Bryan Cranston Scores Los Gatos Kid A Prom Date

In a now viral video, a Los Gatos boy asked Bryan Cranston to help him get a prom date, Bryan Cranston style.

This was how it went down:

When Stefan Montana bumped into "Breaking Bad" star Cranston following a performance of his Broadway show "All the Way" Thursday, Montana asked Cranston to record a message asking his friend Maddie to be his date to the Los Gatos High School prom Saturday.

Cranston obliged, using his trademark voice to convince Maddie: "If you don't go to the prom with Stefan, then maybe your best course of action would be to tread lightly."

"Maddie would you go to prom with me?" A beaming Stefan asks next, standing right next to Cranston.

Stefan tweeted out a link to the YouTube video on April 10, and it has been viewed more than 245,000 times since then.

He later tweeted that Maddie had said "yes."

Stefan's YouTube video was picked by by several media outlets, including the New York Daily News and The Today Show.

NBC Bay Area has reached out to Stefan for comment.
