Late Night host Jimmy Fallon is no Candy Crush master by himself, but a helping hand from actor Mandy Patinkin of Homeland and The Princess Bride fame could help turn that around.

In the segment, which originally aired on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon, Patinkin steps in as a mysterious mentor. After Patinkin teaches Fallon how identify colors and patterns and clear the level, the two sing a Candy Crush-themed song together.

Watch the full clip above. Other game-related Fallon skits include exploring the PS4's PlayRoom with Ice-T, demoing the Xbox One and getting gamers to play with their moms.
