What's up kids at home? Here we are, on the final episode of Sincerely Me, the
Will Roland backstage at Dear Evan Hansen vlog-Stravaganza has come to an end, and
we've got an exciting episode full of great anecdotes. It's like a clip show.
You're gonna love it. Here we . You guys were here with
Laurie Dreyfuss. What do you what do you want to share with us on our final
episode of Sincerely Me, Laura? --Um I'll tell a funny story. One one time,
when I was on the stage with Mr. Benjamin Shiff Platt
--Oh, is he leaving --oh,
sadly he's leaving.
--Good riddance, I say! --Get him outta here!
--There we go. That's the attitude. --No, I would never say that.
I think my one of my favorite stories on stage was, he, it was at second stage, and
I thought he had a cold sore on his lip, and and it was even If I Could Tell Her,
and it was it turns out just a pimple, but I kept thinking it was a cold sore,
and so I was like trying not to kiss him the whole time, and like very at the very
end he like went to kiss me, and I like only gave him like half of my mouth, and
then I was panicking, and I was panicking, and then at the end of You Will Be Found
because I couldn't see him until the end of the Act one. We couldn't talk about it
and then at the end of You Will Be Found when we have to kiss, I was like barely
kissing him. And it's really embarrassing. And then and then it's like me telling
the story is embarrassing, like thinking about watching myself after this. A
Anyway um and then afterwards, he came up to me and he's like what did I do
something? And I was like, is that ? I'm really embarrassed. Is that a cold sore?
And then he's like no it's a pimple, and I was like oh.
--And that is how Ben Platt
infected Laura Dreyfuss with his pimple sores, which are not contagious, kids at
home. That's a biological fact, for you. Enjoy your salad. Nice onesie, Laura.
--Thank you.
--Mike Faist, here we are, it's our last episode of sincerely me. What do you want
to say man?
--Uh, well since it's our last episode, it's also our last week with Mr.
Benjamin Schiff Platt. --Who's that?
--Who cares? -- Yeah!
--It's been
quite a wonderful journey to do this show with you, and to create these
characters with you, and I only wish you the best of luck. You
will be very very deeply missed
--Wait are you saying the said Ben's watching it?
Sorry, sorry, ruined the moment.
--Seeya loser. --Cara Long. Here we are. Last episode
of Sincerely Me. What do you want to say
to the kids at home?
--My first appearance on Sincerely Me.
--Welcome to the vlog. It's been
great having you.
--Thank you. Bye.
I have a funny story about Benjamin shift Platt. Schiff, yes.
I thought it was like shift. -- Not like shift key.
--Yeah like all caps, return. --Ben Caps Platt.
--You don't even know his name! --I don't even know his name. I
have a story about how I was concerned about this young boy in rehearsals, and
did he know what was about to happen to him? And I just hoped that he was going
to be okay with everything that came his way.
This young young boy, this young talent, cuz I didn't realize he was already like
a movie star.
--I'm glad you took care of him Cara. I think he's gonna be okay. I
think he's whether they experience well.
--I do too. I really do. -- Well we'll see what happens. This
is probably it for him, I bet. Doesn't seem like he has a lot of possibilities
after this.
--Am I in this frame?
--You are now!
--Alright Krystolin, here we
are. Last episode of Sincerely Me. Welcome to the vlog. What would you like to say
to the kids at home?
--It's been really fun watching Will be so creative, and do such
an incredible work like that's it's also this is the last vlog on the last week
of Ben Platt's performances as Evan Hansen.
--This is it. This is the last the last episode, as it were.
--I'm not sad he's leaving at all. That's not TRUE! --Oh my god.
Everyone has said that. Everyone's been like good riddance! But then they don't
mean it.
--No, I mean it is sad because I put this down and not be rude.
It is sad because it's like it's weird watching a performer walk away from
something that they've created and molded to like be them, so it'll be it'll
be sad, but it'll also be nice because it's like I want him to rest and not
have to cry six times a week, so it'll be it'll be good to see him get some rest.
And also hang out with Noah and Taylor. Yay.
--Make new friends, keep the old.
--Make new friends, but keep the old. One is silver and the other's gold.
--Amen. It's our final episode of Sincerely Me.
What do you want to say to the kids at home about this process, about their
lives, about anything?
--Oh my Lord. I'm sweating already. I love this show. I hope that
you'll all have a chance to see it or listen to it or see some version of it
at some point because the message is extremely important. And this week is
Ben Platt's last week. Mr. Ben Schiff Platt.
--Haven't heard of him. The very
hairy armed. -- Oh Forbes 30 under 30
--Benjamin Schiff Platt. Yes, I know him -- So it's a huge
transition, and it's sad, and bittersweet, and also exciting for the new dude
that's coming in.

our family. It's gonna be great times. --Great times!

--Oh no. I he's given me the loveliest hugs
you ever get an opportunity, get a hug from Ben S. Platt.
--But ask, don't just, don't just hug him on
the street. --Yes, the opportunity
must come your way. You don't seize the opportunity. It must come to you.

--So you guys, here we are. It's the end of
the world...I mean the last episode of the vlog. I'm here with the
--Will Roland knows that I'm emotionally very sensitive this week.
--I'm here with two Evan Hansen's on
on one couch. --And he's fully taking advantage of me.
--One's emotionally stable, one is not. --Sounds like a viral video like
Evans, one couch. So I've been doing
these these vlogs for eight weeks now for the kids at home, and what would you
guys like to say to these kids at home maybe advice for their lives or some
sort of tips or maybe recipe suggestions? --Um.
--That's Greg. He gives us our mics.
--He's the best. --He is the best. We did miss him a lot.
--What was the, sorry. --We were asking... that's
totally fine. We're we're asking for life advice, or recipe suggestions, or
helpful hints. --Just general ones.
--Come in! --Danielle's all set.
-- Thank You Danielle! --That's Danielle, she didn't want
to be on the vlog. Aha! Got her!
--Okay recipes or advice
helpful hints, -- Tips and hints.
--Recipes. I know a great eggplant lasagna parm
situation. Take the eggplant take a mandolin slice
the eggplant super thing. --Lots of people have a mandolin.
--I had a terrible mandolin accident when
I was 20.
--Like a mandolin? -- I lost like a dime sized piece of thumb.
--Take your mandolin. Slice the eggplant real thin, and then
--Watch your hands. -- Watch your finger,
watch your digits. Then you're gonna batter, and you're gonna fry each little
thin slice of eggplants. You have delicious little crispy eggplant rings
and I don't know your then with some ricotta, some parm, and some red sauce. I
then bake that, and it's gonna be delicious.
--What are we baking in? Like a Pyrex?
--Yeah, a litte
Pyrex, a casserole dish, like however you are feeling.
--And is it a hot situation, like a 400? --Definitely. Yeah yeah probably 325-400
--Crisp up those edges. --Maybe like broil it
at the end, just make the light brown and crispy. Yum yum yum.
--And I have
great recipe for sushi. It's you go to your phone, you you scroll when you find
a little postmate square, where you click on it and then you type in Blue Ribbon sushi,
Or Haru on a strange day, Amber on a strange day, what have you
--There's gonna be the names of items that you might want. Click the ones you
do, and then order that food, and then it will --Tempura? That's a suggestion.
Avocado roll, just a classic. --I love I love the eel. I love
the barbecue sauce.
--And then it will show up at your door, and you can eat it, so.
--A Plus. Thank you for these tips and tricks Evan Hansen's of past present and future.
--You guys are like the ghosts that visit Scrooge, and I'm Scrooge today, so wave
goodbye to kids at home! Well kids at home there you have it.
That's some advice, that's some thoughts, some prayers, some tips and tricks, and
some messages to to you, and to each other here at Dear Evan Hansen. It's been
a lot of fun making this vlog. It's been a lot of fun first year here at Dear Evan
Hansen. It's been a lot of fun these last four years doing Dear Evan Hansen with
my friend Ben Platt, and hope you enjoy the rest of your lives on the Internet.
