Mark Bridges won an Oscar for Costume Design at the Academy Awards Sunday night and gave a speech that came in at just 36 seconds, earning him a jet ski and a free stay at the Days Inn in beautiful Lake Havasu in Arizona.

Kimmel noted that Mirren did not come with the jet ski, unfortunately.

A little bit later in the evening, Kimmel sweetened the deal to all the nominees in attendance by offering up a free stay at a Days Inn in Lake Havasu.

At the end of the awards, Bridges came out with a life vest on top of his brand new jet ski alongside Mirren.

It pays to keep it brief, people.
