THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR BEING HERE.
THANK FOR COMING TO SEE US.
YOU TWO KNOW EACH OTHER.
YOU HAVE A HISTORY.
YOU'RE FRIENDS?
WHERE DID YOU USED TO HANG OUT?
>> WELL, I WOULDN'T SAY WE'RE FRIENDS.
>> I DON'T REALLY KNOW DAMIAN THAT WELL.
>> WELL ENOUGH.
>> APART FROM ONE NIGHT.
>> OH, WAIT!
HANG ON.
IS THIS SOME KIND OF WORLD EXCLUSIVE.
>> DON'T EMBARRASS ME BECAUSE I CAN'T REMEMBER IT.
>> IT'S A NAUGHTY ESTABLISHMENT CALLED THE BOX.
HAVE YOU HEARD OF IT?
A NIGHT CLUB WITH SCANTILY CLAD PEOPLE.
NAUGHTY CABARET.
WE GOT A MUTUAL FRIEND CALLED DOMINIC WEST.
WE WERE ALL IN NEW YORK AT THE TIME.
DAMIAN AND HIM JOINED ME IN THE BOX.
>> SHE WASN'T PERFORMING.
LET'S MAKE THAT CLEAR.
>> NOT THAT NIGHT.
>> NO.
>> CLASSICALLY TRAINED ACTRESS.
>> AND THEY WERE BOTH A BIT ENEBRIATED.
THE WOMAN WHO IS A HOST AND SINGS AND DRAGS SOME
UNSUSPECTING MAN UP ON THE STAGE AND PUTS HIM IN A COMPROMISING
POSITION WITH A NUMBER OF SCANTILY CLAD LADIES.
DAMIAN WAS THE UNSUSPECTING MAN.
>> James: HE GOT DRUG UP ON STAGE?
>> DO YOU REMEMBER THIS?
>> SOME OF IT.
>> IT WAS TERRIFYING!
I GOT SHOVED UP ON STAGE AFTER A FEW BEERS WITH THE CURTAINS
CLOSED BEHIND ME.
TO BE GREETED BY FIVE WOMEN TWIRLING NIPPLE TASSLES IN
DIFFERENT DIRECTIONS.
AND A GUY THAT WAS THAT TALL GOING "GET ON THE BENCH!
GET ON THE BENCH!
KNEEL ON THE BENCH!
KNEEL ON THE BENCH!" WHAT DO YOU MEAN KNEEL ON THE
BENCH!
I DON'T WANT TO KNEEL ON THE BENCH!
HE'S LIKE, "KNEEL ON THE BENCH!" I WAS DESPERATELY THINKING WHAT
ELSE COULD POSSIBLY HAPPEN NEXT?
I RAN OFF THE STAGE STRAIGHT UP.
THEN I FOUND A LADDER.
I FOUND MYSELF ALL THE WAY UP IN THE LIGHTING RIG AS THE CURTAINS
CAME UP.
>> THE CURTAINS WERE CLOSED FOR AGES.
THIS GUY WENT AWOL.
ME AND DOMINIC KNEW WHAT WAS HAPPENING.
WE JUST LET IT HAPPEN.
>> SO THE CURTAINS -- >> WE WEREN'T GOING TO SAVE
OURSELVES.
>> James: YOU'VE GONE ON THE SHOW.
THE SHOW CARRIED ON.
HOW DID IT GET ON FROM THERE?
>> I'M NOT GOING TO TELL YOU WHAT THE SHOW WAS.
I'M GLAD I WAS NOT STILL KNEELING ON THE BENCH.
I'LL TELL YOU THAT MUCH.
>> James: YOU'RE ONE OF THE WORLD'S MOST FAMOUS RED HEADS?
THIS HAS BEEN CEMENTED -- THIS HAS BEEN CEMENTED, BECAUSE YOU
GRACE THE COVER OF THE COLORING BOOK!
[ APPLAUSE ] WHEN YOU THINK OF THE OTHER
GINGERS, THEY COULD HAVE CHOSEN -- THIS MUST BE THE HIGHEST
HONOR OF YOUR CAREER TO DATE, RIGHT?
THIS BOOK COMES WITH ONE COLORING PEN, YES!
>> IT'S ORANGE.
>> James: YOU'VE GOT PRINCE HARRY.
>> I GIVE THIS TO MY GODCHILDREN AS CHRISTMAS PRESENTS AS A JOKE.
I REPEAT IT YEAR AFTER YEAR.
WOULDN'T YOU LIKE TO BE A RED HEAD?
IT'S GREAT FUN BEING A RED HEAD.
>> James: YOU'D BE A REALLY GOOD RED HEAD ACTUALLY!
>> I MEAN.
I MEAN -- I DON'T SEE WHY EVERYONE DOESN'T WANT TO BE A
RED HEAD AFTER ALL!
>> James: I'LL TRY IT.
HEY.
>> PUT IT BACK IN THE BOX.
>> James: REALLY -- >> LITERALLY, WOW!
>> I DON'T KNOW.
>> James: TO ME, I FEEL LIKE I'M A SEXUAL BEING.
>> I -- >> James: CAN I SEE WHAT I
LOOK LIKE?
NO.
THIS IS BAD.
>> IT'S THE BEARD WITH THE -- >> TO BE HONEST, LET'S BE
HONEST, IT'S THE FACE.
I'LL LOSE THIS.
NOW, RUTH, WE HAVE TO CONGRATULATE YOU ON THE
INCREDIBLE SEASON OF "THE AFFAIR!"
[ CHEERING AND APPLAUSE ] I WATCH THE SHOW.
IT'S SO BRILLIANT.
YOU'RE TERRIFIC IN IT.
FOR ANYONE WHO DOESN'T KNOW, WHAT CAN WE EXPECT THIS SEASON?
>> MORE AFFAIRS.
MORE DRAMA.
MORE LOVERS.
MORE DRAMA.
LIKE MAJOR DRAMA.
THERE'S ALWAYS SOMETHING THAT GOES ON.
SOMEONE GOES MISSING THIS YEAR.
>> James: WHAT?
WHO?
>> ONE OF THE MAJOR CHARACTERS!
>> James: SHUT THE FRONT DOOR!
>> NO.
I'M BEING TOTALLY HONEST.
>> James: GOES MISSING OR HAS BEEN MURDERED?
>> YOU HAVE TO WATCH IT, WON'T YOU, AND SEE.
