Dakota Johnson's "Home" Tour That Isn't Quite What It Seems

The tour gets stuck at the entrance. The door won't open, and Johnson explains that it is an antique, "a spiritually evolved door" that grants entry by reading a visitor's aura. Since it won't let the crew in, she concludes it must not like theirs. After a moment she gets it open and tells everyone to "speak kindly to the door" on the way in.

Next she describes her design philosophy. She says she wanted the house to make her "feel nothing" when she walks in, because she is "so colorful on the inside" that her surroundings need to be bland so the two kinds of energy don't clash.

The first official object of affection sits by her bookshelves: a cookie jar she calls her favorite of all her cookie jars. She says she keeps chocolate chip cookies in it as a snack for reading. When she opens it, it is full of dirt. "I always mix these up," she says, then adds, "Sorry, Grandpa. Family is everything."

She calls the kitchen her favorite part of the house. She describes it as a space of "nourishment and wellness" and says she meal preps every week with fresh ingredients from her garden or the farmers market. The camera only catches her gesturing at the room and remarking on how beautiful it is.

She stops at a drawing and calls it one of her favorite objects, "so, so important" to her. She explains that her friend's kid drew it, and that it shows him and his cat. When she names the child, the name turns out to be Pam. She finishes with "What a talent."

Johnson calls her office the most important room in the house, "because the most important work I do is with myself." This is where she says her affirmations, which include "You belong here," "You are good at math," and "You are like so beautiful." She adds that in this life you only really have yourself "and skincare."

Her last collection is matchbooks, which she says she gathers from the "magical places" she has been lucky enough to visit during her career. Her example is Ruth's Chris Steak House, which she says she loves, and the memories come flooding back.

As she thanks the crew and says what a nice time she had showing them her house, a woman walks in and says, "Dakota, we've talked about this." Johnson seems surprised and says she wasn't expecting her yet. She introduces the woman as Lisa, her therapist. Lisa tells her "No more," and Johnson answers "Yes, ma'am." On the way out, Lisa adds, "Dakota, put it back," and confirms their next sessions: "See you Wednesday. And Friday."

The ending recasts the whole tour. The house and the "objects of affection" apparently weren't hers, and the video closes without explaining any further.
