- TriviaThis is the episode that, for the very first time, catapulted Leno's ratings over and above rival David Letterman's. Guest Hugh Grant was there to promote his first Hollywood film Nine Months (1995) and answer Leno's resounding question - "What the hell were you thinking?" - just 13 days after Grant's arrest on solicitation charges in Los Angeles (27 June 1995).
- Quotes
Jay Leno - Host: [Referring to Hugh's arrest for soliciting a prostitute] What the hell were you thinking?
Hugh Grant - Guest: [Nervously stuttering] It's not easy, the thing is people give me tons of ideas on this one. I keep reading new psychological theories and things like that I was under pressure or I was tired or lonely or I fell down the stairs when I was a child, or whatever, but I think that would be bollocks to hide behind. I think you know in life, you know what is a good thing to do and what a bad thing to do and I did a bad thing, so there you have it.
