-Welcome back to "The Tonight Show."
We're about to play a game called Box of Lies.
[ Cheers and applause ] But I'm gonna need some help.
You can see her in the new movie "Leave the World Behind"
in select theaters now and on Netflix this Friday.
Please welcome Julia Roberts!
[ Cheers and applause ]
♪♪
Now, here's how it works.
We have nine mystery boxes
containing objects no one has ever seen before.
On your turn, you pick a box,
take out the object, and describe it to your opponent.
Then they have to guess if you're lying
or telling the truth.
We'll play three rounds.
Julia, you pick the first box.
-Number five!
-What -- Okay.
[ Audience shouting ]
-You can act like it's heavy. You can act like it's light.
Ooh, this is good. Ooh. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!
Ooh. There's something alive. There's something alive in it.
Okay. Wow. Okay.
The game has begun. Here we go.
Okay, open up the flap,
and then you can put it out up here in this part.
-This is exactly -- That's --
You know what's funny? I had a dream recently.
[ Laughter ]
It's so funny. -Really?
-Yeah. -You had a dream recently,
and this had something to do with your dream?
-Yes. -That's so interesting to me.
And how would you describe that dream?
-Well, holiday-themed. -Okay.
And I was thinking about being on the show.
-Yeah-huh.
-And it is a picture frame made of peppermint candies
with a picture of us from the last time I was on the show,
and we looked a lot better then.
[ Laughter ]
And I'm just wondering if -- if this is a Christmas gift
that I get to take home with me.
-Hm.
[ Audience awws ]
[ Laughter ]
-You have a very honest face.
But you're...
[ Laughter ]
Now I don't -- Now I'm not sure.
You're also a good actor.
Oh, my God. Oh, my God. This is amazing.
Uh, I'm gonna say --
[ Laughs ] You flicked the ash.
I'm gonna say you told the truth.
Oh, my God.
[ Sad tuba plays ]
Oh, my God. Do you know what this is?
Oh, my gosh. This is pretty good.
This is Alf -- This is Alf on the Shalf.
-That's what I -- Ohh!
Alf on the Shalf! -Alf on the Shalf.
-Oh.
-I think that's what they were going with.
I don't know. I didn't write that.
Alright. Here we go. You got the point for that one.
It's time for me to pick a box.
[ Audience shouting ]
I'm hearing 2.
-It might be heavy! -No, it's not.
It's really, really light. It's really light.
Like feathers! Who knows if it's empty?
-Who knows anything anymore? -I don't know anything anymore.
What's happening?
Uh-huh. Okay.
[ Audience oohs ]
Oh. Uh-huh.
[ Laughter ]
I'll just be straight up.
Why -- Why -- Why -- Why play games?
-Why prolong? -Why play games?
We're having fun. We're living life.
Let's just be honest with each other.
It's a hot tub.
There's five Barbie dolls in there.
And the heads are George Santos.
-Ooh.
[ Laughs ]
-That's what it is. It's a hot-tub party.
It's a Barbie hot-tub party, George Santos style.
-Barbie Santos.
-[ Laughs ] It's Barbie Santos. Yes.
-I think I went there once. -Yeah.
-South -- It's way in the south.
-Yeah. I'm going -- I'm going -- I'm going this holiday.
Oh, it's way in the south. Oh.
-Have you been to Barbie Santos?
Yes, the surf there is incredible.
-Yes, yes. -Incredible.
You have to try the margaritas.
-Oh, you have to go to Barbie Santos. Yes.
-Um, I don't think you're telling the truth.
-You think I'm making it up?
-I think you are a box of lies.
-[ Laughs ]
You are correct!
♪♪
Just for Grinch. It's hair dye.
This is hair dye for the green Grinch.
[ Laughs ] "Just for Grinch."
Very niche audience.
Okay. Let's do one more.
But this round, Julia Roberts, is worth 10,000 points.
You are up.
What number would you like to choose?
[ Audience shouting ]
Eight! Ooh.
-Oh...
Whew! Thank goodness for that.
-I know. Wait. That looked a little heavy there.
-For 10,000...points. -Points.
That's right. That's right. Bragging rights.
-That I can spend at the bar in Barbie Santos.
-In Barbie Santos. [ Laughs ]
The sun just -- It just hits different.
-I am so filled with joy right now.
-You really are? Okay. -Yeah.
-I'd like you to be filled with joy
because you're my guest,
and I want my guest to be filled with joy,
so this is fantastic.
-This is something that...
um...
makes me think of my childhood...
-Uh-huh. -...in Smyrna, Georgia.
-Oh. That's right. Yeah. Grew up in Georgia. Yeah.
-I grew up in Georgia.
And my mother, whilst an incredible cook,
did from time to time fall prey to us
begging for canned yummy things in the grocery store.
-Hm. Oh...
But don't say peaches, of course.
-No.
-And I'm gonna say that this is a can of...
delicious...
beef-flavored...
noodly goodness.
-Beef-flavored goodness?
-Noodly goodness.
-Noodly goodness. Is it Chef Boyardee, perhaps?
-I think we'll split the points
because it's Christopher Meloni's
Baloney-Flavored Beefaroni.
[ Laughter ]
-I like the way you say that.
"Christopher Meloni's Baloney-Flavored Beefaroni."
We'll split the points. First time ever.
Thank you, buddy. Julia Roberts!
That's -- That's a star right there!
We're talking to Julia after the break.
Stick around, everybody!
