Well...you see him later on in the trailer, right after the lights come back on after the first "quake"...and he's standing with a girl who's *apparently* a g/f -- but I'm just guessing. Anyway, the girl is new, too, and may be just an extra for all I know...

...but I'm just wondering if there's any significance to this guy walking in with Rob. Seems like if he was just an extra, they wouldn't even need him for that shot; wouldn't it have been easier to just have Rob walk in alone?

I think the guy stands out as someone who might be significant, because he's taking a picture and, in this whole thing, pictures have certainly been important.

But, if you watch the trailer, frame-by-frame, when it zooms in to Rob coming in the front door, you can see about three people holding their cell-phones up over the crowd to also 'capture the moment.' They're on the left of the frame as the camera zooms in.

Other than the camera, there's the fact that he walks in with Rob, but in a surprise party situation, that role (the person who brings the 'surprisee' to the party) can be played by anyone. In fact, sometimes the less well-known the better - a close friend might kill the surprise. Just a thought.

11 dollar guy

[Melampus]

That all works for me, about the $11 guy. The thing that makes him possibly significant is that the cameraman owes him $11. That establishes some kind of previous relationship, i.e., he might be more than just a random person at the party.

Still, that's not much - he might have no further connection with the story.

On an unrelated note: there was mention on a myspace page of a "Niles" who was Lily's roommate. Anybody remember where that's mentioned - I can't find it and it's driving me nuts....

A pirate walks into a bar with a steering wheel on his crotch. The bartender says, "hey, buddy, did you know there's a steering wheel on your crotch?" The pirate replies: "Aye, she's drivin' me nuts!"

Oh - good call. You're right - he's talking to Rob. Can't believe I overlooked that.

That increases the odds he's someone important, but only just a bit.

And speaking of mystery people and assumptions at the same time;

I had assumed that the "Rob's Awesome. I'm gonna miss him." girl was
Blake Lively/Jamie Lascano.

Now they're discussing the possibility on another thread that they're three
different people.

Godz...

Yeah it is strange that theyve introduced possibly TWO blond girl characters without identifying the "robs awesome" girl who was featured so prominently in the trailer. it actually seems like that blond girl was in charge of the party being the one who informed everybody that rob was coming through the door and telling people to be quiet.
