He says he embraces playing criminals. Spoiler apert: Francis Capra is on board to do the show.

So far, Kristen Bell, Jason Dohring, Percy Daggs III, Enrico Colantoni and Francis Capra are in, and Chris Lowell is out. Ryan tries to persuade Ken to join, but he will only agree if he has a dance number accompanied by the Laker Girls, or if he’s filming the show for the Internet. Their conversation is interrupted when Ken complains about music coming from another room. A man practicing a dance tells Ryan and Ken off and continues on with his rehearsal.
Ryan comes up with a martial arts scene in the show, which is about to be filmed in a few days. Ken Marino isn’t convinced and tells Ryan that he sees him doing this on his own.
