Crew Confessions:
“Anyone associated with the film (or, indeed, the DC/Baltimore film scene) will immediately notice that some of the uglier (and more public) aspects of The Situation were glossed over, or omitted entirely. This was a decision on which we were unanimous. From the beginning, we've never wanted anything more than to resolve things and then move forward; and we hope that it is clear that we're doing thus.

We love and appreciate everyone who has stood by us: cast, crew, family and friends. Thank you for believing in us at a time when it was really hard for Laura, Brian and I to believe in ourselves. It won't be forgotten, and will make the journey's end all the more poignant.”
- Erik Kristopher Myers

“The Situation was an enormously difficult video to construct, and I wouldn’t have been able to do it without my legion of ‘consultants.’ A special thanks to Walter Meyer, Ray Meyer, Kathy Bishop, Elizabeth Bishop, Amanda Willbanks, Joseph Pollack, & Melissa Riggall for sharing their thoughts with me. And an extra special thanks to Maria Meyer, my wife, who has seen more Luck of the Draw than anyone else in the world, and hasn’t complained once. She’s very tough.”
