Chris Masterson Ponders Neverland Pay-Day

‘Malcolm in the Middle’ star Chris Masterson was on ‘Last Call with Carson Daly’ on Friday night where the two joked a bit about Chris’ co-star Frankie Muniz being invited to Michael Jackson’s Neverland Ranch. Chris suggested he’d love to visit Neverland because “you get touched, and then you get $50 million.” Masterson then added, “I would send my little sister to his ranch for $50 million.” Read on for a transcript.

Carson: And that’s great. How’s Malcolm?

Chris: The person Malcolm?

Carson: Yeah, Malcolm.

[ Laughter ] I refer to Frankie Muniz as Malcolm.

Chris: I know you do.

Carson: I can’t help that.

Chris: Malcolm, he’s doing really well.

Carson: Malcolm was just here recently and, Michael, you’ll love this story, too. I don’t know if you’ve heard this or not, but he was out here on the couch. I don’t know where the interview was going. I rarely do. And he just started talking about Michael Jackson, saying that he was invited to Michael Jackson’s ranch.

[ Light laughter ]

Chris: To Neverland?

Carson: Yes. And it wasn’t even really scheduled to be talked about. I don’t know. He’s Frankie Muniz, you know? And I though, “well, it makes sense.” But I don’t know what happened. And he entertained the idea of going.

Chris: I would love to go to his ranch.

Carson: You would? Are you crazy?

Chris: I’d make, like, $50 million.

Carson: No.

Chris: Yeah.

Carson: But you know what happens when kids go to the ranch?

Chris: You get touched, and then you get $50 million.

Carson: You get touched, and then you get rich.

Chris: I would send my little sister to his ranch for $50 million.

Carson: Aw.

[ Audience aws ] That’s a horrible thing to say, right, everybody? No.

[ Laughter ] I agree with you. I think it’s a moneymaker. Let’s move on.
