Conan Shares His Proposal Tips | Conan O'Brien Needs A Fan
Do you have a question for Conan Rahill? I do. Um, and it's like a, you know, a. life dilemma that I'd love to get some. insight of yours. Um, so I am planning. on proposing to my girlfriend in Mhm. And um so you know I'm about to start. the whole ring shopping um thing and her. parents happen to be jewelers and so I'd. like to know how you would kind of. navigate the clear conflict of interest. when I have no negotiating power on my.
side. Is your question is you don't want. to purchase the ring from the parents. Is that it? I do. But how would I get. the best deal or negotiate my way when I. have no power on my side? with your. future in-laws. But are you assuming. they're not going to give you the best. deal that they might Yeah. trying to. make a profit off? Do they do you get. along with Do you get along with your. girlfriend's parents? No, I do. I do. They're lovely. They're lovely. Okay. So, my guess is they're going to give. you a good deal. But that's the.
assumption that you you know that's He. can't go anywhere else. He can't go to. another jeweler. So, they're just going. to be like, "Well, the ring pay whatever. we tell him to pay." I I would I need to. I mean for three times the price. I. don't know these people. I don't know. who they are. You tell me they're nice. people. Um I'm questioning whether you. have to buy the ring from them. You have. to. Well, you could say, Raquil, that. it's important for you that the ring you.
give your future wife have passed. through your body. Oh, that's not where. I thought you I said like where I'm. going with this. I just want to be an. independent man. No, that uh that and. you it's important to you that a you buy. the ring and that then it passed through. your GI tract. Okay, in order because. that's such an important part of your. life and they're not going to want to. sell they're not going to want to sell. you one of their rings once they hear. that. It's a symbolism of it's a symbol. of your you it's a symbol of what you.
do, your profession, what you're giving. your life to, but also you are willing. to process this ring in every way that a. human can process something. And uh and. then they're going to not want to sell. you a ring at that point. No, cuz. there's a good chance it'll get stuck in. there like a sunflower seed. It's not. what Rao, you'll buy you'll buy a ring. that will pass easily through the the. lower bowel, will you not? It'll get. stuck. Yeah. At my current fellow. salary, I don't think I can afford. anything that's going to get stuck.
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. And you can also enase. it in in a prune or something that's. going to go through pretty quick. Well, I'm just telling Don't eat the ring. Don't eat the ring. Oh, you're telling. me that what I'm telling him is stupid. How is it stupid that he buy a ring, stick it in a prune, eat it, pass it. through his body, clean it off, and give. it to his wife and bypass his her. parents who were jewelers. I don't see. one problem with that plan. Rahil, what. do you think? I could get behind most of. it.
Um, well, listen, in all seriousness, I. think you buy the ring from them. Are. they going to be able to keep their. mouth shut? Because you do want it to be. a surprise when you give her the ring. I. know. And so I don't know if I can tell. her whenever this uh podcast comes out. if she can listen to it or if I cut it. halfway. Well, she's an intelligent. woman. I'm assuming she's not listening. So I think you're okay. Do you think our. parents are going to have a lot of input. on what the ring is or do you get to. choose that freely? We we've kind of. talked about it. Um and they've they've.
told me what her preferences are. Oh, for God's sake. She already knows what. her preferences are most expensive. I. don't know. I think that they I think. they can keep a secret. So I'm hoping. But do they know what she wants? Because. you keep talking about what, you know, Eduardo brings up a good point, which is. they know what their preferences are, but what's her preference? No, they've. said, you know, they they're family of. jewelers. Um, couple generations. So, jewelry is very ingrained. I think. they've always talked about that kind of. stuff like over the dinner table. probably. Um, and so they they they.
definitely know her preferences. Um, and. I think they they definitely guide me. the right way. They're they're sweet. people. And this is obviously set, you. know, with a touch of just, but yeah. Um, well, I think uh I think it's all. gonna go swimmingly. I just want to make. sure that it's a nice surprise, you. know, that that uh when you pull that. ring out of of yourself. Oh my god. That. it's a surprise. This is now part of the. proposal. He's pulling it out of his. body. If he times it right, if he times.
it right, he could say, "Honey, get over. here. Get no." No, he's got to rinse it. first. You can't just water running. Get. over here now. Get over here now. Squat. Here you go. Squat. Your fianceé can never listen to you. Could fire it across the room. Oh my god. Like a carnival game. Like. stick your finger out, honey. No. Here. she comes.
Your parents helped me pick it out. Your. parents picked it out a week ago and. then I ate it with a lot of corn. Now. listen, I'm sorry. Ra, I'm looking right now at a transcript of. this entire conversation and I see that. I've made no missteps whatsoever. Everything I've said is rational and. should be done. So, uh, congratulations.
No, Rail, you are a uh, impressive young. man. I think you're going to have a. great career. I wish you the best with. this proposal. I think it's all going to. go swimmingly. And uh I hope I bump into. you in person someday because uh I like. you. You're you're a fine fellow. Think. really think seriously about swallowing. the ring. Just think about it. It's a. good idea. Thank you guys so much. It. was so great meeting you guys. All. right. Take care, man.
