The Tonight Show host Jimmy Fallon and Brooklyn Nine-Nine star Andy Samberg try to summarize movie plots in just a few seconds on the September 24, 2014 episode of the late night talk show. They couldn’t use the title of the film in any way in their descriptions and they couldn’t say the name of any actors.

Fallon wanted to keep the viewers on the edge of their seats, so he started with 5-second summaries, went down to 3 seconds, and for the final round allowed Samberg only 1 second to summarize a film.
