Bilson got her former co-star and boyfriend to appear on this week's episode of Welcome to the OC, Bitches! by resorting to an unusual tactic. "I was like, there's no way he's going to want to talk about it, there's no way he's going to do it," she tells People, going on to explain that the joyous occasion sprang from a heartbreaking event. "A dog that I had when we were on The O.C. recently passed away, so I sent him a text message and I was like, 'Thurman died. You have to say yes.' I basically bribed him with a dead dog."
