What we know is worth $5,000,000…
…EACH!
Well, more accurately -$5,000,000.
I’ll explain later.
We met our contacts, (above pic)
Ed and Pat at 2pm at Haleiwa.
(pronounced ha lai eva)
(Our cousin made me learn the correct pronunciation of all the hawaiian signs.
I kept butchering the language.)
Ed is the guy who knew Shannon
(go back to previous posts if you’re lost…no pun intended)
Ed also attended the University of Hawaii were he studied film
under Pat.
Pat’s students ended up as interns for the set of Lost.
Amazing the all the links in the chain that got us here.
Down a dirt road we arrived at “base camp.”
Base camp is where the “roach coach” and actor’s trailers are.
(roach coach is a portable kitchen housed inside a trailer)
Once there we were met by Jess, the talent coordinator.
She works directly under the producer, Jean.
(You may notice I don’t post last names of anyone. Just in case.)
We got a very warm reception.
Jess presented all of us with leis and gave Colin a special visitors package.
The packet included:
Lost mags,
autographed photos of the cast,
a Dharma Initiative hat
and a season 6 shirt (not yet available to the public. SCORE!)
Colin bought this new shirt because
He wanted to look “nice.”
Fun fact.
Jess left to go get “something.”
She returned with contracts.
We knew we’d have to sign confidentiality agreements.
Which makes it even cooler.
We are legally bound not to tell or show what we saw on the set.
If we do, we can be sued for up to $5,000,000 a peice,
which put our groups potential net worth at…
-$25,000,000.
Not, only can we not tell you what we saw,
but we can’t tell you who we saw.
Lost is a show which people die often.
So, telling you who we saw
is also a spoiler!
Which is why the only photo of the costume trailer we can show you…
…is us playing with the fake blood!
And I can’t show you the outside of the actor’s trailers
because their names are on them.
But here’s a peek inside from the outside.
Haha.
I will tell you this:
We met many people.
Every single one of them was friendly.
And since, Jess had told them we were coming
and sent them to this site,
they knew Colin by name.
Shook his hand.
Some hung out with him between shots.
The visit was better than I could have hoped.
So, this is the last thing I can show you.
Us entering.
Until, episode 7 airs at the end of February.
Then we can run our mouths!
Thank you again, LOST!
P.S. We also did an unofficial Lost tour on day 5. Stay tuned.
That was fun.
Awareness Bracelet: "Save Colin – Terminate the Tumor!"
Totally awesome post! Great memory of that day! So glad it all worked out and you had a total blast Colin!
