I'm the expert behaviorist. On the show? Not in real life at all.

It hasn't bled over? Have you learned anything? You can't tell by legs crossed or any body language.

Not even a little bit. I know nothing.

You look beautiful. You have very nice eyes. He's an expert behaviorist. That's all I got. You, you're good at this.

Uh no, I just, I just do what they tell me to do.

We're talking fashion with Katherine McPhee. How are you?

Hi, good. Good to see you.

They're definitely talking fashion. Um congratulations, the show just got a full season pickup.

I did. So 22 episodes.

Yes. Which one are you on now?

We're just finishing 11 today and we're starting 12.

You got a call. Are you so excited? So this is my apartment. This is Walter's apartment.

Yeah. It is on top of Scorpion Computer Services Limited, where all my other team work.

That's a quick commute.

It's a very, very short, short ticket ride. Would you like to, um admire the, uh the Mothman area of this?

Yeah, this is a nice choice. Different areas of clean. You know what? You might want to vacuum here. There's a lot of dust bunnies down there.

Busy saving the world, but in Ireland we used to, uh rake rake the carpet sometimes.

So you're a stats guy on the show.

Mm-hmm, on the show.

Um what's 2 plus times 2?

You said 2 plus, 2 times.

2 times 2. I changed my mind. I decided to make it tougher.

It's the same, 4. It's the same, the same as 2 plus 2.

Okay. So, uh, so you got a, you got a bedroom over here. Real nice.

Yeah.

You got this, oh, it's, it's as if somebody put this together for you.

I've never, uh slept on this in my life. Oh it kind of is.

There's your wardrobe.

Cuz I've never seen a bed in my life. Oh my god. This is a place that I live in.

Did mom not teach you to hang your clothes? Oh hey. Hey. All right. I've never been up here. I've never been invited up here. This is the inner sanctum. Look it's like 3 p. m. what? Ad sent from the the past to in order to, uh, create enjoyment for my character, who is deeply sad and miserable. But you wanna steal this, don't you and take it home with you? I can tell.

I was just talking. I was just, actually, I was just talking. I am 22 and I can't let myself buy sweatpants yet because I haven't reached like the level of being okay with myself wearing sweatpants around my home. I can't do it. I'm 22.

You don't know what you're missing. Uh, I didn't until this morning, and now I'm thinking, Patton Oswalt was right. I gotta I gotta buy some sweatpants because this is like I mean, truthfully this is heaven. In life, would you rather have a high IQ or EQ? Good question. What do you think is more attractive?

Honestly, the people that have the high EQ make more money.

High IQ.

Yes.

Bankers, do they have a high IQ or high EQ? What? Do the bankers have a personality? Can they work it? About the money, man. EQ or IQ, what do you think?

Well, if uh your facts are correct, that seems to make sense to me. I would I would think that, uh, like the real Walter O'Brien that we know, uh you know, he's, he's had to develop his EQ over the years. His IQ is so high.

I'm okay with the IQ that I have, which I don't know what it is. Have you ever, you ever taken that test? Cuz we took it in school, girl, I know.

No, I never wanted to take it. Don't really care to, don't really wanna know. I'm fine with being a high EQ person. I think I'm sort of in the high EQ person. I've kind of, I'm good at vibes and

What's a good deal?

I think I, I think actors are pretty good at like reading people because that's sort of your job, right? Is studying studying human, human nature and understanding how people's brains work. I mean everyone's are different. You know, what I was gonna say about Elias is, uh the, uh the amount of work he's got to do with this character is incredible. He's playing a genius with 197 IQ. Yeah. The real Elias Gabel is not. But

In life, if you could either have an IQ higher than Einstein, be a human calculator and know stats and all that, or be like a world-class people analyzer, which of the three would you choose?

People analyzer.

If I could take any of the superpowers, I'd stay being a normal person and I would like to be a stats person. Like a the human calculator. Sylvester is the human calculator, and I think it's just kind of impressive. I like who I am.

Yeah. You're the agent. You're the federal agent.

Well, it's fun and awesome to play a human calculator. Sure. But he's also got so many issues. I mean being a human calculator, he can see the potential disaster in the world around him. Right. That's a huge weight to carry on your shoulders. You just would always sound like the smartest person in every room that you go into. I've learned from doing this show that having a super high IQ isn't necessarily a gift, and that's a big part of what the show is. And you'd think, oh, I want to be super smart, but it's nice to be normal. It's, it's really nice to be on a hit show and, um, and be with such great group of people. And we've got great creatives on this show.

Thank you so much.

Thank you.

Congratulations.

Thank you so much. Heartiest congratulations from our side.

This is Young Hollywood. This is Young Hollywood. Yes. You're going to bring the host to tears. I'm like, I got chills. That's incredible. Well, listen, just keep analyzing those people on the show. And there you go. Yeah.

Don't know what you're talking about. Neither do I. I just do what I'm told. It's a very good question. Nicki, you got to, Are you going to leave me hanging? It's a really good question. He's not going to answer it. He's going to leave me hanging till season 2. Thank you, Scorpion. I'm Team Scorpion. # that.
