Young Hollywood

We're on the set of Lab Rats, you're going to give us a tour.

Kelli Berglund

This. This is Kelli Berglund. Right now we are in the hallway with all the dressing rooms and next to the juicer. So, let me give you a little tour of all the dressing rooms here. Right here, we have Mr. Billy Unger's dressing room. I don't think he's here right now.

Young Hollywood

Nice chase. Right there.

Kelli Berglund

Maybe you shouldn't. You never know what's going on in there. I'm not going to intrude. Yeah, he plays Chase as you guys probably know. Surprisingly, the dresser was very clean as well. Not that I expected your dresser to be dirty, but you know, men, we're men.

Guest

It is funny because I am not the I'm not like a neat freak, but I also hate messy, like cluttered areas. So I'm just I'm in between.

Kelli Berglund

This is the best dressing room of the whole set. Mine. No, I I love my dressing room. I've decorated it really cute. Take a little peek inside. There's some colors, some nice warm, bright colors in here.

Young Hollywood

Welcome to the Berglund Spa.

Kelli Berglund

Berglund Spa. So, I like to feel very like relaxed when I come back into my dressing room, which is why I have the mood lighting and like the warm colors. And then we have Spencer's room right here, which is usually pretty messy. So, I'm not sure if we should go in there.

Young Hollywood

Yes, you mentioned Spencer's room is normally the messiest.

Kelli Berglund

Yes. This is so comfortable. That's the best thing in the world. It's the best thing ever. I wanted a bigger one, but they didn't think it was going to fit in my dressing room. And obviously it would have, cuz I had this much space but I'm tall.

Young Hollywood

Why would you ever need a bigger love sac than this?

Kelli Berglund

Because I'm tall. I I like it's it sometimes you sit on it.

Young Hollywood

Oh, no. You make me feel inferior about my height. We're going to the Great Room and they're in the middle of filming a scene. So, we're getting like exclusive behind the scenes look right now. What's going to say, hi to TJ.

Tyrel Jackson Williams

TJ! Say hi to the camera. Hi camera.

Young Hollywood

What are you doing right now?

Tyrel Jackson Williams

Uh, we're filming I'm filming a scene with the brilliant Skyler Flannigan. What are you doing?

Kelli Berglund

Since you won't let me steal stuff, I'm giving bionic house tours. You guys got to eat.

Tyrel Jackson Williams

Yeah, yeah, exclusive. And we're in the middle of it all right now.

Kelli Berglund

Yeah. I saw her steal something. Just saying.

Tyrel Jackson Williams

Just saying. Well, may or may not have taken a few things. And that wasn't part of the scene.

Young Hollywood

Bionic statement. Loving it. And how have things changed for Leo now, cuz since the last time I saw you it's now season 3.

Tyrel Jackson Williams

Yeah. You've obviously grown up, you're older. That happens.

Kelli Berglund

Yeah, he dresses differently.

Tyrel Jackson Williams

Does dress differently, yeah. Yeah, which I am a very big fan of. Um

Young Hollywood

Lovely. Lovely.

Tyrel Jackson Williams

But Leo is growing right a lot. Always sitting on this couch. The comfiest couch. There's the television. Apparently.

Young Hollywood

It is. I'm going to I'm going to try it. I'm going to try it.

Tyrel Jackson Williams

It's really comfy. And it's warm. It's very nice and warm and comfy. I feel that.

Young Hollywood

Where is this where is this couch from? We could give it a great plug right now.

Tyrel Jackson Williams

I don't know. Where's it from? I have no idea.

Young Hollywood

Okay. Let's make it IKEA.

Tyrel Jackson Williams

You'd have to ask set deck about that. Season 3 has literally been the most action-packed season by far. Right. We've had I mean, we've revealed so much about where the Lab Rats actually come from. Now you've found out who their real creator/father is. All this time you thought it was Mr. Davenport. Big big things. Yeah, like dropping bombs. You know what I mean? Like

Young Hollywood

Right. You never saw these things coming.

Kelli Berglund

Oh my wow. The tunnel that leads to the lab. This is it. Which isn't lit right now, because we're not filming in it, but some of the things are lit. We have all of our different consoles, we have our little sitting area. And then we have our capsules back here and all the different screens that we use for missions and stuff.

Young Hollywood

This is very technical. This is amazing.

Kelli Berglund

Everything's gotten bigger. I mean, we got a new lab cuz the season 2 finale the lab blew up. Um which is really intense. A lot of stuff that's like super intense, which is cool.

Tyrel Jackson Williams

Season 2, the finale, the old lab got blown up. Right. So now this is our new lab and it's way more spacious. We have a cute little sitting area, which we're always hanging out in as well. Um, you can just do a lot more in here. And I guess things like come out of the floor whenever we need them.

Kelli Berglund

There's a new bad guy. Okay. Who is just that. He is a very bad guy. Crane. Right? Crane. He's scary. I don't like him. We've had a lot of different fight scenes in here with Crane who's been after us this whole season. Um I hate him. I don't like him.

Tyrel Jackson Williams

I don't either. I don't think anybody likes Crane.

Kelli Berglund

No. He's a major bad guy. Don't go back. Don't come back. We'll see what happens with him by the end of the season. Personally for me, I love learning like stunt choreography and stuff. It's it's cool that I get to like do my own acrobatics.

Young Hollywood

So you do your stunts as well.

Kelli Berglund

I do, yeah. I've done a couple flips on the show. I do all of my kicks and punches. Um it's really fun. It's so tiring. And I know we have a couple big ones coming up. The season 3 premiere, um I got to do like a lot of underwater stunts. Okay. That was so cool cuz I love physical stuff. I love any action type of thing. It was weird cuz I had a bunch of clothes on. Right. You know, you you jump in the water with clothes on and you're I mean, obviously, I don't I don't need to be naked doing that, but it was weird.

Young Hollywood

I'm sure a lot of fans would go against you right there. I'm not I'm happy sitting on this though. I'll I'll leave all the water stuff to you.

Kelli Berglund

Okay, no one's in here, so don't tell anybody that I took you in here. Let's see what's in my section. Maybe my mission. Oh, we have the mission suit. Who wants to see my mission suit? There it is.

Young Hollywood

I think last time I was here doing an interview with you guys, you said you were going to get me my own suit and that hasn't happened.

Kelli Berglund

Uh, they're still working on it.

Young Hollywood

Okay. Just checking.

Kelli Berglund

I'll get that to you ASAP. Thank you. This is, yeah, if you feel it, it's like a wetsuit material. This is the real deal. It's super stretchy and it gets super warm when you're in it filming for 8 hours.

Young Hollywood

I think I could probably get in that. Should I take this one? It's stretches. Maybe I should take this one. What's this thing? What? Can we grab this?

Kelli Berglund

Oh, gosh. I don't know what that is. Oh, I think that was That might have been in the the alien gladiator episode that we did.

Young Hollywood

Oh, wow. Looking good. You look tough. I could pull this off.

Kelli Berglund

You could.

Tyrel Jackson Williams

Three years is a long time on a show. Three seasons is a long time on a show. How has that been like? We all grow up so much. Um and we've all grown. Even if like we watch first season episodes, which kill me, um you see how much you grow, not only as an actor, but like as a person and you grow a lot between 17 to 20, you know what I mean? There's a huge difference there and um I see Billy and Kelli now who are 18, so they're about the age of that I was when I started and um it's crazy how much they've grown since I met them and how much I think that they're going to grow, you know, from that. So it's cool.

Kelli Berglund

Right. You know. At first, you know, when I when I booked the role of Bree, I was so excited, but I was like, okay, how can I make Bree the best possible Bree that she can be? And even the writers were still trying to figure out who she was exactly, because you have Adam, who's kind of the not so smart one, and then you have Chase who's

Young Hollywood

But really good-looking.

Kelli Berglund

Yes. And then you have Chase who's super intelligent, and then there's like Bree in the middle. She's kind of the the medium between the two.

Tyrel Jackson Williams

Some serious things went down, which kind of made Leo kind of take a more grown up

Young Hollywood

Man up.

Tyrel Jackson Williams

Yeah. Man up. I said it. I said it. I said it. You simplified everything. I was trying to say. I was trying to say. The writers are really sneaky about it, too. They don't give anything away. They don't tell us, you know, if you think that maybe we hear a few weeks prior to the episode, you know, us filming the episode that, oh, just a little heads up that, you know, this person's going to do this and No, none of that. Mm-mm. They throw away the key.

Kelli Berglund

This is the way to craft service. I'll take you there. This is the way to the food. So the red light just turned off, which means we can go in, cuz they're not rolling anymore. Usually in the mornings, you'll have like eggs and bacon over here and some oatmeal. Okay. Some like bagels and stuff. Okay. The boys always make jokes, because every time I walk on set or no one can find me, it's like, oh, Kelli's eating food. I always have like a bag of something in my hand. We always seem to get new like superpowers, which is really fun. Um cuz not that the old ones get old, but it's

Young Hollywood

Superpowers never get old.

Kelli Berglund

They never do. But um I I have heat vision now, super strength, I have like a blast wave ability. I like do like this Superman thing where I like blow like a hurricane.

Young Hollywood

What about on the show?

Kelli Berglund

Blow it away.

Kelli Berglund

And then on the show, I uh No, that's that's it. In real life, uh unfortunately, I don't have.

Young Hollywood

If you could take any one of them to real life, what would it be? Now.

Billy Unger

Oh, man. I I like the blast wave. It's like a Hulk thing that I do. I like pound nothing and it just like causes like a ripple and it just destroys everything, which is cool.

Young Hollywood

If you couldn't have been anything on screen, off screen, what would it be?

Billy Unger

I'm going to say jetpack or hoverboard. So either one of those. So great in the playground. That's just going to win over everyone.

Young Hollywood

What's your favorite part of the lab?

Kelli Berglund

Probably my capsule. It's just kind of cute. I like to stand in it sometimes. Be there. Because I'm alone time.

Young Hollywood

Can you go into your capsule?

Kelli Berglund

I can go stand. Ready? Let's go in there. It's got a little bit of a shower vibe to it. But that's okay. It's my capsule. Sometimes I like to lay it against here and like take a little nap sometimes. I feel like we're about to shoot a L'Oreal commercial. Because I love you. We don't have the school set anymore. Right. Cuz we we filmed all of our episodes with the school gym and the school hallway. So all that's left is really the great room and the lab. We have fun. You got to see a tour of it. We have fun. We got exclusives. Thanks to Kelli.

Billy Unger

Yes.

Kelli Berglund

You're welcome.

Billy Unger

She's amazing. She's amazing.

Kelli Berglund

Aw, thank you.
