The final season of One Tree Hill is a time to look back fondly at nine seasons of drama and suspense. But for the cast and crew, it seems like it’s also one last time to goof off.

In a series of new behind-the-scenes videos from the final season, we see the lighter side of One Tree Hill. We get to see Jackson Brundage and Chad Michael Murray bonding, creator Mark Schwahn cursing and getting a massage, and stars Tyler Hilton and Stephen Colletti putting in a grueling day’s work with strippers.

Now enjoy some behind-the-scenes videos which seem to be from episodes 6 and 7 (the one directed by James Lafferty and the one where Chad Michael Murray returned).
