You have a lot of people working
across the country very hard
to educate people in each state
about what they need to do to register,
how they need to vote, it's really important.
and I thought it might be a nice treat
for some of these hardworking young people,
but I thought it might be fun
if we surprised a couple of them
with a little Zoom bomb,
and it might lift their spirits right now
because we know they're working so hard.
Would you like to do that?
That sounds like a great idea.
Hopefully after us,
we just have so many people who don't stay silent
when they're in the face of injustice.
When there are people in power who are doing wrong.
(bell ringing)
Everybody, excuse me.
I just want to say hello.
Conan O'Brien here,
I know the hard work that you're doing.
I mean, I'm really impressed with when we all vote.
I wanted to pop in and just very quickly
thank you all for all the work you're doing,
and we're gonna show this
on my late night program tonight.
I wish you'd cleaned up, some of you.
(laughing)
Would it have killed you to clean up?
I hope this is okay.
I wanted to say hello,
and if you're cool with it,
is it okay I have a friend
who just wanted to say a quick hi,
is that all right?
You just hold on a sec.
Yeah. Here we go.
(bell rings)
(group exclaims)
Surprise.
Oh my goodness.
(laughing)
What are you guys talking about?
Changing the world.
Mrs. Obama I was telling them,
I wish some of them had cleaned their rooms.
Wow, wow, wow.
Your rooms look perfectly clean.
I'm looking at everyone.
You guys look like you're doing good.
Hi,
I know that this group is working really hard
on getting the vote out and doing so much.
There's one woman here
who is about to get out of her car and do stairs.
Our team's a little bit out of shape from COVID
being quarantined all this time.
So we have a lot of stairs to make up.
Oh my God. Conan, you need to do that.
What are you talking about?
I mean, what makes you think I'm not
in perfect physical condition, Mrs. Obama?
Your hair is a little too perfect.
It's not look how's that?
Don't you like Conan's hair, you guys? I mean-
We love Conan's hair.
Thank you very much, I love it
during this incredibly tense time
in historic time in our nation.
We have the former first lady talking to you guys
who are working so hard to get the vote out,
and the conversation has gone to my hair.
(laughing)
I think that is absolutely ridiculous and absurd, Mrs.Obama,
I know she feels the same way I do
that we're just really grateful to you guys
for doing so much hard work.
Very impressive that you guys are managing
to stay so focused on getting people registered
and to get them informed.
And you're doing your classes online
and staying involved in your teams and running stairs.
And you know, I mean, it's just amazing,
but it's work that is so needed.
It is so important for you guys
to get your generation and your peers
and your family members focused on this election.
The work that you're doing couldn't be more important
and I'm so proud of you.
And it's like, when I see your faces,
that makes me wanna work harder
because I think you all deserve leadership
that reflects who you all are.
And you guys are good and smart
and kind and open and caring.
And you deserve leadership that reflects that,
so keep working hard please.
And we love you so much.
Conan aren't they? I mean,
duh.
Conan's speechless-
Yeah. I'm very impressed with these kids.
Again, I think some of the rooms could be cleaner,
but I'm gonna shut up about it.
Well, thank you all very, very much
and I leave the final sign off to Mrs. Obama.
Oh, you guys keep up the great work,
study hard, stay safe, wear your masks,
I'm gonna be your mother.
Eat your vegetables,
No. Okay.
and give your families my love
and your classmates.
Tell them to vote, Vote, vote, vote, vote, vote.
Okay?
Let's have a cheer for Mrs Obama
(all cheering)
