Liam Neeson Prank Called Maggie Grace's Ex
Liam Neeson has been working the protective father angle for several years now, which makes this story Maggie Grace told Conan O'Brien all the better. Grace has been playing his imperiled daughter since "Taken" came out in 2008, and through the years, they've developed a nice father-daughter bond. Naturally, when she confessed she was a touch heartbroken over an ex-boyfriend (or, as she describes it, "kind of a hot mess") he sprung into action.
"[Liam] said, like, 'This can't be. We have to set this kid straight. What should we do?' So we called him at his office." Sure enough, they have the audio file ready to go, and boy howdy, it's not the type of call we'd like to receive.
"Your first mistake was dating out of your league," Neeson growls, later adding, "You see, I have a particular set of skills. And I don't want to waste them on you."
Whether the ex-boyfriend was really pranked or we're the ones being pranked, you'll want to check this out.
