The "Don't I Know You?" game
really was one of our first games that we're like,
"Oh, this was good. We should play it again."
Right? Yeah, yeah.
Season 1, because when it came up for Season 2,
we were always like, "Oh, what are we gonna do now?"
And we're like, "Oh, well, we only played that one bit once.
Let's do it again.
There's still so much more comedy there."
And I'm glad that we made that decision.
We really did form a lot of the show early on.
Early on, yeah. That's interesting.
See, I watched that, and I was like, "Wow.
We do everything so differently now."
It's funny. The first two seasons,
the punishments are only like one, two minutes long, at most.
Yeah. And now they're like
three, four, five minutes long.
Now it could be a whole 1/4, 1/3 of the show.
The first punishment ever was you picking up the dog poop.
It was, right? Yeah.
And we made a very bad decision of being like,
"Of course, Sal, you can wear a glove."
What the hell were we thinking?
It seemed bad enough in the moment.
Don't get me wrong -- it's disgusting enough.
The thing is, like, steaming hot.

You should respect marriage a little bit more.

Piñata punishment was the first direct revenge
in "Impractical Jokers."
Vinny came out and started hitting him. You're right!
And we really boarded that train after that.
I think that might be our first real switcheroo.
Like, the first one we ever did, when Murray showed up,
thought it was my punishment. Yeah.
And then, on top of that, it was a reveal of Vinny.
I can't believe it. I'm sorry, Joe.
That was Cinemax, what you did. Yeah.
We should call her during this commercial break,
and you should apologize. Geez!

Alright! Go to commercial!
That was intimate.
I called your dad and asked for permission to do that

to Sal's house from his mother?
At the midnight hour, your mom decided not to give it to us.

in the same day, we filmed skydiving punishment
and Sal's corn-maze punishment.

Yeah. Good day for me and Joe.
Yeah. [ Laughter ]
Or, as we call it, "vacation."
Yeah, it was a nice day off for us.
You cried that day on the skydiving.
I cried that day. I locked myself in the bathroom.
I wouldn't come out.
But part of that was just showmanship.
I was in the bathroom, bawling, crying.
No, the cameras weren't rolling. The cameras --
That was just me on my own time, before I did it.
On your own time? Yeah.
So you just held everybody up
for an hour? I did. I did.
Well, to be fair, it was scary. It was terrifying.
And, to this day, I think that's the only punishment
where we had a backup plan in case I said "no,"
because we had a gentlemen's agreement
that we can't say "no" to punishments, but that day,
they had a backup for Sal to do it, 'cause he's scared of heights, too.
And it almost became Murray's haunted-maze punishment.
Really? Wow.
It would have been a flip-and-reverse it.
In a different world, it's a flip-and-reverse it.
Wow. Yeah.
That wedding to my sister was -- blew me away.
Yeah. It blew me away.
It was like 200 people.
I didn't even hear a snicker, so good on all of you guys --
so much so that when they took the blindfold off,
I was probably the most surprised

And my entire extended family was there.
Then I didn't even know what was going on still, until Jenna --
She had the veil on.
Until you -- Oh, man.
I got into the biggest fight of a relationship that day.
I went back home. We came up with the idea.
Oh, that's right. You asked permission.
I said to the girl I was dating --
I said, "We have a great idea for a series finale.
I'm gonna legally marry Sal's sister."
And she said to me, "Is marriage a joke to you?"
And I realized I screwed up.
It led to a two-hour fight between us.
The correct answer is, "Everything's a joke to us."
Yep. A lot of things happened in Season 3.
