Novak's friendship is the stuff of legends. Ever since the duo began co-starring together on The Office , their adorably weird relationship they dated, they broke up, they worked together, they're writing a book As an intro to the panel, a video was shown, narrated by Kaling, highlighting the writer's impressive career.
When Kaling briefly mentioned that she'd just returned from the Cannes Film Festival to promote the movie Inside Out , Novak didn't hesitate to make fun of her for attending the elite event. It turns out the Twitter shout-out wasn't enough ; Kaling's so appalled Novak's taking on a role in the Ray Croc biopic that she brought it up again in the panel. Novak, however, was not amused, telling Kaling that "this is not about me," but that he's willing to talk to the director to get her a role since he knows she loves McDonald's.
She compared Novak to the kid at space camp who smokes weed, and said he's one of the only "bad boys" she's ever been into. When a Canadian fan asked a question, Kaling was all too happy to point out that Novak is half-Canadian, telling him excitedly that "you're more of a foreigner than I am!
After Kaling somehow went from answering a question on book chapters to talking about American patriotism, Novak gently got her back to topic, for which she thanked him profusely. See All Health Relationships Self.
