Drew Barrymore was detained at a concert during a date with one of her exes in the late 90s.

The 50 First Dates actress sat down with ex-boyfriend Luke Wilson, whom she dated from 1996 to 1998 (per People), as part of the January 16th episode of her eponymous talk show, and asked him a series of "rapid-fire questions," the last being: "What's a memory of us that makes you laugh?"

The Legally Blonde star answered quickly, taking fans back to a time when Barrymore would cook him a special Sunday meal.

"Drew would make...on Sundays, she'd make kind of this black beans and rice dish for me so I'd be like sitting and watching golf like 'This is great! Hollywood is great!'"

Barrymore chimed in, revealing that she just thought of a memory that "wasn't funny at the time." Wilson immediately knew she was talking about the unforgettable experience they shared at a Beck concert nearly 20 years ago. The beloved talk show host proceeded, shining a bright spotlight on the time she and Wilson were "detained" during a Beck show back when they were an item.

"I got stopped for public urination, and there I was peaking out of the bushes like 'Hi,' she laughed. Wilson continued, revealing:

"They detained us for a little bit, and I guess you know like, frisked us," Barrymore interjected: "They gave us like a warning. We got let go with a warning."

The former pair turned friends assured they were released from authorities just in time to see Beck perform and that it was a "great concert."

Watch Wilson and Barrymore reminisce one of their most memorable dates in the January 16th episode of The Drew Barrymore Show below!
