AceShowbiz - Jimmy Kimmel, Guillermo Rodriguez and Liam Neeson star together in a "Taken" spoof video released on Wednesday night, January 14 on "Jimmy Kimmel Live!". In the video, Guillermo stars as Liam's old friend.
The video first shows Liam and Guillermo, who previously attended the same security school, having drinks together. "So how is it going on, do you get a family?" Liam asks Guillermo. "Just my dogs, Pepe and Paco," Guillermo replies, "But they keep me busy."
Liam then changes his facial expression as he sees one of Guillermo's dogs is missing. "You need to listen to me very carefully," the actor tells Guillermo, "One of your dogs has been taken." The Mexican comedian then responds, "Taken? I don't think so. Maybe he just went for a walk."
Liam says, "No, no, no, no. Listen to me. This happens to me a lot." Guillermo asks the actor, "Taken, you mean, to another house?" Liam then adds, "Yes. Someone has taken him. Listen, I don't want you to worry. I would do everything in my power... to make sure Pepe comes back to your loving arms."
"You mean Paco?" Guillermo asks Liam, to which he replies, "Yes. I mean Paco."
Liam is later seen having a phone call with Jimmy, the dog's kidnapper. "Listen carefully. I don't know who you are but I'm warning you that I have a particular set of skills. Skills that make me a nightmare for people like you." Jimmy then asks Liam in Spanish accent, "What are your skills?"
"Um, weapons training, shooting," Liam tells Jimmy, before adding, "Juggling, or spike writing, origami... two years of high school Spanish."
The scene then shows Liam and Guillermo breaking into Jimmy's hideout. After shooting Jimmy, Guillermo reunites with Paco. "Thank you Liam Neeson for everything," Guillermo tells the actor. The scene ends with Guillermo screaming as his pants are gone.
