Caught drinking beer on the beach as a Southern California teenager and thinking the undercover cop was a lifeguard, Samuel lied that his name was "Samuel Todd Connors". When the police phoned in and found the name did not exist, Sam was arrested. When he cleared the misdemeanor a year later, Samuel was surprised to find his police file now had a huge "A.K.A. Samuel Todd Connors" on it and vowed to name a character in every script he wrote with his new official illegal alias.
