Welcome to Younghollywood. com. Hey guys, I'm Jill Wilderman here on the set of Numb3rs where behind me 36 Mafia is about to perform their song "Lolly, Lolly" and I'm gonna take you in for all the action. You know these guys, 36 Mafia, DJ Paul, Juicy J. Last time we saw you guys was at the VMAs. Now we're here on the set of Numb3rs. Tell us what you're doing here. Three 6 Mafia: We're doing a little bit of acting. My character's a hunter, a rapper that wants everything to go smooth, and he's playing a straight gangster rapper.

Young Hollywood

And you performed "Lolly, Lolly." Is there a dance for the "Lolly, Lolly?" Three 6 Mafia: You got to do that, but you gotta do it real fast. What is that?

Young Hollywood

So, do you enjoy acting? Three 6 Mafia: Yeah, it's a lot of hard work, man. I'm excited. I'm like, you know, it's a lot of women here so that keeps me motivated. So I'm like, hey, let's go, man. Let's do a hundred takes. Anytime you get tired, man, just look in the crowd. It's like a Red Bull of the eye.

Young Hollywood

We're here with Aya Sumika who plays FBI Agent Liz Warner. Tell us a little bit about your character on Numb3rs.

Aya Sumika

She's one of the few female agents, which is great.

Young Hollywood

We are standing in front of a memorial. What is this episode about?

Aya Sumika

It's kind of like a rap war episode. You think, but not really at all. There's more to it.

Young Hollywood

What do you love about working on Numb3rs?

Aya Sumika

The action. It's my favorite part. Give me a gun. Give me some stunts. Give me something physical to do, and I'm there. I'm happy.

Young Hollywood

Is this your ride, Dylan?

Dylan

Yeah, yeah, that's mine. Just picked that thing up yesterday. It's pretty sweet, huh?

Young Hollywood

Tell us about your character.

Dylan

In general, I'm like the military guy who's come on to be the new FBI Agent, kinda getting the lay of the land and, you know, adjusting into working in civilian life.

Young Hollywood

You went to MIT. Do you ever have comments for any of these mathematical equations on the show?

Dylan

It's actually kinda cool because some of it reminds me of some of the stuff that I learned in school and I get to sort of, you know, go back into that world for a minute while we're on the show. It's kinda fun.

Young Hollywood

So, you gonna get to enjoy the 36 Mafia performance?

Dylan

Yeah, I think I'll probably pop my head in there and check them out.
