‘Outer Banks’ costars Chase Stokes and Madison Bailey face off in a game of Lie v. Lie and find out they might just know each other a little too well. After years playing John B. and Kiara on the hit Netflix series, the longtime costars put their poker faces (and their friendship) to the test with everything from disastrous auditions and on-set memories to downright scary fan encounters. Find out the outrageous way Chase may or may not have killed his chances at a ‘Top Gun’ role. Plus, how close has Madison really come to drowning on set (and how many times)? And was Chase really the one to save her?

00:00Everyone thought it was like, oh wow, they're in the scene, like, this is great.
00:03And I was like, no, she's drowning.
00:04Someone was in the scene, I was drowning.
00:06Yeah. Yeah.
00:06And I was like, I, and you were like, she's not.
00:08I was like, hey, that's not acting.
00:09Something's wrong.
00:14How was her poker face?
00:16Mm.
00:16Oh, poker face, probably about a 4.6 out of 10.
00:20I don't know, it depends on the day.
00:22With this guy, I don't know, my worse than normal, maybe like a 3 out of 10.
00:26Yeah, you're ruined.
00:30Good game.
00:30Good game, soldier.
00:32Ready?
00:33Ready is all over.
00:33I didn't wash my hands after feet, so.
00:37Perfect.
00:38We're good.
00:38We're ready to go.
00:39Tell me your best audition story.
00:42I once read for a movie that had to do with airplanes.
00:48And so I thought the audition was me as a, you know, the said driver of an airplane.
00:54The pilot.
00:55The pilot.
00:55Yeah, that word.
00:56And so I did the whole audition as a pilot, and they gave me a note, and the note was,
01:03you were actually not flying the plane.
01:05You were in the air traffic control tower, and you're just talking to the pilots.
01:09You're not the cool guy.
01:10And I was like, oh, okay, well I can do it again.
01:12And they were like, no, that's okay, you can leave.
01:13Please leave.
01:14Yeah.
01:14And so they left.
01:15Actually get out.
01:15Yeah.
01:16So I left.
01:16Um.
01:19Damn.
01:20I don't know.
01:21What?
01:21This is hard.
01:24We're off to it.
01:24That is true.
01:25Okay.
01:26Okay.
01:26That is true.
01:27I like that being true.
01:28Yeah.
01:28It's funny.
01:29Because what were you doing?
01:30Honestly, I should have probably read the sides.
01:33You know?
01:33Like it was right there too.
01:34Tips for any actors.
01:35Read the other words on the page.
01:37Like the stage directions.
01:38Read those.
01:39Read the materials.
01:39Read the materials.
01:40Don't wing it.
01:41It was Top Gun.
01:42Oh.
01:43So anyways.
01:44You thought for sure.
01:45You said sure.
01:45I was like.
01:46I got it.
01:48It's a pilot.
01:49Flying a plane.
01:49Nobody puts a baby in the pit.
01:50Air traffic control.
01:51And I was like, oh.
01:52There you go.
01:53Nice.
01:54I suppose it's my turn now.
01:55It's your turn.
01:56Come on.
01:56What's the most unusual skill you've had to learn for a role?
02:02Great question.
02:03I think the most unusual skill I've had to learn is learning how to surf.
02:11Sorry.
02:11Because we ain't never learned.
02:14No.
02:15I would say your most unusual skill would be scuba diving.
02:19No.
02:20It was a lie because we never learned.
02:22Yeah.
02:22They took us out one time.
02:24We did like two lessons and I was like.
02:26They were like, these guys are bad at those.
02:28Also there's no waves in Charleston whatsoever.
02:30So we're just gonna.
02:31We're just laying out there flat.
02:32Like flat on the water.
02:33Like it's nice.
02:34This is it.
02:35We're doing it.
02:35This is what we're doing.
02:36Cool.
02:36Every time a little wave goes by we're like, whoa.
02:38I was on that one.
02:40You saw me?
02:41Got on my knees.
02:43Next one.
02:44What is your most treasured Poglandia memory?
02:48My favorite Poglandia memory.
02:51The first day that we actually saw the build on.
03:00Continue.
03:01No, no, no.
03:01I was gonna say the first day that we saw Poglandia on the Maybank property.
03:05And we were like, oh my gosh.
03:07Like it came to life in such a beautiful way.
03:09And we were like all walking around.
03:11And seeing it.
03:18Cause it's not your favorite memory.
03:20Mm-mm.
03:20But it's true.
03:22But it's not your favorite memory.
03:23It's a true thing, but it's not my favorite memory.
03:26It feels like a lie, a technicality on a lie.
03:29Mm-mm.
03:30But I accept.
03:31I accept.
03:32My favorite memory was when we did the piece.
03:34I think it was with-
03:35Entertainment Weekly where they came to Poglandia and we gave them a tour of the entire Poglandia.
03:40Jonathan Davis was standing off camera about to throw a ping pong ball at my face.
03:43No, no.
03:44No, I'm not.
03:45Why would you even suggest that?
03:45Why are you holding the ball like that?
03:46Why don't you keep doing the interview?
03:47I'm gonna keep doing the interview.
03:48And we were all, like we could not keep our sh** together the entire time.
03:51Yeah.
03:52That was my favorite memory.
03:54Aww.
03:54Have you ever been caught sneaking something off of the Outer Banks set?
03:58You gonna try to lie to me on this one?
03:59I have a story you haven't heard though.
04:01Oh.
04:02I was taking the rest of Kiara's fake weed in her Altoid can cause I ran out.
04:09So I took home fake to smoke.
04:16That was such a bad liar you guys.
04:17I would never smoke that.
04:19That was terrible.
04:19That was actually the worst stuff that you could smoke on the planet.
04:21And you also would not run out with love.
04:23Just knowing you.
04:24You're not wrong.
04:25You're not wrong.
04:25You're not wrong.
04:26You're not wrong.
04:28You had me in the first half.
04:30No.
04:30Like I was like, oh props.
04:32Okay.
04:32I'm in.
04:33I'm invested.
04:33Where did I go wrong?
04:35Fake weed.
04:35Yeah.
04:36Okay.
04:37What's a piece of advice you once got that stuck with you?
04:40That your first take is always actually your best take.
04:43But actors don't believe that.
04:49Is that your favorite advice?
04:55It's not your favorite advice.
04:57What?
04:57You don't give a damn how many takes we doing.
05:01But that is kind of true.
05:03There is some truth to that I think.
05:05A little bit.
05:05Like only when I'm taping auditions though.
05:07Like only then.
05:08Yeah.
05:08You go back and you're like, oh wow actually.
05:10I'm like, why did I waste four hours?
05:12I'll be scrolling like, what's the first one?
05:14Choose it.
05:15That one.
05:16Did you actually get that advice at any point?
05:18No.
05:18No.
05:19He tells lies.
05:20He lies.
05:20He lies for fun.
05:21That was complete, entire, utter lie.
05:25And I started to smirk when you looked away.
05:27I was like, this is stupid.
05:29Whatever.
05:30Your characters get one million dollars at the beginning of season four.
05:36What's the most expensive thing you've ever purchased?
05:40Ooh.
05:41Ooh.
05:42Hmm.
05:43Hmm.
05:44Uh, my cars.
05:49Why?
05:51Alex's house.
05:53He knows everything you guys.
05:55Yes, I bought my dad a house.
05:56Mm-hmm.
05:58Ooh.
05:59Or cash.
06:00That is the most money I'll have for this ring.
06:01You're like.
06:02Take it.
06:03Here you go.
06:03You're welcome, dad.
06:04My dad goes, thanks.
06:06I like it.
06:07You're like, hope so.
06:08I hope so.
06:09Glad you love it.
06:10What is the most challenging thing you've had to do for a scene?
06:13Hmm.
06:14There's so many options.
06:16Too many.
06:16I think the underwater work.
06:19Mm-mm.
06:20No.
06:22You're a fish.
06:23Yeah, you're right.
06:24That's my, that's my hardest thing.
06:25That's true for me.
06:27You've almost drowned multiple times.
06:28Yeah.
06:29You actually make a bad day worse.
06:31Cause let me tell y'all, because when I'm struggling to barely swim, Chase is like.
06:36It's like little barrels.
06:38I swear he's breathing under there.
06:39Just to make me look bad.
06:40I did save your life one time.
06:41I swear you're doing it.
06:41A couple.
06:42Yeah.
06:42We were in Barbados and there was a scene when JJ gets knocked off of a boat and he's unconscious
06:51in the water and Kiara was holding him up and I was on like a little John boat and I
06:56realized
06:56that I couldn't see Bales' face anymore.
06:58We were like treading water for like a minute before they called action.
07:01And it was really hard to communicate.
07:02Like you couldn't communicate with anyone.
07:04And so I was like, oh no, Bales has been under there for a while.
07:07So I jumped off the boat and I realized that she was not able to breathe underwater.
07:11You couldn't like swim closer to the boat.
07:12Yeah.
07:12It was a whole struggle.
07:14And everyone thought it was like, oh wow, they're in the scene.
07:16Like this is great.
07:17And I was like, no, she's drowning.
07:18Someone was in the scene.
07:19I was drowning.
07:20Yeah.
07:20And I was like, I, and you were like, she's not.
07:22I was like, hey, that's not acting.
07:23Something's wrong.
07:25It's like I'm drowning.
07:26Everybody's like, wow, she's really good.
07:28And they're like, wow, Chase is really committed to this.
07:30He just left the boat in the middle of the open ocean.
07:32We're improv-ing, we're improv-ing.
07:33John B's in the water now.
07:34They're jumping.
07:34Yeah.
07:35She's really good.
07:37Can't go.
07:37That was me in that moment.
07:39Sorry.
07:40What do you think it was though?
07:41Your actual hardest scene was?
07:42Yeah.
07:42Mm.
07:44Collectively, it was all of our hardest scenes.
07:46I was there.
07:47Okay.
07:47You were there.
07:48I can't think of a scene that I've seen you just like.
07:51Morocco during the sandstorm.
07:53I mean, that was just, that was not even a scene.
07:55That's an episode.
07:57A little bit.
07:58What episode?
07:58I'm like episode 410 and episode 510.
08:03Mm-hmm.
08:03Oh.
08:05Spoiler alert.
08:07510 is my, impossible.
08:08Yeah.
08:09What's the most ridiculous fact that you know by heart?
08:12Did you guys know that love bugs were created in a lab in Florida?
08:15All love bugs.
08:17This is, okay.
08:17I don't.
08:18Have been created in a factory.
08:19In a Petri dish, right?
08:21That's what you tried to tell me season one?
08:22I don't know if what I, I don't know how to answer this.
08:25This is the craziest fact that she's ever heard, but it is a lie.
08:29And I thought it was true.
08:30And I told everyone season one that love bugs were created in a lab at University of Florida.
08:35Come to find out that is a lie.
08:37I don't.
08:37Only Florida people would spread that rumor.
08:39Did you know that we created love bugs from scratch?
08:42She looked at me like I had lost my marbles four days into shooting the show.
08:45It's the way that Rudy's like, ah.
08:47And then JD's like, okay.
08:49She's like, I'm gonna agree to anything.
08:51And I'm like, literally no, that's not true.
08:54And you're not about to convince everybody here.
08:56I was like, Google it.
08:57And you Googled it.
08:57And you were like, look.
08:58Yeah.
08:58So it's fake.
08:59First thing it was like, so some people say that it's a common lie.
09:05Yeah.
09:06Anyways, I tried to spread misinformation early on, on the show.
09:09So next.
09:11What's something you're glad you once did, but will never do again.
09:13One time I decided to go with my, my little brother always wanted to fly planes.
09:19And so I decided that as his older brother, I would go with him and sit in the back of
09:24the plane with the teacher.
09:26And I did it once and I would never, ever let my brother fly me in a plane ever again.
09:35Which of your brothers was flying a plane?
09:36It was Evan.
09:37Literally no.
09:38Oh, I don't know Evan.
09:39My bad, my bad.
09:40That's okay.
09:40But Griffin, honestly.
09:42I only thought of Griffin.
09:43I said.
09:45Griffin's not flying planes.
09:46Okay.
09:46I got confused.
09:47Tappity tap, tapping on his.
09:48All right.
09:50That's interesting.
09:51Yeah.
09:51I wish one of my siblings could fly planes.
09:53It was the weirdest request.
09:54It was like a birthday thing.
09:55He's like, I want to be a pilot.
09:56And my mom's like, okay.
09:57And you could just.
09:58You can take lessons, yeah.
10:00And so I just decided to.
10:01I'm gonna learn.
10:02Are you gonna get in the back of the plane in a plane plane?
10:03No.
10:03No.
10:04I'll get in a plane with you.
10:06No, get in the back of the plane.
10:06Yeah.
10:07Okay.
10:08I actually am the pilot.
10:08I'm not at the radio tower like you are.
10:11You guys are?
10:12I'm gonna get the role.
10:13Damn.
10:13A pilot.
10:15Still cuts deep, honestly.
10:17Great movie.
10:18Great movie.
10:19Your turn.
10:19What is the strangest thing you've seen another actor do on set?
10:23Ooh.
10:24Oh my God.
10:25Wait, this is.
10:26Okay.
10:26I forgot that we're supposed to be telling truth and lies.
10:28And now I'm just doing story time.
10:30Remember that one day?
10:31It was our first day working with an actor.
10:35Mm-hmm.
10:36And he was trying to get himself really hyped up.
10:39Mm-hmm.
10:40And we were all, it was season four.
10:42We just met him.
10:44And he was getting himself hyped up.
10:46Mm-hmm.
10:46And he was just yelling.
10:47Yeah.
10:47Just screaming.
10:49And I'm not, it's not that weird.
10:50Like hype yourself up, however.
10:52But just it being on that scene, it was just.
10:56Tough.
10:58Maybe just not the most necessary hype up.
11:00Yeah.
11:03Yeah.
11:04It was pretty strange.
11:05It scared me.
11:05This is true.
11:07Um.
11:07Our whole crew was kind of a little bit thrown off.
11:10Like even our camera operators were like.
11:13Everybody's like.
11:14Hmm.
11:15Okay.
11:15Just a great human being was super nice.
11:18Really.
11:18And like as soon as we started to get into it, he was just screaming.
11:20And we were all like.
11:23Because the rehearsal was so chill.
11:24Yeah.
11:25He was like, and this and that, blah, blah, blah, blah.
11:26It's all good.
11:27We're like.
11:28He was amped.
11:29Whoa.
11:30He was amped.
11:31I'm now into this scene way more than I need to be.
11:33So.
11:35Just picking up fish.
11:36I accept that I'm just going to lose this game because I'm doing story time.
11:40Story time is great.
11:40We're playing different games.
11:42Honestly.
11:42What's the most uncomfortable costume you've had to wear for a role?
11:46I did this movie called Uglies and I transition into what is called a pretty.
11:55And then I go from a pretty to a special.
11:58Pretty special.
12:01I know that pipeline.
12:02And.
12:02Yeah.
12:03Boop, boop, boop.
12:04And I had to wear like a bodysuit that made me look like I was way bigger than I actually
12:08was.
12:09And it was a onesie.
12:09And so I had to have people help me get into it.
12:11And that was not great.
12:13Most uncomfortable.
12:15That sounds true.
12:16Yeah.
12:16That sounds tight and uncomfortable.
12:17It was.
12:18Yeah.
12:18I didn't like it.
12:19I don't think you wore anything bad on ours.
12:21Pretty easy.
12:22A wetsuit.
12:22But that's just like.
12:23It was like a wetsuit on steroids.
12:25But it's dry.
12:27So that's worse.
12:27A dry wetsuit.
12:28That's worse.
12:29Yeah.
12:29With people having to help me get in it.
12:32And blonde hair.
12:34We're never going to do that again.
12:36That was a choice.
12:36Well, I've been here for a week.
12:38Yeah, you are.
12:38Thanks for noticing.
12:39What's the most ridiculous lie you told to get out of something?
12:44Ooh.
12:45Ooh.
12:46This year, I told them on set I was going to pass out.
12:50And that I needed to go to my trailer immediately.
12:53I wasn't going to pass out.
12:54I was having tummy issues.
12:59That feels true.
13:01You guys.
13:03When I say the fuss that I called, they were like,
13:05we need to get this shot right now.
13:07And I said, guys, I'm literally, like, I'm going to.
13:10The theatrics and links that I was going to.
13:12First of all, 6 a.m. call time.
13:14Leave me alone.
13:15That could get your ass off.
13:16I'm going to my trailer.
13:17And they were like, we're sending the medic.
13:19And I said, don't send them for, like, 20 minutes.
13:22They were like, they're on the way.
13:23Need a minute.
13:24And I sat in there.
13:24They gave me an IV.
13:25And I was just like, the theatrics at that point was so.
13:28You're like, I'm hydrated as hell.
13:30So out of my control.
13:31You're like, here we'll take it.
13:32Actually, no.
13:33She stuck me three times.
13:34She was like, well, you are dehydrated.
13:36You can't even do this.
13:37You got a one-two punch.
13:38So I got, no.
13:38I got stabbed a bunch of times.
13:40She was like, we can't do this today because, like, you're so dehydrated.
13:43Your veins are, like, little.
13:44And I was like, okay.
13:46So I just got stabbed a bunch.
13:47And I'm still dehydrated.
13:48And I still have to use the bathroom.
13:50Everybody get out.
13:50Yeah.
13:51You're like, I need my tummy time.
13:54Tummy time.
13:55Not IV time.
13:56But I just bold-faced lie.
13:58And I'm so sorry.
13:59You're like, wow, this took me down a rabbit hole.
14:01I'm so sorry.
14:01I changed the whole schedule that day.
14:03That's okay.
14:04I've probably done it.
14:05There's just no way around that.
14:07That's crazy.
14:08I don't think I knew that.
14:10What's a risk you're glad you took even if it didn't work out?
14:13I would say finally reading for the role of John B.
14:18Because I didn't do it initially.
14:20And then I did.
14:21And then it ended up changing my life.
14:24If that's a lie, then you're cold-hearted.
14:26It's true.
14:26Yeah.
14:27I wanted to end on a positive note.
14:29Wow.
14:29This was lovely.
14:30You know what?
14:31And we're both winners.
14:32Yeah.
14:33We're both bad at lying.
14:34Because we're honest.
14:35Oh.
14:36I know that's right.
14:37This is the game of truth.
14:39No lies.
14:40Well, there was a couple in there.
14:41We tried.
14:42We tried to pepper a few in.
14:43It was the lies we made along the way.
14:45Yeah.
14:45The lies.
14:46The lies we told along the way.
14:47The lies we told along the way.
14:49The lies we told along the way that got us to the truth.
14:51Well.
14:52So anyways, thanks Entertainment Weekly for hanging with us.
14:54And hopefully you enjoyed this debauchery.
14:57It's just story time, but.
14:58Story time with Madison and Chase.
15:00Woo!
