FYI:
The style I tried
to use with this episode was from two directors. Sam Mendes (Road
to Perdition) and Steven Spielberg (Minority Report).
We've seen people
zap in and out of places before, I just thought I would show it again so
that later it was a task that the audience would be able to recognize as
being advantageous to Ghost.
The reason why
Ghost says that the computer was torn up and that all the good parts
were gone was going to serve a purpose later in the story. Josh
was a boy robot. That is the reason why he has no past, because it
wasn't created. He has intuitive programs built into him and that
is why he seems to have the gift. Josh's father's name was going
to be Sam (Systems of Artificial Machinery) and that was going to be the
place where Delta finally was fixed and had the metal plate taken out of
his head. Josh was going to be an unknowing spy for Kahn.
Even though he was killed, I was going to still try and put the hints
in, but I forgot.
The reason Ghost
and Kahn talk is just to set up that something is not quite right with
this situation.
The World Crime
League is actually a huge corporation, Having the second unit was just
put in to show that there is more the the WCL than we have shown thus
far.
We filmed their
episode and the beginning of Part 7 at the same time. Blough has
the same clothes on.
With Nic, I was
trying to show that he had clearly pushed himself to the edge.
Jordan actually
filmed this episode before he did Part 7. He brought a lot of
intensity to the part.
David Igby was born
in the United States, with his twin brother Brian Igby who makes
self-help tapes. They were both put up for adoption when they were
born in 1951. Brian Igby was adopted by some right-wing
conservatives while David Igby was adopted by a vietnameese couple who
moved back to Vietnam shortly after The United States entered the war.
There David joined the army and that is where he met Tim the Tennis Pro.
Since then, they have remained good friends.
"There is no spoon"
is an obvious reference to The Matrix.
Jordan with his
arms up was supposed to mirror Willem Defoe in Platoon.
The shot of Shull
running along the sidewalk consisted of Nathan driving the van and Nic
filming out the side. They both did an awesome job with the speed
they drove and the way they kept the fence framed up perfectly.
Nic filmed all the
parts with Delta.
