Season 1, Episode 1 Question


Toward the very begining when they just landed in Arkansas Nicole is loading her bag in the back and says "Portus, Help me." Whats with that? I'm sure I didn't hear it wrong because I've seen the episode many times and hear it every time. Whats with that? Is that her REAL name?

It could been one of these two things. Either Nicole has or had a nick name for Paris, as they call each other different names through the series. Or it could had been the fact that they had some help such as their security guards or someone there with them to help them with tough situations.

Remember, that we only see about 20 minutes of days of filming. I remember reading way back that the girls had an entourage with them during the filming. Also during season 2 they did had money for food and gas, and even a driver. Paris would drive when the cameras were rolling, but other than that they had a driver. Also remember reading that during the camp season, the girls were staying at a hotel after they would film their scenes, appose to staying at the camp like the show suggests. I think it was the same thing with season 2.
