Nicole Kidman, Henry Golding, and Murray Bartlett star in ‘Nine Perfect Strangers’ together—but have they moved past the “strangers” phase enough to spot when someone’s lying? From jumping over sleeping rattlesnakes to eating pygmy elephant mushrooms, these co-stars put their poker faces to the test. Watch as Henry tries to convince the group he used a fake toilet on the ‘Crazy Rich Asians’ set, Nicole claims she had a number one song on the UK charts, and Murray recounts his time as a dancing hedge at the Met Opera. Nicole thinks she’s hopeless at this game—but she still wants every wild story to be true.

00:00Why is there a pander in it?
00:01Because there's pandas in it, Nicole!
00:04I'm dodgy, dodgy.
00:06Ah, okay, that changes things.
00:08Where is the lie?
00:23Preliminary evidence.
00:24I have had a number one song on the UK charts.
00:30I ran my first marathon last year.
00:35I get a thrill jumping over sleeping rattlesnakes.
00:39When have you jumped over sleeping rattlesnakes?
00:42Where and when?
00:43When I'm running or on a hike.
00:46In Australia, I can definitely...
00:47No. We don't have rattlesnakes.
00:49No. No, you don't?
00:50Oh, that's true.
00:51No. No.
00:52No?
00:53LA.
00:53LA?
00:54Yeah.
00:55What was your number one hit?
00:57It was a song with Robbie Williams.
00:59It was a Christmas number one, which was a really exciting thing.
01:02I know that.
01:02I do know that.
01:03Yeah.
01:04Um, what was the other one?
01:05I ran my first marathon last year.
01:08Where was it?
01:09It was in New York City.
01:11Okay.
01:14That was a pregnant pause.
01:16Mary!
01:16I remember the song.
01:21I remember the song too.
01:22Um, the jumping over rattlesnakes.
01:24What was it called?
01:25What was the song called?
01:26Whoa.
01:27Oh, I can't remember, but I remember seeing the...
01:29The music video.
01:30Yes!
01:30Yeah.
01:31You two are so lovely together.
01:33Yeah, it was so great.
01:34Don't worry.
01:35What was...
01:36You know the lie.
01:38Get to the lie.
01:43The lie is the marathon because there was a wonderful pregnant pause.
01:48What do you think, Henry?
01:49You surmised out of all of that, so you...
01:51I think it's the marathon.
01:53You're too quick.
01:58You're too good.
01:59If I've not run a marathon, I will never run a marathon.
02:03I couldn't bear to run a marathon.
02:06But this is a testament to you because you're a terrible liar.
02:08Yeah, so that's good, right?
02:09Yeah, it's a great thing.
02:10We're ending on a positive.
02:11So now ask me another question.
02:13Anything you want to know.
02:24Okay.
02:24Good luck.
02:27I once juggled panda poo at a zoo in Hong Kong.
02:32I once tried to get high on mushrooms growing out of pygmy elephant dung.
02:37Mmm.
02:39Mmm.
02:40Yum.
02:42Yummy.
02:42Exotic.
02:44I once mistook an onset toilet for a real toilet.
02:50Where was the onset toilet?
02:52Uh, it was on a set in Singapore.
02:56Okay, what were you doing?
02:57What was that?
02:57Crazy Richie.
02:57Sort of.
02:58Ah, okay, okay.
03:00Yeah.
03:01That was my first movie, so...
03:02Yeah.
03:03Yeah, yeah.
03:04That's true, that's true.
03:06How did you come to juggle panda poo?
03:09I was working behind the scenes at Ocean Park Zoo in Hong Kong.
03:15Behind the scenes as a...
03:16Well, I was, I was, I was a...
03:18Ocean park, there's no...
03:19Yeah.
03:20Ocean is fish.
03:21Well, it's...
03:22Why is there a panda in there?
03:23There's a panda in there, Nicole?
03:25Um...
03:27Dodgy, dodgy.
03:28What was the other one?
03:29I once tried to get high on mushrooms growing out of pygmy elephant dung.
03:33Did you grow them yourself, or?
03:34No, I was tracking pygmy elephants in the Malayan jungles.
03:38Absolutely not.
03:39Pretty dodgy.
03:40It also is like...
03:41It sounds like a makeup thing that relates to the show.
03:43You know what I'm saying?
03:44He's trying to be quiet.
03:45Well, I wanted a theme.
03:46Okay.
03:47Ahhhh!
03:48I wanted a theme.
03:50I think we might have an answer.
03:52I can see Henry doing all of these things.
03:58Yeah!
03:59I'm like...
04:00That's what makes it really difficult.
04:01The on-set toilet, I feel like that would be so embarrassing.
04:04Definitely.
04:04I feel like he would have told us, but I could see that that could have been.
04:08I think that's true.
04:09The...
04:10Panda poo?
04:11Well, it sounds so outlandish that it has to be true.
04:15I feel like that could be true, and Henry lived in that part of the world, like, for a long time.
04:20It's just the ocean situation.
04:22Right.
04:23And the panda swimming.
04:25Yeah, I know.
04:26Yeah, what's a panda doing next?
04:28I mean, Hong Kong, like, China, national animal panda.
04:31Oh yeah, I love pandas.
04:32There you go.
04:33But then I think the mushroom one sounds suspicious because it's too related to the show.
04:39Maybe that's why I included it.
04:41Listen, are you allowed to be, like, baiting us?
04:43We do off track.
04:45But also, when we asked you about it...
04:47Because you're very convincing.
04:48Yeah, exactly.
04:49But when we asked him about it, he said,
04:51well, you know, I had to, like, create some sort of very...
04:54Like, it sounded like he, like, curated it.
04:56Yeah, yeah.
04:57I don't know, what do you think?
04:57Yeah, I'm gonna go with you.
04:58Okay, the mushrooms?
04:59Yeah, these folks.
05:03The false one was mistaking an on-set toilet for a real toilet.
05:10I am so bad at this.
05:12I am so bad at this.
05:14But it was close to being, like, that's very easily done.
05:17Very easily done, but that's why you're so clever.
05:20Because you made the thing that, yeah.
05:22Everything else was true.
05:23Yeah, so the mushrooms and the panda.
05:25Everything else was true.
05:26Wow.
05:26Very impressive.
05:27In my travel show host days, I got up to some crazy stuff.
05:32Yeah.
05:33Okay.
05:41Oh, I believed it.
05:42That was really up, yeah.
05:43So good.
05:44That's why.
05:45Where is the lie?
05:47Okay.
05:48Preliminary evidence.
05:50I was an amateur surfer.
05:54My brother once knocked my front teeth out with a hammer.
05:56I was a dancing hedge at the Met Opera.
06:02These are impressive.
06:03I hope they're all true.
06:06Explain the dancing hedge.
06:07I had just arrived in New York and I was looking for cash jobs and, um, I met someone.
06:13You paused.
06:15I met someone.
06:16You're just getting back at me.
06:19I met someone who worked at the Met and they had these jobs as extras at the Met and I, my first
06:24job was dancing, um, as a hedge in an opera.
06:27Okay.
06:28And that was your first job, did you say?
06:31That was my first, like, my first, uh, you know, assignment working as an extra at the Met.
06:36Show us your teeth.
06:38Show us your gums.
06:44And how old were you?
06:45I was four.
06:47Okay.
06:47So that were my baby teeth.
06:48Oh, baby teeth.
06:49So you got some new ones.
06:50Yeah, yeah, yeah.
06:50Yeah, that sounds true.
06:52What was the alarm?
06:53Uh, I was an amateur surfer.
06:57You grew up in, um, Perth.
06:58Gold Coast?
06:59No, Perth, West Michigan.
07:00Yeah, yeah, yeah.
07:01That could be believable.
07:02I, I, I'm, I'm absolutely hopeless at this place.
07:05I'm going to be passing it off in a year.
07:12So what do you think?
07:12I mean, I like the surfer.
07:14I kind of believe he's got kind of surf fire, like Kelly Slater kind of.
07:17Right, yeah.
07:17You know what I'm saying?
07:18Yeah.
07:19The only thing about the Met Gala is that that was like his first job.
07:23Like, when?
07:24Was it the Met Gala?
07:25No, it was the Met Opera.
07:26The Met Opera.
07:27Ah, okay.
07:28That changes things.
07:30The two front teeth I can wholly believe.
07:32My brother broke ribs.
07:33Like, give us a hint.
07:37I'm leaving it all to you because I'm not good at this.
07:40I think the lie, and I hope you're on board with me for this.
07:44Anything.
07:45It's the surf because it's, it's a little too obvious, you know,
07:48because you associate surfers with Australians.
07:51Yeah.
07:52It's too true to be true.
07:53It's like the marathon one for me.
07:56Well, I don't know.
08:00Yeah, so this surf, this surf.
08:02Yeah, let's do this surf.
08:07Correct.
08:08Oh!
08:09You're very good at this.
08:11You're very good at this.
08:13I'm thinking as a deceiver.
08:14Excellent.
08:15Yes, brilliant.
08:17I'm not good at deceiving.
08:18Huh?
08:18You and me both.
08:19No!
08:22I win that in its totality, don't I?
08:23Yeah, you're a good liar and you can pick the lie.
08:25And you can pick the lie.
08:26Just good, just really good.
08:29Congratulations, Henry.
08:30Thanks guys.
08:31Fun game.
