Sean Penn - whose land has been ravaged by the fire - has had his trailer completely destroyed in the blaze.

Curtain Call
Willum, an architect, is about to lose the love of his life, Tansy, to her career. Their ostensible best friend Axel devises an outlandish and elaborate ruse to trick Willum into realizing where his true happiness lies. As the saying goes, with friends like these … The ruse involves the unexpected arrival of Rick Steadman, the man who saved Willum’s life in Vietnam a decade earlier and whose bravery gained them both Purple Hearts. The key fact is that Rick disappeared before Willum regained consciousness, so he doesn’t know what he looks like or what kind of man he is. When Rick arrives, his heroism is forgotten as he turns out to be the nerd named in the title. Not just a nerd, but a super-annoying, make-you-crazy ninja nerd. From this premise, all manner of bizarre activities follow.
