This story is crazy — and so random!!
Troian Bellisario, who stars on Pretty Little Liars, had an absent-minded moment over the weekend when, getting ready for a hike in El Lay, she left a bag of her stuff outside her car with her phone inside!

An enterprising young man named Jack Wagner found it soon thereafter on the street, and decided to do something about it!
After using Troian’s phone to text a few of her contacts in order to return all the stuff to its rightful owner, Wagner got no answer, so he took to Instagram — yes, Troian’s Instagram, with seven MILLION followers — and posted a little note (below):
Hey i found your phone/bag outside griffith. I texted some contacts in ur phone with my number but nobody’s responding. I gotta head out in 30 mins please hit me up. Lol you have a lot of followersA photo posted by Troian ellisario (@sleepinthegardn) on Apr 23, 2016 at 1:27pm PDT
OMG!!! A stranger has a celeb’s Insta account, phone, passwords, texts, everything!!!
But wait — it turns out this Jack Wagner dude was REALLY cool — and Troian was, too!

Wagner had to leave and couldn’t wait around for Troian later in the day, so he took her stuff with him to ensure no one else would steal it — and their HIGHLarious game of phone tag began!
First, Wagner posted that he wanted to go to Coachella, but was mad that the band Disturbed wasn’t playing there (below):
why isnt DISTURBED playing at coachella? My uncle tony told me they were headlining and i believed him until now. Apparently he lied to me! Every band at coachella is a joke compared to disturbed. Im extremely upset about this #coachella2016 guys never trust ur uncles especially if their name is tonyA photo posted by Troian ellisario (@sleepinthegardn) on Apr 23, 2016 at 1:37pm PDT
After that point, Troian took control of her Insta account back remotely, telling all her IG followers (below):
“Guys. I am so so sorry. I just got a hold of the person who has my phone. (My new phone because apparently my old one was hacked) and I am rushing to get it. Thank you for all the concern and alerts. This will teach me not to unpack my car before a hike when I’m daydreaming like an idiot. Also thank you @docdanger for loaning me your phone. I changed all my Pw but I apologize for the previous posts and if they weirded anyone out. Xx.”
Aw!!!
But since she didn’t have access to her phone, she decided to document all of Jack’s activities with it — and even helped the guy out a little bit!

Wagner mentioned he wanted to go to Coachella for the festival’s second weekend, and noted that he saw tickets to the music fest in her bag, so Troian did the incredibly noble thing, and let him have ’em!
Ch-ch-check out the exchange (below):

Whoa!!!
Even Wagner couldn’t believe his luck regarding the Coachella tickets… but Troian made sure he kept her Snapchat account open so that she could observe his activities on her phone:
I watching u on snap, Jack. ├░┼╕ΓÇÿΓé¼A photo posted by Troian ellisario (@sleepinthegardn) on Apr 23, 2016 at 3:30pm PDT
And that’s where the fun REALLY started!!!
Wagner managed to get on stage with Skrillex during his set at the festival, snapping a shot that Troian then posted to IG in disbelief of her own (below)!!!
Okay The guy who has my phone and my wristbands is now on stage with @skrillex this is a better #coachella2016 than I had. Enjoy it Jack. My snapchat is the best it’s ever been. gaia17 if you wanna watch. LOLA photo posted by Troian ellisario (@sleepinthegardn) on Apr 23, 2016 at 6:13pm PDT
LOLz! It’s actually pretty adorable that Wagner refers to her as ‘Trojan’ instead of Troian!
Somehow, Jack also got to go backstage with Zedd — and the DJ posted a very special snap for Troian… on her own Snapchat account (below)!!!
Alright COME ON!!!! @zedd seriously Jack!A video posted by Troian ellisario (@sleepinthegardn) on Apr 23, 2016 at 11:32pm PDT
OMG!!!
Hours later, Troian got a little worried about Jack’s whereabouts when he disappeared for a while (hey, it’s Coachella and that can happen, right?!), so she texted the guy (below):
Well at least he’s not dead. #jacksbackA photo posted by Troian ellisario (@sleepinthegardn) on Apr 24, 2016 at 2:52pm PDT
LOLz!!! Hashtag Jack’s Back!
The meetup was as epic as you might imagine, too — a meeting of the minds, if you will. Politicians could learn from this diplomacy (below):
@versace_tamagotchi came to my house. Watched #GOT gave me my phone and won #coachella2016 #jacksbackA photo posted by Troian ellisario (@sleepinthegardn) on Apr 24, 2016 at 11:01pm PDT
