— -- Téa Leoni is one busy woman. She has a new movie, Jurassic Park III, in theaters. And she and husband David Duchovny have a 2-year-old daughter, Madelaine West. But the actress finds time to take the PrimeTime Q&A on secret passions and super powers.

Q: If you could go back in time and be anyone in history, who would you want to be?A: Well, I would want to be someone really sort of sexy and great and powerful change the world.

Q: What would you say is your favorite song?A: Anything by Led Zeppelin. "Tangerine" comes to mind.

Q: What really makes you upset?A: What makes me really upset? One thing? Can it be like the whole day? Can I give you the day that I had last week? The first thing that comes to mind is when you're driving in the left lane in the freeway and someone is not passing. And they're just sitting there and there's another guy in the center lane and another guy, the slow guy, is in the right lane and somehow it's making a blockade and the guy in the left lane is supposed to pass and move over or go and join the buddy in the right-hand lane and he doesn't do it. Frankly that's a biggy for me.

Q: What would you order for your last meal? A: Well, I would start with some french fries for a little starter course and then probably segue right into some pizza with scallops on it and then I'd probably have some lobsters and then I'd like spaghetti with a sort of bolognese meat sauce, kind of peppery. Maybe a little fettucini after that and then ice cream, certainly, would play in there somewhere and maybe definitely Twinkies. Line them up, as many as I Do I need to stop? Can it be a big meal?

Q: Aside from David, who would you want to be stranded with on a desert island?A: Aside from David, who would I like to be stranded on a desert island with? And this is going to air and David would see it? I'm not answering that one I'm going to go unromantic. If I had to be stranded on an island this is not very sexy, but it would be my daughter.
