AP, why did you get kicked out of that Radiohead concert? Did you dance too hard? Was Thom jeal of your moves?

HA! I love you for asking that. They tried to kick me out because I was standing up and dancing and at the O2 Arena if you're in the stands you have to be seated. The very next day I went to the concert and convinced everyone in my row and the row in front of us to stand and dance during a song and it created a wave like affect. Everyone was dancing and they couldn't stop us all. So fuck you O2 Arena!

Plus that's the episode where Jesse truly thought deep down inside that they were about to build a robot to save them. That line was actually improvised. I remember that scene, it was a Friday night, and we had wrapped. In the scene I asked Walt "What are we going to build?". He says "you said it before" and then I was supposed to just supposed to stand there with a confused expression on my face. But then Nick, our focus puller, told me I should respond to Walt's question wit "A robot?". So we pretended there was something wrong with the initial shot so I could do it again.

Hello Aaron Paul Firstly thank you for doing this AMA, I missed your first one, so this is great. I really enjoyed you in Veronica Mars and, yes, Breaking Bad. Say hi to Bryan from me, if you get the chance. He was lovely in Trumbo. My question is: If you to take one thing from…

I have the Gustavo bust when Gustavo, Gus, blows up in Breaking Bad. Gregory Nicotero, who did all the special effects, he gave me the bust of Gustavo's head all melted off on one side, and it's great. It's downstairs in my media room. When people go down there and they don't know it's there, they don't notice it right away. But when they do, they start to panic!

Hi Aaron. With a role as three dimensional and long-lasting as Jesse Pinkman, do you feel like you've carried any of his persona with you into real life? Also, can you ask Woody Harrelson if he really did crash that prom party and get back to us?

I crashed a prom once, with my friend Tanner in Idaho. We were in Idaho and went to a cousin's wedding. There was a couple taking photos and we asked why they were dressed up. They said they were going to a prom. I turned to my friend and I said, "We should go to this prom!"

We showed up downtown at the college where they always have proms (they’re in the Student Union building) and we just said that we were there on the chaperone list (we didn't realize that there was a chaperone list). They checked to see if our names were on the list, obviously it was not, but as they were checking I just looked at the student list and I said, "Oh I'm so-and-so's brother. My mom really wants me to come down to make sure he behaves himself."

It was great. We went in there, we danced around a lot, we had the DJ dedicate us some songs. All the students were like, "Who the hell are these old people?" But then they asked us to jump in their student pictures with them. We ended up getting escorted out by the principal because he said, "Listen, your so-called 'brother' just came in and he said that he doesn't have a brother. You guys need to leave. What are you doing here at a high school prom?" I'm like, "We're just partying, man! We're just hanging out!".

As they're telling us to leave, all the people and the kids at the prom started saying, "No! Let them stay! Let them stay!" Like chanting it. It was straight out of a movie. I felt like a god. I felt like I was prom king for a moment. If only that were true.

But we did make their yearbook!
