In the season 5 premiere of Funny Or Die Original Sketches, titled "Audio Tour with Will Forte & Erinn Hayes," the famed actors take audiences through an amusing and unpredictable tour of a museum.

As the title suggests, the sketch begins with Forte and Hayes each donning headphones for an audio tour of the museum's collection. However, it soon becomes clear that the audio guide is anything but ordinary. Forte's guide repeatedly instructs him to touch the artwork and even encourages him to steal a priceless painting. Meanwhile, Hayes is treated to an audio tour that includes inappropriate comments and a bizarre backstory about a mysterious murder in the museum.

As the tour progresses, the two comedic actors play off each other brilliantly, with Forte playing the overly obedient student to Hayes' more skeptical and sardonic approach. The characters interact with one another intermittently, trying to make sense of the increasingly absurd tour they find themselves on.

The sketch takes a number of unexpected turns, with the audio guide becoming increasingly unhinged and bizarre. Forte and Hayes find themselves wandering through a hidden room with strange and unsettling exhibits, before ultimately encountering the tour's creator - a man who seems to have lost touch with reality and is now fully consumed by his own creation.

The episode showcases the unique brand of humor that has made Funny Or Die a staple of the comedy world, with a perfect blend of physical comedy, witty wordplay, and unexpected twists and turns. The chemistry between Forte and Hayes is undeniable, and their fearlessly committed performances make the sketch feel fresh and spontaneous even through multiple viewings.

Overall, "Audio Tour with Will Forte & Erinn Hayes" is a hilarious and subversive take on the classic museum audio tour trope. It's a great example of the kind of irreverent humor that has made Funny Or Die a mainstay of the comedy landscape and promises to be a great start to an exciting season of original sketches.
