>Dan Aykroyd lost it at one point during shooting on the Paramount lot. In full "Conehead" attire, the actor threw a mega screaming fit at the studio's Melrose Avenue gate after his personal wardrobe person was reprimanded by a security guard for busting the lot's 8-mile-an-hour speed limit. Aykroyd was so peeved after the incident - and after hearing that one of his production assistants was given a hard time when he tried to enter the lot late one night - that he burst into the guard station and trashed it. He threw everything on the floor, pulled one of the phones out of the wall, threw papers, knocked the computer on the floor and held the button down on the wooden arm (that lets the cars in) and started motioning incoming cars to 'please come right in ... welcome to Paramount Pictures.' A female security guard witnessing the incident got so upset that she hyperventilated and had to go to the lot's infirmary. At one point during his tirade, Aykroyd commandeered one of the studio's golf carts and drove around screaming and cursing.

Well shit, the tough guy act and mask got pulled right the fuck off after a six foot dude with a giant cone on his cranium comes barrelling towards you in the midst of what seems to be a combination of a cocaine come-down and a asperger's tantrum. I mean, eight fucking miles an hour is enough to get you a citation on the Paramount Pictures lot in a fucking golf cart? Dan could probably run faster than that at that point in his life.

Right but remember: he's in full costume, he's got a giant cone on his head literally blending into his cranium, he may have had some space-booger sugar caked under his nostrils, he's uncontrollably going off on fucking speed limits and golf karts and other incoherent shit while fucking with the door gate to the studio lot which was probably what was worrying her the most and he's trashing her fucking office. On top of all that, this giant mass of tard rage vaguely if not completely resembling one of the Ghostbusters is behind it all and swearing as he commandeers another golfkart and goes sailing off into the lot.
I actually kinda envy her witnessing that; I don't know if I would be hyperventilating or having a panic attack, but I do know after a cetain point I would just stand back and allow the chaos to unfold, be one with the moment as it was happening, you know?

When you start getting into the personal lives of actors, it's funny how often it turns out their on screen performance isn't about being good actors but about them being weirdos who simply bring themselves to a role.

>This episode was being filmed when the 1994 Northridge earthquake occurred on January 17 of that year. Armin Shimerman and Edward Wiley left the Paramount Pictures lot in full Ferengi and Cardassian makeup respectively.
Imagine you're trying to get home at a quarter to five in the morning after an earthquake. There's debris random places in the roads, powerlines down everywhere, no lights other than your headlights, and you see someone in street clothes but with Cardassian makeup on. Given the context, it would be brain exploding.

It's a reasonable cultural value. The core of an actor's job is to be deceptive. Our current culture doesn't care about honesty or truth very much but in older cultures, those were valued extremely highly. In that context, someone wanting to pretend to be someone else was reason enough to create suspicions about their character.
