Former S_aturday Night Live_ actors Bill Hader and Kristen Wiig, stars of the new movie [_The Skeleton Twins_](http://time.com/3310147/skeleton-twins-movie-review/), got a good laugh last week when they realized their interviewer had not seen the film and had no idea what it was about. That became clear when Denver anchor and entertainment reporter Chris Parente asked Kristen Wiig for advice on how to deliver the news in the nude, mixing it up with a scene in which she walks around naked in _Welcome to Me,_ another 2014 flick. Bill Hader took over, “The movie you want to go see is called _Skeleton Twins._ Kristen is fully clothed in it, I’m fully clothed in it.”

Watch the full clip here:
