CLAIM TO FAME

Lovable Sancho Panza-by-the-sea figure who brought some daffy dash to the time-honored tradition of freeloading. Since the dwindling profile from his OJ testimony has diminished his desirability as a good-time house guest, Kato gets by playing Johnny-on-the-Spot for a certain Hollywood dreamboat, who in turn is amused by the idea of having a stooge nearly twice his age.

BIGGEST ACCOMPLISHMENT

Survived one week on the witness stand without completing a single sentence.

LEO CONNECTION

Able to score fat lines of coke in three phone calls or less and goes the extra mile to keep the posse amused.
