Megyn Kelly plays a Delta pilot's request for medical assistance as she examines reports that Selma Blair was arrested following an airplane incident. The pilot reports minor injuries to a flight attendant and a passenger, giving the segment a different kind of source from the host's commentary.

In "Actress Selma Blair Arrested After Breakdown on PLANE," Kelly recounts reports that Blair attempted to open a cabin door and assaulted people aboard the aircraft. She also plays audio credited to TMZ of Blair being removed from the flight, followed by footage labeled as showing her release on bond after an arraignment on assault charges. These are accusations, not findings of guilt.

The upload is drawing attention even as Kelly's channel-wide daily views sit below their usual level. Its comment section has already become several times busier than a typical full first day, with air-travel restrictions a recurring subject.

Kelly later turns to Blair's memoir, Mean Baby, discussing passages in which the actress describes biting people when overwhelmed. The segment moves between those personal recollections, reported allegations and the flight's dispatch recording.
