On this week\u2019s episode of Conan O\u2019Brien Needs A Friend<\/a>, Conan and Will looked back on their personal text exchanges when Conan\u2019s father died last year. Will starts off the story by saying that he sent Conan his condolences via text, and the reply was not quite what he was expecting.\"A<\/p>\n

\u201cI text you, \u2018I\u2019m sorry to hear about your dad\u2019s passing, sending love from our family to yours,\u2019\u201d Will recalled. \u201cAnd you wrote, \u2018Thank you, Will. To be honest, I blame [Jason] Bateman.\u2019\u201d\"Person<\/p>\n
