taping >> Happy birthday to you, and
continue watching the show.
Just sit back, and we're gonna keep doing the show, and you'll be able to watch, and
I'll check in with you later, okay?
>> Thank you!
Thank you, Ellen!
>> Happy birthday.
We'll be back.
So, Jeanie is with Lisa and our trunk of dreams crew.
[NOISE] >> Still excited.
Okay, here's a thing were gonna ask you to go outside there's a cash grab out
there, Lisa.
And we were gonna tell you to get in there and grab as many things as you could.
But, there's like $5,000.
>> Okay.
>> And different things in there.
And rather than make you go through that whole thing,
we're just gonna give it to you.
So happy birthday to you.
>> Aah!
>> I want to thank Seth Meyers, Sarah Paulson, American Authors,

Be kind to one another, bye.
