Did anyone see Ron Howard on Leno discussing his phone conversation with Miss Davis?

Bette: Mr Howard.

Ron: Please call me Ron.

Bette: I will call you Mr Howard until I decide if I like you. 'Click'

I love it!

Terrible, just terrible!

That was generous of her. She was not a woman who freely handed out kudos.

Before kudos she handed out twinkies.

I don't love it. I don't like it at all.
