He was scheduled for Saturday night. I got there a little
later than I hoped and my fellow hounds told me he already entered the
building. They also told me he was great and I should just go in the theater
and track him down. I was hesitant at doing this. For me, it’s a little too stalker-ish. I don’t mind waiting all night outside of the
theater but heading inside and tracking down someone was different. Yes, it’s a fine line.
Once he’s inside, what
are the chances he’ll come out again? Since
I was told no one else had shown up, the chances were good I could catch the
rest of the people I wanted as they drove up. I might make this a quick night. With
this rationalization in mind, I entered the theater and found him.
Stephen was a social butterfly. He was talking with everyone
and not staying with any group for long. He looked up and saw me. It was like he wanted to leave where he was
and move on. He actually came toward me.
Sheepishly I held up my clipboard and photo
and asked for a signature. He smiled and
waved me close and quickly signed.
I mentioned how much I was enjoying his character in
Californication. He said they just
started filming the new season. He added
that if the first episode is any indication, it was going to be a great season. I told him I was happy the series was
renewed. I added the last few seasons had
ended in a way that I thought the series was cancelled. He told me that no one ever sure about the
next season so they ended the seasons that way on purpose.
We exchanged a few more words and I thanked him. I didn’t want to over stay my welcome.
As it turned out, he was in and out of the theater all
night. He was talking with everyone. He was
stopped a few more times for photos or autographs and he always obliged.
