If you watch one thing this year, this should be it.

Johnny Depp and Amber Heard have been forced to make a straight-faced apology video by the Australian government for breaching biosecurity laws in the country. The duo smuggled their dogs, Pistol and Boo, into the country in May. Heard faced court on Monday, where she was given a A$1000 good behaviour bond, for her total disregard of Australian law.

The unbelievable video, which looks like the couple have been held hostage in North Korea, was played to court on Monday as Heard and Depp were in attendance. It was later released by their No. 1 enemy, Deputy Prime Minister Barnaby Joyce, on his Facebook page.

"Australia is free of many pests and diseases that are commonplace around the world. That is why Australia has to have such strong biosecurity laws,” Heard said. "Australians are just as unique, both warm and direct. When you disrespect Australian law, they will tell you firmly,” Depp continued.

Heard said she was "truly sorry" about bringing her dogs into Australia. "Declare everything when you enter Australia," Depp said, echoing the monotones of an airport Customs message.
