-Welcome to the show.
Minka, how are you? Everything good?
-I'm good. How are you? -I'm doing good.
I want to ask you a question about this whole --
this -- this egg thing that's happening.
-Yes.
-Walk me through this and what's happening.
-Well, I had a game night at my house a few nights ago.
-Sure. -A really big one.
And I woke up in the morning,
and there was a note on my mirror in the bathroom
that said, "I've left the building. Egg."
I didn't know what that was.
And then later on,
I got a text from a phone number I didn't recognize that said --
that was just a picture of an egg that I recognized
with the Empire State building in the background.
-Yeah, we have the photo here.
So, now you -- -And I knew that egg.
And so I went into my house where that egg usually is,
and it was gone.
And I wrote back, "Who is this?"
No response.
"Hello." No response.
And then after a little while, I got another text...
of it in a New York City cab.
[ Laughter ]
-So someone -- someone is -- is -- has stolen your egg.
-Yes! So I'm texting all my friends
that were at my house the night before.
Like, "Are you any of you in New York right now?"
And everyone's like, "No, what are you talking about?"
And then I'm texting this number back.
It's not responding.
Finally, hours later, it responds again saying,
"Sorry, I don't think the egg will be returning.
It's starting to enjoy the attention."
[ Light laughter ]
Oh, no, no, no. Another one of it --
Another one -- I think someone's playing pool.
Yes, it's at a pool table.
-Whoever's doing this is genius.
So it's at a late-night pool --
It's like a pool shark or something.
-Yes. I'm like, "Who is this?"
-It's in danger right now. I mean, this is --
-And also, this is, like, a nine-pound marble egg.
-What? -What is happening?
And I have no idea who has it.
-I think it's genius.
So no one's -- no one's copping to it.
-No, I'm not even annoyed. I'm really amused.
And also, just -- It has to be someone I know.
-Yeah. -But I have no idea who it is.
And then -- And then I get that text saying,
"It's enjoying the attention."
I'm like, "What attention?"
And then a few minutes later I get this video.
-Do we have the video here? -Yes. I think so.
-All right, let's look at the video.
[ Crowd chanting "Egg, egg!" ]
[ Crowd cheering ]
[ Cheers and applause ]
Whoever's doing this is a genius.
What is, "Egg, egg, egg"?
-It's just, like, the egg.
So, by then -- by that video,
I knew immediately that it was my friend Brian.
He's part of a duo comedy sketch --
comedy sketch duo called BriTANicK.
And they -- I knew they had a show that night.
He had left early from the party to catch a red-eye
so that they could be at the show the next night.
And so I knew it was him. -Yeah.
-We do pranks on each other all the time.
And he hasn't given it back.
He's playing coy, like he doesn't know where it is now.
So he's out of town. So his friend --
I took the opportunity to be in New York today.
-Yeah. -His friend let me into --
His roommate let me into his apartment
so that I could steal something of his.
And his apartment is so bare,
I couldn't really find anything fun to take.
So I took something I knew he needed.
[ Light laughter ]
I took his shower apart.
[ Laughter and applause ]
-That is genius. And you're not kidding.
-No. -What is his name?
-Brian. -Brian.
-Brian McElhaney. -We want that egg back.
Because you actually brought video of his bathroom.
Look at your bathroom right now, Brian.
[ Laughter ]
Hey. That is awesome.
-Don't mess with me.
-Don't mess with Minka Kelly, man.
That is the greatest thing ever. -Thanks, thanks.
-Brian, you're going to get that egg back.
I want an update on that. -Yes.
-Let's talk about "Titans."
Congrats on this. -Yeah, thank you.
-That's a big deal, DC Universe. -It's fun, yeah.
-Did you ever think you would ever play a superhero?
-No, I didn't. No, I didn't.
-Is it fun? Do you enjoy it?
-It's so much fun. I love it.
-Who do you play?
-I play Dove. Dawn.
I'm part of a duo called Hawk and Dove.
-He's the avatar of chaos and war.
I'm the avatar of peace and order.
Balance each other out.
Her in particular, she's very warm and kind and nurturing
while also a badass and can take out bad guys.
And also sometimes,
Hawk is the damsel in distress as opposed to me.
-Yeah. -Which I love.
I love showing that a woman can be both things,
that those two things are not mutually exclusive.
A lot of times, you see a female playing one or the other.
And so being able to do both is really fun.
-Well, you're phenomenal. I want to show everyone a clip.
Here's Minka Kelly in "Titans."
Take a look at this.
-Aw, hey, pal. No, that's --
We don't have to do that.
Hey.
[ Grunts ]
Aah!

-My hero.
-That is how you do it!
That is how you do it right there.
Minka Kelly, everybody.
