Today is the day that I go to Lithuania.
Selfie with the champ.
It's where my parents were born, and it's an adventure I'm really looking forward to doing.
Not Paris.
Not even Moscow.
Not even Hawaii.
Bill has a connection to Lithuania.
I don't even know where Lithuania is.
It's near Belarus.
I don't know where that is, either.
Lithuania, guys.
Everybody now! Lithuania I feel familiar here.
I'm looking for the food that I ate as a kid.
My father's history, the culture, - mother, my father - Bill.
Watch that car.
That car is meaningless to me.
This is a roundabout.
Whoa, wait up, there.
What are you doing? Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
You're up on the curb, there.
Why is the oldest person on Earth driving? He can't see.
He's got cartaracts.
Cartaracts? Cataracts? It's cataracts.
Can't see a lick.
This is the greatest idea, to allow me to come to this country and explore my roots.
Bucket list, check.
I hate that word, bucket list.
The top of my dreams, of desires, of things I've wanted to do all my life.
Yeah, you mean your bucket list? I mean my bucket list.
Sure, the guys are making jokes.
We're all having fun, because Lithuania's a fun place.
But Lithuania also has a history that I know, that my grandparents told me about.
This is my home The way the farmers work the fields and the way the villages were.
Where I go And I wanna take them there and have that experience.
- Look at this.
- Look at that.
This is something special.
So I'm taking these guys on a field trip, an interactive museum, to what a Lithuanian village must have looked like during the time my grandparents were here.
All right, gentlemen.
Here is a replica of the way my father's family must have lived.
- Your dad lived like this? - I think so.
This is an authentic experience, wearing these clothes here in a farm village.
We're gonna have the whole experience.
Isn't this remarkable? A farm village, how they must have lived hundreds of years ago.
Oh, you get on this side.
A simpler time with simpler people.
Hey, you gotta be equal in weight to do that.
Really, very simple people.
I can't even look at it.
Pythagoras would have had something to say about where the fulcrum is.
How did geometry get into Lithuania? Well, look at that.
In honesty, this feels just like some sort of elaborate hoax to get us to learn something about history.
- Jeff? - Jeff, you okay? Mom said come in.
It's dinner time.
Do we have to? It's the adventure of the past.
What was it like when our parents and grandparents lived? This is what it was like.
My father would have said, "Mama, are you there?" She would have said, "Get your ass in here!" Joseph! Joseph! My mother would say, "Get in here, or I'll give you the brush!" - That is really awful.
- No, no, no, no, no.
When food was being placed on the table, I was there.
What kind of food? Potato, always something fried, chicken.
You grew up a pretty husky kid? - No.
- Did you have goulash? - No.
- Did you have pierogis at all? We never invited them over.
I don't We didn't have - The Italian family? - I mean The Italian family? That lived near you? - We didn't have any Italians! - The Pierogis? No.
Guys, there's heaps of food in here.
Whoa.
And you can eat it, too.
Oh, wow.
Look at the bread.
Look it here.
- The bread is a challa.
- That's a challa.
For Friday night.
Man, that's some jam, here.
Is it good food, guys? It's delicious.
The food is the kind of food my grandfather would have eaten in the old homestead.
I'm king of the castle here.
Yeah.
Who the heck is she? - Yes.
- Yes.
No.
- My chores? - Yes.
What a great idea.
I hate chores.
Move, move, move, move, move, move! Who's this? On vacation, lady! I go on vacation to get away from work.
These guys are filthy rich.
Washing board.
You know what the washing board is? No.
They don't understand any of this.
I know how to do this.
And they're all excited about the way that people lived back then.
We grew up wanting to get away from this.
So I don't have to do these things.
- Is this your underwear? - Yeah.
You are no namby-pamby here, kiddo.
- Yeah.
- Rub-a-dub-dub.
And then when you're finished with it, and you've rung it out, you'd put it on the clothes line.
Hey, look, I didn't come here to watch Bill wash his underwear.
All right? Look how clean it is.
Gross.
There's one place at the museum that is a traditional Lithuanian spa, if you wanna try that.
Ooh.
I'm all in for that.
Spa day! Woo hoo! Thank God we're away from that mean lady.
This is probably it.
Hey, why don't you go in first? Cool.
Hello? Welcome.
How you doing? This is Lithuanian bath house.
Oh.
Maybe we do wanna do chores.
Wow.
I feel great, thank you.
Huh? - Obedient boys? - Obedient? What the heck kind of spa is this? - Heaven? - Yes.
All right.
- You ready? - Mmm-hmm.
Two hands.
Is the butter gonna be worth it? Why don't we just go to the store? Seriously? Does this look like a spa to you? I thought I saw "spa.
" I thought it was gonna be good.
Didn't switches and leaves kind of get your attention? There was no pictures.
I need pictures.
Oh, yeah.
- That's it! - Got them! Got them! Is there anything else but physical chores? Oh! She's rough.
Does that bring you back to your childhood? - Is this like your mother? - Yeah.
Exactly like my grandmother.
Whoa.
You know, if you listen to the tone - Yeah? - You can harken back to - What tone? - Yeah.
To Please! Shut up.
I'm a little saddened by my experience.
So, hey, enough of the peasant life.
I faced it, embraced it.
See you again.
I wanna do things more my style.
Let's go explore.
There's a ghost in here.
I've never heard of finding a ghost.
They find you.
I am an expert in goats.
Let me introduce the first one.
We're gonna have a walk off.
A goat walk off.
Cibute.
Cibute.
Whoa George What in the what in the Let a man sleep.
One, two, three.
Lithu, Lithu, Lithuania I love you so, you're so green-ia The village wasn't everything I hoped for.
But I hope the guys give what I have in mind a chance.
All right, guys.
So listen.
I have researched everything here as best I could.
And I have found a place to live while we're here that you're gonna love.
Just wait until they see where I have them staying.
Trust me.
Uhoh.
Isn't it great? We're gonna go there.
And we're gonna stay there.
And we're gonna be entertained there.
Wait a minute, wait a minute, we're sleeping there? Is this place haunted? No, it's not haunted.
It's Ghosts live in it.
Oh.
Trakai Castle.
This castle was built for the Duke.
It defied enemies.
There are ghosts in these walls.
Who cares if it's haunted? Hey, we're grown men.
Does it have a spa? Shall we? All right, guys.
This is the castle.
So who gets to have a castle all to themselves? Excuse me.
I do.
Uh It's, uh It's locked.
I don't understand it.
- Look.
- Open now.
How did you do that? I pushed it in.
King Shatner has arrived.
Prepare the main King's castle's quarters.
This is a hotel? This place is older than Bill.
I'm staying with Henry.
- You hear that? - Yes, I do.
That's scary.
- That's ghostly.
- Yeah.
If I see a ghost, Jack, I'm burning rubber.
- That's a storm.
- No.
You think it's a storm.
Yeah.
Could be the ghosts.
Wow.
Check this out.
Look at this building.
Amen.
- I can dig it.
- Wow.
Look at the size of this room.
TB is glad to be here! Is this the Presidential Suite? Look at the tapestry and vaulted ceiling.
Now this is how I imagined my Lithuanian homecoming would be.
I see a throne here.
Kings, castle, throne, come on.
Help! The irony here is my poor people in the villages around never even conceived of coming into the castle.
Here I am sitting on the throne.
Move over, peasant.
There's a new king in town.
What are you doing? King Terry Bradshaw.
It's got a nice ring.
I like it.
Hear ye, hear ye! The court's now in session.
The honorable King Bradshaw will now hear your complaints.
Step up, my child.
I never imagined sharing the throne.
It's my throne.
I'm the peasant family known as the Shatners.
Yes, Shatner? We would just like some bread.
- You want bread? - Yes, please.
Get some money and go get bread.
Get out of my sight.
25 lashes for you in the courtyard.
Don't bother the King with that kind of pity stuff.
Kinda like being on this throne.
Get up, George! Come over here and stand in front of me and let me pass judgment.
- Put the camera down, son.
- Sure.
Come talk to King Bradshaw.
- Okay, fine.
- First of all, let me say one thing.
Yes.
- In the King's presence - Yes.
Learn how to dress properly.
Red, pink, purple, green, and brown shoes.
No go for me.
You got it, buddy? Coming from the guy who wears Hawaiian shirts every day, I happen to like color.
I think that it's festive.
That's one way to put it.
Let's go explore and go look at the dark, cavernous rooms and find out what rooms are what rooms.
There's a ghost in here.
I've always been intrigued by the spirit world.
See, I wanna have a real experience.
Maybe my spirit world the spirits of my ancestors are here in the castle.
Let's do it.
Maybe they'll get after Terry.
Hey, if I see a ghost, I am outta this castle.
I've never heard of finding a ghost.
They find you.
Pretty much guarantee this is gonna end in a broken hip.
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh! That's crazy! You got me good.
Watch your step, guys.
Hey, ghosts, show yourself.
- What is that? - What is that? Look in the corner.
Oh,.
- Jeffrey! - Jeff, you dog.
Come on.
It's not funny.
I'm already jumpy enough.
Listen to me, guys.
Give me a serious moment, and let us try and feel the presence of a ghost.
Okay, okay.
Here we go.
Oh, my God.
What was that? Oh, God.
Get out of here.
Jeff, you stinking head.
Oh, God.
I didn't fart.
What? A little gassy.
Oh.
- Jeffrey! - Jeff! Let's go! Calm down on the old shouting.
- What? - You're like, "Jeff! Jeff, let's go! Come on!" You think I'm 12 years old, and I'm not.
No, no, not 12.
We realize you're a 35-year-old.

Brings me back to a childhood memory of stirring the pot with the corn in it.
My parents and family waiting expectantly.
Billy has made the mamaliga.
- They called you Billy? - Yeah.
That's 'cause my name is Bill.
I know, but We all know you as William Shatner, thespian.
I know, and I want you to remember that.
So you understand where what I ate and where I came from.
This was the This was the peasant food.
Your relative never would have been here.
Not only would they have never been in the castle, they would have been Oh, killed.
The Duke was here in the 1300s.
The castle was built.
And the peasants all around looking at the castle.
My antecedents would be one of those people.
- Your who? - My The people who My - What'd you call them? - Antecedents.
A What? - Antecedents.
- Relatives.
- Relatives.
- Ante Antecedents.
The people that made him.
Why don't you just say, "relatives?" - Well - I'm telling you, my people - Yeah? - They don't understand that word.
Antecedents? Antecediants? Antecediants? Antecedents.
It's hard to say.
Say "relatives.
" You say, "relatives.
" - Relatives.
- Now they understand.
But why you gotta say that, though? Because that's the first word that comes to mind.
Oh, well, you're See, that's the level of education you have, as opposed to the level of We both went to university.
What happened to your education? I got a P.
E.
degree.
Can you throw a spiral 75 yards? No, I cannot.
Then how smart am I? You know what I think is amazing? Here we are in Lithuania looking for Bill's heritage.
We joke with each other, we experience all these different things together, but here we are, really great friendship.
- Oh, boy.
- Correction.
Family.
And one family.
I just wish we had five separate bedrooms.
Oh, come on.
That's pushing it.

Pretty great.

I never thought I'd see anything that looked like this.
No, it's beautiful.
Modern buildings, and the old city over there.
And that must be the town hall.
This is amazing.
Have you ever seen so many churches? There used to be so many churches, Terry.
Of every religion.
Uhhuh.
And then they started fighting.
Eliminated them, huh? And synagogues.
Listen.
Hear the music? Uh, it's from over there.
You know, we do have a good time, and we get really silly.
But I really notice that Bill didn't quite get the satisfying ending to being here in Lithuania.
So I set up something really special for Bill.
I'm walking towards the beautiful square in Vilnius, and I hear music.
I like this.
I can make out the signs in the crowd.
I see the signs are for me.

How brave and how adventuresome the Lithuanian warriors were.

My soul is filled.
And now, let's dance! Celebrate the joy of life! Hey where you gonna go we're off to see the world We don't need to know, oh Oh, look at Bill.
He's lost in there.
I came to Lithuania prepared to have an experience.
But I had no idea of the gloriousness of the experiences that we would have.
This is the greatest idea to allow me to come to this country and explore my roots.
Lithuania A hundred years ago, my ancestors fled the country looking for a better life.
They gave me that better life.
I wanted to show my friends exactly that history.
Here we are, really great friendship.
Correction, family.

Here I am sitting on the throne.
I had enormously fulfilling moments.
Brings me back to a childhood memory.
My parents waiting expectantly.
Billy has made the mamaliga.
My stomach is full, but so is my soul.
I may not have lived like a peasant, but I felt like a king.
I'm king of the castle here.
I may not have seen a ghost, but I sure spooked the guys.
He's opening the gates.
Guys, we're in Russia.
- Wait a minute.
- What's going on? Bill? To life! To life! Hey, we did drive into Russia, didn't we? Aww, come on, now.
I've come back home and told everybody, "Man, it was some thrill to go driving into Russia.
"
Birthplace of western civilization.
And the world of unparalleled culture and sophistication.

Yeehaw! Und die Chore singen fur dich Terry, we're getting out of here.
Today is the day that I go to Lithuania.
Selfie with the champ.
It's where my parents were born, and it's an adventure I'm really looking forward to doing.
Not Paris.
Not even Moscow.
Not even Hawaii.
Bill has a connection to Lithuania.
I don't even know where Lithuania is.
It's near Belarus.
I don't know where that is, either.
Lithuania, guys.
Everybody now! Lithuania I feel familiar here.
I'm looking for the food that I ate as a kid.
My father's history, the culture, - mother, my father - Bill.
Watch that car.
That car is meaningless to me.
This is a roundabout.
Whoa, wait up, there.
What are you doing? Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
You're up on the curb, there.
Why is the oldest person on Earth driving? He can't see.
He's got cartaracts.
Cartaracts? Cataracts? It's cataracts.
Can't see a lick.
This is the greatest idea, to allow me to come to this country and explore my roots.
Bucket list, check.
I hate that word, bucket list.
The top of my dreams, of desires, of things I've wanted to do all my life.
Yeah, you mean your bucket list? I mean my bucket list.
Sure, the guys are making jokes.
We're all having fun, because Lithuania's a fun place.
But Lithuania also has a history that I know, that my grandparents told me about.
This is my home The way the farmers work the fields and the way the villages were.
Where I go And I wanna take them there and have that experience.
- Look at this.
- Look at that.
This is something special.
So I'm taking these guys on a field trip, an interactive museum, to what a Lithuanian village must have looked like during the time my grandparents were here.
All right, gentlemen.
Here is a replica of the way my father's family must have lived.
- Your dad lived like this? - I think so.
This is an authentic experience, wearing these clothes here in a farm village.
We're gonna have the whole experience.
Isn't this remarkable? A farm village, how they must have lived hundreds of years ago.
Oh, you get on this side.
A simpler time with simpler people.
Hey, you gotta be equal in weight to do that.
Really, very simple people.
I can't even look at it.
Pythagoras would have had something to say about where the fulcrum is.
How did geometry get into Lithuania? Well, look at that.
In honesty, this feels just like some sort of elaborate hoax to get us to learn something about history.
- Jeff? - Jeff, you okay? Mom said come in.
It's dinner time.
Do we have to? It's the adventure of the past.
What was it like when our parents and grandparents lived? This is what it was like.
My father would have said, "Mama, are you there?" She would have said, "Get your ass in here!" Joseph! Joseph! My mother would say, "Get in here, or I'll give you the brush!" - That is really awful.
- No, no, no, no, no.
When food was being placed on the table, I was there.
What kind of food? Potato, always something fried, chicken.
You grew up a pretty husky kid? - No.
- Did you have goulash? - No.
- Did you have pierogis at all? We never invited them over.
I don't We didn't have - The Italian family? - I mean The Italian family? That lived near you? - We didn't have any Italians! - The Pierogis? No.
Guys, there's heaps of food in here.
Whoa.
And you can eat it, too.
Oh, wow.
Look at the bread.
Look it here.
- The bread is a challa.
- That's a challa.
For Friday night.
Man, that's some jam, here.
Is it good food, guys? It's delicious.
The food is the kind of food my grandfather would have eaten in the old homestead.
I'm king of the castle here.
Yeah.
Who the heck is she? - Yes.
- Yes.
No.
- My chores? - Yes.
What a great idea.
I hate chores.
Move, move, move, move, move, move! Who's this? On vacation, lady! I go on vacation to get away from work.
These guys are filthy rich.
Washing board.
You know what the washing board is? No.
They don't understand any of this.
I know how to do this.
And they're all excited about the way that people lived back then.
We grew up wanting to get away from this.
So I don't have to do these things.
- Is this your underwear? - Yeah.
You are no namby-pamby here, kiddo.
- Yeah.
- Rub-a-dub-dub.
And then when you're finished with it, and you've rung it out, you'd put it on the clothes line.
Hey, look, I didn't come here to watch Bill wash his underwear.
All right? Look how clean it is.
Gross.
There's one place at the museum that is a traditional Lithuanian spa, if you wanna try that.
Ooh.
I'm all in for that.
Spa day! Woo hoo! Thank God we're away from that mean lady.
This is probably it.
Hey, why don't you go in first? Cool.
Hello? Welcome.
How you doing? This is Lithuanian bath house.
Oh.
Maybe we do wanna do chores.
Wow.
I feel great, thank you.
Huh? - Obedient boys? - Obedient? What the heck kind of spa is this? - Heaven? - Yes.
All right.
- You ready? - Mmm-hmm.
Two hands.
Is the butter gonna be worth it? Why don't we just go to the store? Seriously? Does this look like a spa to you? I thought I saw "spa.
" I thought it was gonna be good.
Didn't switches and leaves kind of get your attention? There was no pictures.
I need pictures.
Oh, yeah.
- That's it! - Got them! Got them! Is there anything else but physical chores? Oh! She's rough.
Does that bring you back to your childhood? - Is this like your mother? - Yeah.
Exactly like my grandmother.
Whoa.
You know, if you listen to the tone - Yeah? - You can harken back to - What tone? - Yeah.
To Please! Shut up.
I'm a little saddened by my experience.
So, hey, enough of the peasant life.
I faced it, embraced it.
See you again.
I wanna do things more my style.
Let's go explore.
There's a ghost in here.
I've never heard of finding a ghost.
They find you.
I am an expert in goats.
Let me introduce the first one.
We're gonna have a walk off.
A goat walk off.
Cibute.
Cibute.
Whoa George What in the what in the Let a man sleep.
One, two, three.
Lithu, Lithu, Lithuania I love you so, you're so green-ia The village wasn't everything I hoped for.
But I hope the guys give what I have in mind a chance.
All right, guys.
So listen.
I have researched everything here as best I could.
And I have found a place to live while we're here that you're gonna love.
Just wait until they see where I have them staying.
Trust me.
Uhoh.
Isn't it great? We're gonna go there.
And we're gonna stay there.
And we're gonna be entertained there.
Wait a minute, wait a minute, we're sleeping there? Is this place haunted? No, it's not haunted.
It's Ghosts live in it.
Oh.
Trakai Castle.
This castle was built for the Duke.
It defied enemies.
There are ghosts in these walls.
Who cares if it's haunted? Hey, we're grown men.
Does it have a spa? Shall we? All right, guys.
This is the castle.
So who gets to have a castle all to themselves? Excuse me.
I do.
Uh It's, uh It's locked.
I don't understand it.
- Look.
- Open now.
How did you do that? I pushed it in.
King Shatner has arrived.
Prepare the main King's castle's quarters.
This is a hotel? This place is older than Bill.
I'm staying with Henry.
- You hear that? - Yes, I do.
That's scary.
- That's ghostly.
- Yeah.
If I see a ghost, Jack, I'm burning rubber.
- That's a storm.
- No.
You think it's a storm.
Yeah.
Could be the ghosts.
Wow.
Check this out.
Look at this building.
Amen.
- I can dig it.
- Wow.
Look at the size of this room.
TB is glad to be here! Is this the Presidential Suite? Look at the tapestry and vaulted ceiling.
Now this is how I imagined my Lithuanian homecoming would be.
I see a throne here.
Kings, castle, throne, come on.
Help! The irony here is my poor people in the villages around never even conceived of coming into the castle.
Here I am sitting on the throne.
Move over, peasant.
There's a new king in town.
What are you doing? King Terry Bradshaw.
It's got a nice ring.
I like it.
Hear ye, hear ye! The court's now in session.
The honorable King Bradshaw will now hear your complaints.
Step up, my child.
I never imagined sharing the throne.
It's my throne.
I'm the peasant family known as the Shatners.
Yes, Shatner? We would just like some bread.
- You want bread? - Yes, please.
Get some money and go get bread.
Get out of my sight.
25 lashes for you in the courtyard.
Don't bother the King with that kind of pity stuff.
Kinda like being on this throne.
Get up, George! Come over here and stand in front of me and let me pass judgment.
- Put the camera down, son.
- Sure.
Come talk to King Bradshaw.
- Okay, fine.
- First of all, let me say one thing.
Yes.
- In the King's presence - Yes.
Learn how to dress properly.
Red, pink, purple, green, and brown shoes.
No go for me.
You got it, buddy? Coming from the guy who wears Hawaiian shirts every day, I happen to like color.
I think that it's festive.
That's one way to put it.
Let's go explore and go look at the dark, cavernous rooms and find out what rooms are what rooms.
There's a ghost in here.
I've always been intrigued by the spirit world.
See, I wanna have a real experience.
Maybe my spirit world the spirits of my ancestors are here in the castle.
Let's do it.
Maybe they'll get after Terry.
Hey, if I see a ghost, I am outta this castle.
I've never heard of finding a ghost.
They find you.
Pretty much guarantee this is gonna end in a broken hip.
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh! That's crazy! You got me good.
Watch your step, guys.
Hey, ghosts, show yourself.
- What is that? - What is that? Look in the corner.
Oh,.
- Jeffrey! - Jeff, you dog.
Come on.
It's not funny.
I'm already jumpy enough.
Listen to me, guys.
Give me a serious moment, and let us try and feel the presence of a ghost.
Okay, okay.
Here we go.
Oh, my God.
What was that? Oh, God.
Get out of here.
Jeff, you stinking head.
Oh, God.
I didn't fart.
What? A little gassy.
Oh.
- Jeffrey! - Jeff! Let's go! Calm down on the old shouting.
- What? - You're like, "Jeff! Jeff, let's go! Come on!" You think I'm 12 years old, and I'm not.
No, no, not 12.
We realize you're a 35-year-old.

What an important part he played in my whole boxing career.

Not only would they have never been in the castle, they would have been Oh, killed.

I never thought I'd see anything that looked like this.
No, it's beautiful.
Modern buildings, and the old city over there.
And that must be the town hall.
This is amazing.
Have you ever seen so many churches? There used to be so many churches, Terry.
Of every religion.

And then they started fighting.
Eliminated them, huh? And synagogues.
Listen.
Hear the music? Uh, it's from over there.

I like this.
I can make out the signs in the crowd.
I see the signs are for me.
Welcome home, Bill! And I am absolutely surprised at this moment.

He's lost in there.
I came to Lithuania prepared to have an experience.
But I had no idea of the gloriousness of the experiences that we would have.
This is the greatest idea to allow me to come to this country and explore my roots.
Lithuania A hundred years ago, my ancestors fled the country looking for a better life.
They gave me that better life.
I wanted to show my friends exactly that history.
Here we are, really great friendship.
Correction, family.

My poor people never even conceived of coming into the castle.
Here I am sitting on the throne.
I had enormously fulfilling moments.
Brings me back to a childhood memory.
My parents waiting expectantly.
Billy has made the mamaliga.
My stomach is full, but so is my soul.
I may not have lived like a peasant, but I felt like a king.
I'm king of the castle here.
I may not have seen a ghost, but I sure spooked the guys.
He's opening the gates.
Guys, we're in Russia.
- Wait a minute.
- What's going on? Bill? To life! To life! Hey, we did drive into Russia, didn't we? Aww, come on, now.
I've come back home and told everybody, "Man, it was some thrill to go driving into Russia.
