The scene where Peter has a road flirtation with a beautiful young woman driving a sports car is directly inspired by an iconic scene in the 1983 movie. The ending is altered, playing on the theme of inattention to the road leading to a either an accident or a near accident; here, the voloptuous blonde is killed when her car crashes head-on collision with a semitrailer truck (unlike the movie, where Clark barely avoids disaster)
