Yes. European vacation. Yeah. Yes. Thank you, thank you. Pleasure. Maybe not as fresh in the like my intestines are rotting in the inside but.
Oh okay. But it was worth it. It was worth it. Yes.
Yeah.
Well, I'd imagine you deserve a vacation after being on Pretty Little Liars for so long. Yeah, yeah. And it it's it's I mean it's come to an end. What was your last day like?
Mhm. Oh man, yeah the last day, the last day was epic because it was also the very last day of filming for everybody. It was like, you know, we wrapped on I think it was a Friday. But I was actually myself was shot out in the morning and I had a scene with Troian Bellisario and um it was great because I like gave her a short speech and I didn't I didn't really cry then. I
Oh, wow.
Yeah, I was like, okay and that's my last scene. And I guess I'm done. And then I came back later that night and hung out on set for like five or six hours. And then we finally wrapped at like we're like two or three in the morning maybe. And then they said, and that's a wrap on Pretty Little and like instantly the tears come for everybody.
Oh, Including yourself? Including yourself?
You know, I I got a little I got a little teary-eyed. I cried at random moments.
Do you just not have feelings?
Yeah, I take all of those feelings and I crush them inside.
That's healthy.
Yeah, that's the military upbringing. No, um Yeah, no, actually I cried at random moments like um the night before Keegan had wrapped. And he and I were like hanging out in his dressing room and like kind of like, you know, picking apart the whole thing like what was it like and
Yeah. Yeah. That's a big part of your life.
It was like the entirety of our twenties. It was insane. And he at one point was kind of looking around his dressing room. And like pictures and stuff are on the floor because they're being taken down. And he's hung up his, you know, everything and the room is very plain at this point because everything's being unpacked or packed out. Right. And he just goes, well, I guess that's it. And that was it. And for some reason that of all the things That was the thing that uncontrably so. Yeah. Like snot, more snot and tears.
Oh, you did the ugly cry.

Hmm. Thoughts. Think face. Okay. Got it. This is this is also the icon. The iconic So silly. I should never do that. Um.
Too late. Too late.
I have been to the Arctic Circle once. I'm more of a salt kind of person instead of a sweet. Okay. Um. Got my hand in a brewery in Virginia.
Oh. This is tough. This is tough. Yeah. That's random. This is I'm going to say the the salt versus sweet is a lie. Which well how so? Is that is that a lie?
