Mark Wahlberg‘s hard-partying character in “Ted 2” is used to taking shots — and the actor took some of a very different kind with Jimmy Fallon on Thursday.
Wahlberg and “The Tonight Show” host launched into a game of Head Shots, while dressed in protective clothing that made them look like they were trying out for a “Power Rangers” movie.
The aim of the game was to shoot plastic arrows at the object on your opponent’s head, Fallon explained, if you hit it you got a point and if you missed, your opponent got a point. If you flinched and the object fell off — you got even more points.
Fortunately for Fallon, he introduced a bonus round and both players earned 1,000 points … and the host kept his dignity.
“The Tonight Show” airs at 11.35 p.m. on NBC.
