Elizabeth Banks Returns

**Elizabeth Banks** (0:03)
Hi, my name is Elizabeth Banks, and I feel blessed about being Conan O'Brien's friend.

**Conan O'Brien** (0:13)
You are a terrific actress.

**Elizabeth Banks** (0:15)
Thank you. That took a lot.

**Conan O'Brien** (0:17)
You might be the best. Hey there, welcome to Conan O'Brien Needs a Friend. I'm sitting here with Sona Movsesian. Blessed to be sitting with you, Sona.

**Sona Movsesian** (0:47)
Hey, that's nice.

**Conan O'Brien** (0:48)
And also filling in for Matt Gourley is our trusty David Hopping.

**David Hopping** (0:53)
Hello, also blessed.

**Conan O'Brien** (0:54)
Also, oh yeah, sure.

**David Hopping** (0:55)
You're also blessed to be sitting here with me too.

**Conan O'Brien** (0:57)
I think you're more blessed to be with me. But anyway, you're hanging on by a thread. We have something to talk about today, which is Sona apparently, and I have not talked to her about this yet, but she told me that she had a very intense fracas, it's a word you don't hear much, on the street with somebody. And I want to hear what happened. Tell your tale, Sona, tell your tale.

**Sona Movsesian** (1:21)
It was not a pretty sight. So sometimes, look, sometimes when I'm walking Oki, I have her leash.

**Conan O'Brien** (1:27)
Let's slow things down a bit. Oki is your dog.

**Sona Movsesian** (1:28)
Oki is my dog. I'll take her off the leash for a little bit of the walk. A lot of people do it, cops have driven by, nobody cares. But this one day I'm walking by this guy's house and I have my headphones in and I hear him just like talking to me. And I take off my headphones and I turn around and he's filming me and he's going, walking your dog off a leash is a crime, you C word.

**Conan O'Brien** (1:52)
What?

**Sona Movsesian** (1:53)
And then I'm not kidding.

**Conan O'Brien** (1:55)
Wait, don't move past that. He called you the C word?

**Sona Movsesian** (1:57)
He called me the C word like 45 times.

**Conan O'Brien** (2:01)
Wait, what?

**Sona Movsesian** (2:02)
I'm not even kidding. It was like this crazy man. And the thing is like I was shocked the first one I turned around and then I turned around and I was just like, fuck you. And then I start screaming at him and he's yelling at me, calling me the C word over and over and over again. And then at one point and Oki was such a dick for this.

**Conan O'Brien** (2:20)
Oki's still there.

**Sona Movsesian** (2:21)
She's still there.

**Conan O'Brien** (2:22)
I thought Oki had left and would got on a flight or something.

**Sona Movsesian** (2:26)
She did not like the vibes. So she starts walking into the street and it makes me look bad. Cause she's like, I'm like, yeah, he's like, he was walking a dog is off this leash is a crime. You see where like, he's like foaming at the mouth. And then Oki walks in the street and he goes, look, your dog's going to die and I'm going to help kill it.

**Conan O'Brien** (2:47)
What?

**Sona Movsesian** (2:48)
Yeah. And he's saying this crazy, crazy stuff to me.

**Conan O'Brien** (2:51)
Is this man's had a break of some kind?

**Sona Movsesian** (2:54)
I don't know what's going on. I have no idea. But of course, like instead of just being like, sir, you need to calm down. I yelled back at him and I'm just calling him the F word. I'm saying he's an old, pathetic loser. Like I'm saying all this awful-

**Conan O'Brien** (3:09)
And because you run hot, I've been with you. When Sona sees red, it happens instantly.

**Sona Movsesian** (3:16)
Yeah.

**Conan O'Brien** (3:16)
And I remember a time, I'm sure we talked about it years ago, when you and I were in, we were in New York and we were at, I think, Sarah Baths or something on the Upper West Side.

**Sona Movsesian** (3:27)
Yes.

**Conan O'Brien** (3:28)
And we were with a friend of yours. Yes. And an old man across the room shushed us because we were talking a little loudly. And you, I saw your pupils disappeared and your eyes were just all white. And you were like, excuse me, excuse me. And he was like, too loud. And you were like, you think I'm too fucking loud? And I'm just, the whole time I'm thinking, oh, this is page six in the post, because I'm sitting here like an idiot.

**Sona Movsesian** (3:55)
Yeah.

**Conan O'Brien** (3:55)
And I was trying to calm you down and you only get angrier. You went a little crazy too. So this guy, he yelled at the wrong person.
