Conan: Folks, my next guest tonight just finished the tenth grade, as well as the new Steven Segal movie Under Siege II, Dark Territory. Let's take a look...
[Dialogue of Clip:]
[clip from the movie, Under Siege II, Dark Territory, where a porter on the train (Morris Chestnut) is putting away some brooms in the hallway of the train, and Katherine enters]
Katherine: Hi!
Morris Chestnut: Hey, what's up! [quickly shuts the door of the broom closet]
Katherine: What's in there?
Morris Chestnut: Uhh, it's top secret train security, I can't let you get in there.
Katherine: Oh come on, what's in there? [Katherine reaches for closet door]
Morris Chestnut: [playfully] No, no, [nudges her away], come on now, don't make me restrain you, because, uhh, I've been doing some working out, uhh, you see my chest and uhh, [flexes muscles] you know, it'll be real easy to do that.
Katherine: [smiling] Uh huh, okay, restrain me. [extends arm towards Morris Chestnut]
Morris Chestnut: You want me to restrain you...?
Katherine: Yeah!
Morris Chestnut: [laughs] All right, if you say so, but it's gonna be real easy...
[he grabs her arm, and Katherine then grabs his arm with her other arm and twists, pulling him down, then she twists even harder and he backflips and lands hard onto the floor... it is difficult to see exactly what she does]
Morris Chestnut: [grabbing his back] Okay...
[End Clip]
Conan: Please welcome back to our show, Katherine Heigl!
[Katherine walks out and shakes hands with Conan, then Robert Klein (the first guest), and then Andy Richter (sp?)]
Conan: [sits down and gestures toward Katherine] Are you a lot taller now than when you used to be?
Katherine: Well, I have boots with big heels on them. [lifts leg towards crowd, showing the heel]
Conan: [smirking] Yeah, I see that. [Katherine laughs] Well, we had you on the show a while ago, and uhh, this was about a year and a half or something, and you've grown really tall. You look very good.
Katherine: Thank you!
Conan: Nice to have you back here.
Katherine: Thanks. Victor Alfaro dressed me for tonight.
Conan: I'm sorry? [he didn't hear her clearly]
Katherine: Victor Alfaro dressed me for tonight. [she wore a tight black dress with knee high black boots]
Conan: [impressed] Oh! [pauses, then opens up his jacket breast and points inside] Sears! [audience and Katherine laughs] You like it?
Katherine: Yes, very nice! You know, I've got a good place for you, you should go to Calgors (sp?).
Conan: Calgors?
Katherine: Yes.
Conan: Done it.
Katherine: [smiling] Oh?
Conan: Yeah. That's were the pants are from. We don't match things here, it's very sad. [audience laughs] Now, uh, we just saw you doing some martial arts there, in this clip. Now did you actually learn martial arts for this?
Katherine: Yes, the stunt coordinator and I got together and learned all the moves. And by the end of the movie I was able to, uh, kinda kick Steven's ass...
Conan: [laughing] Wait a minute! You were good enough, actually, you could kick Segal's ass? Really?
Katherine: Yes I did! No, really, I beat him up, and he's humiliated, so he doesn't want to talk about it, I mean he won't mention it.
Conan: [laughing] I think you got him from behind, sounds like you hit him with a board or something... That guy can really fight. He knows how to drive the cartilage in your nose, up into your brain, killing you instantly. [Katherine and audience laughs]. He does! Believe me. He and I are the only two people in the world that know how to do that. [Katherine and audience laughs] He's quite and experienced killer. You must have really gotten to know Steven Segal then.
Katherine: Yeah.
Conan: What was he like?
Katherine: Steven was great, he was a lot of fun. You know, there was a lot going on during the time, and it was such a high budget film [60 million], that it was kind of a stressful atmosphere, but we were able to joke around a lot, and laugh, and it was fun.
Conan: Just maybe a little too much laughing and joking around, hmm?
Katherine: Well...
Conan: ...or just the right amount?
Katherine: [agreeing] Yeah, just the right amount.
Conan: So what was he like on the set? I mean, what kind of guy was he?
Katherine: Umm, okay, well, he's like 6'4''...
Conan: All right.
Katherine: ...so he's very large, umm.. [pauses]
Conan: [audience starts to laugh, sensing she's not giving the answer Conan was expecting] I've never gotten a response like this before!
Katherine: [laughing, and trying to resurrect herself] He's very scary!...umm...
Conan: You know, I'm not asking you to describe an assailant... This is an interview! [audience and Katherine laughs] We could get a charcoal sketch artist in here... no no no, the eyes are farther apart... [pointing] YES! That's him right there! [audience laughs] What I'm trying to get at here, is, could I take him...?
Katherine: [keeping a straight face] No. [audience laughs]
Conan: Thank you... What about me and Andy, he doesn't know we're coming, he's real tired, he's fumbling with his keys at his door, and we have sticks.
Katherine: Umm [laughs], no.
Conan: What if we add Robert Klein to that equation, and we have bricks and sticks...
Katherine: Umm...
Conan: And he's like been drinking.
Katherine: I don't think so, no. [laughs]
Conan: Okay, I'm gonna keep adding [Conan laughs], we're gonna be here another 40 minutes [audience laughs].
Katherine: Okay, maybe, maybe if your really lucky...
Conan: Okay, okay, I got it. I'm in a car, driving really fast. [Katherine laughs] He's tied to a tree... [audience laughs loudly] Yeah! I win!
Katherine: [talking over the crowd] Yeah! Then you'll get him.
Conan: We're actually...
Katherine: [interrupting] Wait, you have to be careful when he does like a spin move and jumps over the car, and lands behind you.
Conan: I've got that covered. Yeah, don't worry.
Katherine: Okay, just checking. Because he's done that...
Conan: This is a Dodge Dart I'm driving.
Katherine: [laughing] Okay.
Conan: 1972, okay, you can't jump over that thing.
Katherine: No.
Conan: Now, umm, where did you shoot this movie, by the way?
Katherine: We shot it on the Warner Brothers lot, on a sound stage. It was actually really fun, because, you know you go to the Commissary there, to eat lunches, and we had ER shooting next to us...
Conan: The people from ER were there?
Katherine: The people from ER.
Robert Klein: [adding] We shoot there too, Sisters.
Katherine: Oh.
Conan: Sisters is there?
Robert Klein: Same Commissary. Good chicken salad.
Katherine: [to Robert] Were you there when they were filming Outbreak...?
Robert Klein: Yes.
Katherine: ... and they had all of the victims from Outbreak coming into the Commissary to eat?
Conan: Oh gross! You mean the people with the fake sores and everything were sitting there like, saying...
Katherine: ... like dripping blood and saying, "Oh good, the pizza's good!" [audience laughs]
Conan: Oh, god! Really?
Katherine: It was great, yeah.
Conan: Oh, man, sounds like fun.
Katherine: Yeah, it was a lot of fun.
Conan: Yeah. We actually had someone else from this movie on, Sandra ["Sand"-ra] Taylor...
Katherine: Oh?
Conan: Or is it Sandra ["Sahndra"] Taylor?
Katherine: Oh... Sandra ["Sahndra"], Sandra Taylor.
Conan: [hits his head and makes a deep, football player type laugh] Stupid me! [audience laughs] I'm so dumb. Now she was on the show, she seemed very nice. Did you guys get along?
Katherine: Yeah, she was great, she was really sweet. It's funny, because she was on the cover of playboy, and...
Conan: Yeah, I got that...
Katherine: [laughing] You did...!
Conan: [audience laughs] Yeah. Research for the show we call it.
Katherine: [sarcastically and laughing] Right! It was funny because on the cover it said "Steven Segal's Leading Lady," and for a second there, I got really scared...
Conan: You thought it was you, really...
Katherine: I thought, "Oh my god, did they get those pictures...!" [audience and Conan laughs]
Conan: What pictures are we talking about here?
Katherine: [putting her hand up] No no, I'm just kidding.
Conan: Oh, okay, all right, you thought, "maybe I'm in there."
Katherine: No.
Conan: No. Yeah.
Katherine: Yeah.
Conan: [audience laughs, and then Katherine laughs] I don't know, you never know! These things happen. [audience starts to laugh louder, almost getting on his case]
Conan: [to audience] What? What?
Katherine: [to audience] Oh, you'd like that right!
Conan: [Andy says something to Conan in the background, and then Conan replies] Oh, me? No no no. That's Playgirl! [Katherine laughs] No. That's coming out in February people, watch for it. [audience laughs]
Conan: [to Katherine] It's me on a rug. [Katherine laughs] I look really stupid.
Katherine: That's really scary...
Conan: Yeah... Scary? Thank you...
Katherine: [reaches over and touches Conan's forearm] No!
Conan: Ahhhh!
Katherine: Not in a bad way!
Conan: You just broke my forearm, you are strong! [audience and Katherine laughs] You just snapped it like a twig! [Conan crosses his arms out in front of him, in a karate-like motion] And I almost drove the cartilage right in the center of your... oh man this got really nasty for a second. [audience and Katherine laughs] All right, so, we're agreed then, the movie is Under Siege II, it's out now, and you are going to, somehow, convince Steven Segal to get chained to a tree...
Katherine: Yes, so that you can all take him out.
Conan: Yeah, so we can run him over in a car. [audience laughs] And then I'll be victor...? [Katherine pauses and looks confused]
Conan: Victor...
Katherine: Oh...
Conan: I will win...
Katherine: Oh, right, victor. [audience laughs and Katherine makes a smirk, since Conan's phrase was difficult to understand until you think about it]
Conan: [sensing that he has just been made fun of by Katherine and the crowd, Conan just stares into the camera for about 5 seconds as everyone laughs]
Conan: Well, Katherine, thanks. I want you to come back, like in six months, you'll be like another 5 feet taller.
Katherine: Right...!
Conan: I'm convinced. Will you do that?
Katherine: Definitely, sure.
Conan: Come back. All right, Katherine Heigl everybody, Under Siege II, out now. [audience applauses]. We'll be right back.
