  • -Hi, guys.

  • This is an all-new episode of "Tonight Show: At Home Edition."

  • My name's Jimmy Fallon.

  • Welcome, and I hope everyone is doing the best they can.

  • Today is Thursday,

  • and we have Jennifer Garner on the show tonight.

  • Very excited to talk to her and talk about her charity

  • and what she's doing to help right now.

  • She's the best.

  • Speaking of ways -- things to help,

  • if you guys know any of the elderly,

  • any older people that may need help,

  • please call them, check on them, see if they need anything.

  • Deliver them food, if you leave it outside their door,

  • whatever they need, help.

  • Help an old person.

  • Not an old -- Help an old person.

  • Yeah, help an elderly person, yeah. Okay.

  • Alright, speaking of help,

  • I'm going to start the show with a monologue

  • and actually put up something

  • that might help my jokes land better.

  • "And here he is!

  • Jimmy Fallon!"

  • [ Recorded cheers and applause ]

  • Thank you. Thank you very much.

  • Thank you very, very much.

  • Welcome to "The Tonight Show: At Home Edition."

  • Guys, this is our third show from my house,

  • and things are getting crazy.

  • Today my kids joined SAG and asked for their own trailers.

  • [ Recorded laughter ]

  • Of course, we're doing the show from here

  • because of the pandemic,

  • also because I'm on house arrest for stealing a jet ski.

  • [ Laughter ]

  • That's right. It's day seven of being quarantined.

  • And you'll know I'm off my quarantine diet

  • when I can no longer fit down the slide.

  • [ Laughter ]

  • That's a callback from the other show.

  • Listen to this -- Everyone should have a slide.

  • I read that Emergen-C, you know, the drink powder,

  • they're telling people to not mix their product with booze

  • to make Quarantinis.

  • They were like, "If you want a Quarantini,

  • that's NyQuil, DayQuil, and a splash of Tide Pod."

  • [ Laughter and applause ]

  • Just a message to everyone at home,

  • do not drink a Tide Pod or mix that mix.

  • Do not try this at home. That was a joke.

  • Back to the monologue.

  • That's right, Emergen-C is warning people

  • not to mix their product with alcohol.

  • Instead, they recommend people do the responsible thing --

  • chop it up into lines and snort it.

  • [ Crowd booing ] Wow. Come on.

  • But here's some good news.

  • Today is the first day of spring.

  • I don't have a "yay"?

  • Oh.

  • "Yay!"

  • Today's the first day of spring.

  • [ Recorded ] "Yay!"

  • Yep, now Americans get to play a fun game --

  • allergies or coronavirus?

  • Isn't that fun?

  • I saw that there is now a way

  • people can virtually watch Netflix with their friends.

  • So if you couldn't decide what show to watch,

  • maybe adding four other people will help.

  • [ Laughter ]

  • Hey, this is interesting,

  • people are now watching YouTube videos

  • to take virtual rides of Disney attractions.

  • It's pretty realistic, actually. Before you watch it,

  • they still make you wait 3 1/2 hours.

  • [ Laughter ]

  • It's actually very realistic, because after you watch the --

  • Sorry. It's all wet.

  • It's actually very realistic,

  • 'cause after you watch the ride video,

  • Disney sends you a bill for $120.

  • [ Laughter and applause ]

  • And finally, the federal government

  • has pushed back a tax deadline by 90 days.

  • I think that's a good idea,

  • because, trust me, once I run out of toilet paper,

  • the next thing I'm grabbing is a stack of 1040s.

  • [ Laughter ] You guys have been great.

  • That's our monologue. Alright, thank you very much.

  • Guys, now we're going to do a bit on our show

  • called "Hashtags."

  • And this is a bit that requires your help, as well.

  • So thank you so much.

  • I asked you to use the hashtag #MyQuarantineInSixWords.

  • And that was my example.

  • I did, "Fine, you can paint Daddy's nails."

  • That was my example.

  • #MyQuarantineInSixWords.

  • Well, I was happy to say it was worldwide trending.

  • And it was trending in the U.S. I think number two, if I --

  • So that's pretty great.

  • So thank you so much for playing the game

  • and letting it trend. That's so cool.

  • And I'm so happy that the world watches our things.

  • So now let's get to "Hashtags."

  • Here is the first one. This is #MyQuarantineInSixWords.

  • Millemmial said, "Day one: ate all the snacks."

  • That is so true. [ Laughs ]

  • We did the same thing, too.

  • Just gone. Ice cream sandwiches.

  • This is from @emily-tweets.

  • "Longest day of my life, everyday."

  • [ Laughs ]

  • That's good.

  • This is from Rick, richachoubey.

  • He says, "Yes, Netflix, I am still watching."

  • Don't even ask at this point, Netflix.

  • Get off my back.

  • "Get off my back!"

  • [ Recorded ] Get off my back!

  • This one's from stephmerritt88.

  • "Flattening the curves, fattening my curves."

  • [ Chuckles ]

  • [ Laughs ]

  • That's a good one.

  • Let's do this one.

  • "That was the one. That was the one!"

  • [ Recorded ] That was the one. That was the one!

  • This one's from toriloomis9.

  • She said, "Expelled my kid from home school."

  • Well, I think that's pretty common right now.

  • That's a good one.

  • [ Chuckles ]

  • This is from MunaNawabit1.

  • She said, "Very close to befriending a volleyball."

  • [ Chuckles ]

  • #MyQuarantineInSixWords.

  • This one's from mike-t-barrett.

  • Says, "Funyuns for dinner. Ok, breakfast too."

  • [ Chuckles ] That's --

  • Oh, this one's from gumgumerson. We love gumgumerson.

  • Always sends us things. Thank you, Gum.

  • Gumgumerson says, "Toilet paper is our god now."

  • [ Laughs ]

  • I should say thank you to our -- my camera operator,

  • my wife, Nancy.

  • Thank you, Nancy... -You're welcome.

  • -...for being there and not laughing at not one joke.

  • Alright, here we go.

  • That was the one. That was the one!

  • This one's from RyanLaBarge.

  • He says, "Is 7 Hot Pockets too many?"

  • [ Chuckles ]

  • The answer is no.

  • Seven Hot Pockets is not too many.

  • This one's from SusanPickover.

  • Says, "This ends in divorce or murder."

  • Oh, come on, now.

  • [ Both laugh ]

  • Come on, now. That's very funny.

  • This one's from ElCapitanSaucey.

  • Oh, this is great. It says, "Is upstairs neighbor a tap dancer?"

  • [ Both laugh ]

  • [ Recorded laughter and applause ]

  • We had a neighbor upstairs in Brooklyn

  • that would chop pills every morning.

  • And here's our last one here for "Hashtags."

  • Says, "There's not enough wine for this."

  • How true.

  • That's our "Hashtags," everybody.

  • [ Recorded cheers and applause ]

  • Thank you very much for sending them in.

  • Guys, I had the pleasure

  • of talking to the great Jennifer Garner.

  • She's an awesome actor.

  • And her and her fellow actor teamed up, Amy Adams, teamed up,

  • and they did some amazing stuff.

  • So let's talk to Jennifer right now.

  • -Jennifer Garner, you're awesome.

  • Thank you so much for being a guest on our show.

  • I just want to start off by saying I hope you're safe

  • and everything's okay as far as these things are concerned.

  • I know it's crazy times, but you were the first person

  • to call to action after this, you know --

  • We self-quarantined, I think, seven days ago.

  • -Mm-hmm. -And over the weekend,

  • I'm trying to think of, what am I gonna do?

  • How can I do something to help everybody?

  • And I got a message from you and Amy Adams.

  • How did you get hooked up with Amy?

  • And explain, really, what the charity is, 'cause I loved it.

  • -Well, you're the coolest.

  • You were the first to jump on. You and Reese.

  • And, you know, if Reese is on something,

  • it's like, oh, forget it -- it's a movement.

  • You know what I mean? -Yeah, exactly.

  • -But having you made all the difference.

  • So, Amy called me Friday night, and she said,

  • "I want to do something to help feed kids

  • who are stranded with school closures."

  • 'Cause, you know, between 25 and 30 million kids

  • in the United States rely on school for food...

  • and free and reduced lunches, breakfast, backpack programs.

  • I was just in a school in Kentucky a couple weeks ago

  • with Save the Children where they opened their lunch

  • at the end of the school day,

  • and kids take home cartons of food.

  • So what's happening with those families,

  • as well as kids in urban settings?

  • And I said, "Okay, I actually --

  • If you really want to do this, I can --

  • Let's do it. I mean, let's do it."

  • But it's -- it's been

  • kind of non-stop since then and really great.

  • It's great to have a purpose right now.

  • -It's a lot of work, though,

  • I mean, to pull something like this off.

  • And you really did a great job.

  • I tell everyone the website is

  • savethechildren.org/ savewithstories.

  • -Yes!

  • -And we'll put a chyron up here.

  • So, it's savethechildren.org/ savewithstories.

  • And you have a bunch of friends and people

  • helping out, reading books to kids.

  • -People I'd never met before.

  • Our community is just so generous.

  • And, so, just -- "How can I help? What can I do?"

  • And we are getting rights to books.

  • So thank you for loaning us yours.

  • -I would read other ones, too. Let me know. I'm down.

  • -Oh, my gosh. Really? Oh, yeah. Please.

  • -Without a doubt.

  • -Would you read "Everything is Mama"?

  • I love that book so much.

  • -[ Laughs ] Two seconds. I will do it right now.

  • I cannot wait to do that.

  • -Great! Okay. Good. -I would love to do that.

  • How are your kids --

  • How are your kids dealing with everything?

  • -Thank you. I think I have the perfect-aged kids for this.

  • Because they're big enough to understand

  • and to have the conversations --

  • Like, we're built for challenge. We can do this.

  • We're a tough team.

  • Let's learn about a vacuum cleaner.

  • [ Laughter ]

  • But they're not so big that they're just like,

  • "Well, I don't care. I'm gonna go..."

  • You know, the hard thing are teens and early-20s people

  • and my parents.

  • My parents are the hard ones. -Yeah.

  • -I'm like, "Dad, Mom,

  • the world is shut down to keep you guys safe."

  • And they're like, "We think

  • we're going to go to Sam's Warehouse."

  • I'm like, "Oh, my gosh." -[ Laughs ]

  • -"Stay here! Stay home!"

  • -"Mom, you have to stay home!"

  • -"God. You got to get Amazon accounts.

  • And they'll send you stuff."

  • Everyone's been going to Amazon.

  • Now all of a sudden, we have to stay in,

  • and everyone wants to go out and buy stuff.

  • I'm like... -I know!

  • -It's just kind of wild.

  • You know, if you watch the news and all this stuff,

  • it's kind of, you know -- it's a downer sometimes.

  • And, you know, I know it's a serious thing.

  • But when you get to just kind of turn the TV off

  • and just hang out with your family

  • and do something or just appreciate where you are

  • and that you're all together, it's kind of something --

  • There's something cool about that.

  • -It's -- I mean, I have food. I have shelter.

  • I have -- My kids have online school,

  • so they are engaged in different ways.

  • We've been doing, like, a family Skype

  • with my sisters and parents at night, or Zoom.

  • So I have nothing to complain about or worry about,

  • and so it's actually been totally fine for me.

  • We have a job to do. We're doing it.

  • We're staying home. We're flattening that curve.

  • -I follow you on Instagram and all your socials,

  • and I do love following you.

  • I love your cooking shows that you do.

  • What -- What made you want to do that?

  • I mean, are you just a chef?

  • -No, I'm not a -- I'm so far from a chef.

  • But I learned to cook by watching people cook.

  • I've always been a huge Ina Garten fan.

  • "Barefoot Contessa." -Ohh.

  • -And before that, Martha Stewart.

  • And I still love Martha Stewart. But I love, you know --

  • I'm just a food -- a cooking-show junkie,

  • so I just want to -- -Did you like --

  • My grandma used to read me --

  • She would just give me, like, a cookbook when I was a kid,

  • and I used to just spend hours just looking

  • at the pages and just staring.

  • And I would go over and hang out with my grandma all the time

  • and just look at a cookbook.

  • And even if I didn't cook it, I'm like, "That looks good."

  • You know, I would try to look at the recipes.

  • So I always kind of liked it, I think, from my grandmother.

  • -Yeah, I do too. I always have a cookbook by my bed at night.

  • It's like what I -- what I read to fall asleep.

  • -[ Laughs ] That's the best.

  • -But yesterday we had -- my kids wanted hamburger buns.

  • And we had turkey meat.

  • They wanted hamburger -- turkeyburgers, whatever.

  • And so I just looked it up and made them.

  • And they were happy, and I felt, like, "Whoo!"

  • -You made hamburger buns?

  • -It's not that hard. It's just a roll.

  • -Really? -You could do it.

  • -Oh, my gosh. -I mean, you guys could do it.

  • -Alright, I'm gonna do it and I'll get back to you

  • and I'll find you and I'll do them.

  • -Okay.

  • -The other thing I wanted to say is the #Jenlookatme.

  • -#Jenlookatme.

  • -Yeah, there's a whole thing going on -- #Jenlookatme.

  • How did you come up with that and how -- did you --

  • are you happy with what you saw?

  • -Oh, I mean, 'cause you really think about it

  • and who is this -- who is this impacting?

  • Who's having to give up the most to stay inside?

  • And it's performers.

  • And it's kids who don't understand,

  • who are stuck at home, who should be --

  • who've worked really hard.

  • Think about when we drop out of the Olympics and those athletes,

  • it's just like, well, too bad.

  • But for kids who are about to do "Frozen"

  • or who are about to do -- I don't know.

  • It's a really big deal.

  • And high school seniors and they're just college seniors

  • who just -- the rest of their senior year is canceled.

  • So any way we can lighten things for them,

  • and it's so fun for me to watch at the end of the day.

  • It's really fun.

  • -I thought maybe we could end this interview

  • by doing a little thing from #Jenlookatme.

  • You used to play in high school, right?

  • -Oh, my gosh. Yes.

  • -There's got to be something --

  • Is there something lying around the house?

  • What did you play again? Was it -- Was it a horn?

  • [ Laughs ]

  • -Do you mean Sally the sexy saxophone, you flat alto?

  • From 5th grade?

  • -Wow, calling it out!

  • What do you -- what do you -- This is going to be so fun.

  • What do you think we could play? Because I have my guitar.

  • -First of all, I cannot believe you had Lin Manuel yesterday

  • singing "Dear Theodoja," by the way.

  • I mean, come on.

  • -Isn't he unbelievable? Right? He's amazing.

  • -You are unbelievable. -But this is gonna be fun.

  • I don't think anyone's really seen Jennifer Garner

  • play the saxophone, and this is gonna be super exciting.

  • -I played on the "Donny & Marie" show 20-plus years ago.

  • But I don't know. -Did you really?

  • That's fantastic! I love Donny and Marie!

  • -Love Donny and Marie.

  • Little bit country, little bit rock 'n roll.

  • Okay, alright, you ready?

  • -Wait, hold on.

  • Wait, hold on, I'm getting an intruder. Yes?

  • -Daddy, how do I change my character?

  • -You got to give me five minutes, okay, bud?

  • Then I'll be right in there. -[ Laughs ]

  • -Okay.

  • Alright, wait, we'll do it.

  • -They all wanted to come in,

  • and I was just like, "Don't you have online school?"

  • -[ Laughs ]

  • Exactly, just like go, run, run, run.

  • How about -- Should we do "Happy Birthday"?

  • Can you do that? Or no?

  • -A hand-washing song? -Yes.

  • We should do a hand-washing song.

  • ♪♪

  • I think I'm going to let you solo on this.

  • -Jimmy, no.

  • -I'll do percussion. I'll do percussion.

  • -Will you sing? Will you sing?

  • -Yes, for you, I will do anything.

  • Yes, of course.

  • -A one, a two. A one, a two.

  • -Wait, do I sing the lyrics to "Happy Birthday"?

  • -You can sing whatever you want.

  • -Okay. I'll switch it up a little bit.

  • Here we go. -Yeah, switch it up.

  • I can't sing and play at the same time.

  • -[ Laughs ] That's the next episode.

  • -Alright. -Here we go.

  • Happy birthday, wash your hands

  • Happy birthday, wash your hands

  • Wash your hands, wash your hands

  • Wash your hands and don't touch your face

  • Yes! Come on! -Yay!

  • -The greatest.

  • Jennifer Garner, you are awesome.

  • Guys, go to the website

  • savethechildren.org/ savewithstories.

  • There's another thing you can do.

  • What's the other thing you can do?

  • -Okay, you can also text the word "save" to 20222

  • for a one-time $10 donation.

  • -Come on. How easy is that?

  • Do it right now, guys. Get your phones out.

  • Phones are probably already out.

  • Just do it, guys.

  • Text "save." Let's do it.

  • -You're the best.

  • -You're the best, buddy. I'll talk to you soon.

  • -I love everything you're doing. I'll talk to you soon.

  • Thank you so much.

  • -Thanks so much, Jennifer Garner.

  • Hey, guys, I bought a tent

  • for my daughters to play in the yard with.

  • Someone on Twitter told me

  • that was a fun thing that their kids did.

  • So -- I'm not -- I don't camp.

  • I'm not a camper. I've read magazines.

  • They look like -- it looks like fun.

  • And I really did my research and got a pretty decent tent,

  • I think, and it arrived today from Amazon.

  • And -- so let's go -- let's go watch me pitch a tent.

  • Okay, I'm about to attempt to put together a tent.

  • I did a lot of research.

  • I went to a lot of tent websites.

  • Tent blogs, Tent Talks.

  • And I found, I think I found the right one,

  • which is the Coleman Elite with --

  • I don't know if that's the name of it.

  • I'm not a camper at all.

  • I'm from -- I was born in Brooklyn, New York.

  • My parents are from Brooklyn. They don't know how to camp.

  • They would never go outside at nighttime.

  • But I'm going to try to put this up for my kids.

  • I think I got too big of a tent.

  • It's like -- this is like 100 pounds.

  • So I'm imagining myself if I was camping,

  • what I would have with me, and that's a knife.

  • Look at this knife. It's unbelievable, right?

  • That's a -- yeah, it's a scary knife.

  • Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

  • Even though the box says "do not cut,"

  • how else am I going to open this thing? I mean, please.

  • Oh, I did cut into something.

  • 20-minute setup? That's nothing.

  • I can do that. Fits that...

  • I mean, I have a family of four, but I figure we can make room.

  • Look at how he's all exhausted, that kid.

  • Dad's like, "Go to bed."

  • 20 minutes?

  • Wish me luck.

  • Find the zipper on this.

  • Oh, you're kidding me. Another box?

  • I got to cut this one open, too.

  • 20 minutes, what do you --

  • That's another bag.

  • This is like a little bag. Probably for people

  • to hold beers when they're putting this together.

  • This is 20 minutes?

  • 20 minutes? Can I do this in 20 minutes?

  • All right, let's start the clock now. Here we go.

  • Three bags, kind of, four bags?

  • Very possible. I can do this. Very possible.

  • All right, so I saw the instructions here

  • but also in back I was looking how to do it,

  • and it's in Spanish.

  • And so I feel like that's a problem.

  • I'm going to have to call Lin back.

  • But then I saw there's one in English. Here we go.

  • All right, layout of tent looks pretty good.

  • And now I'm going to stake, put stakes in the --

  • in the position of where I want this to go.

  • But I don't have a hammer, so I'm going to use

  • the end of the knife.

  • I should get a hammer, right? Gosh.

  • I have a hammer here.

  • I got this for my wife years ago.

  • She's very crafty, but --

  • I forget who makes it but it says

  • "Hard Core Hammers" on top.

  • I don't think that's where I went.

  • In fact, don't Google "Hard Core Hammering."

  • Okay, so I got all the stakes into the ground.

  • And I didn't even have to use the hammer.

  • I just used my hands.

  • But I will use that knife for some good steaks --

  • [ Laughter ] For over at the Chop House.

  • "I'd like a steak, please.

  • I'll have it...medium,

  • because it's very rare when it's well done here."

  • [ Laughs ] Oh, my gosh.

  • Rare when it's well done.

  • Oh, God.

  • What do you guys think?

  • Good posish?

  • -Great posish.

  • -What do you think? You excited?

  • -Can I open this box up?

  • -Sure.

  • All right, so I've been here for probably

  • an hour and a half now.

  • And that's what I have so far.

  • No clue what I did wrong. Okay.

  • But gonna keep trying.

  • ♪♪

  • I think I did it.

  • That's as good as I'm going to get.

  • I'm out of breath.

  • I'm out of breath doing that. I got to clean all that up.

  • All right, back to you.

  • And I don't even know if this is usable.

  • I think it's going to rain once, and that's end of this thing.

  • And thank you to Franny for doing the logo for my show.

  • Guys, wash your hands, don't touch your face.

  • Stay safe. Good-bye, everybody!
