When Scott first walks into the room and Emily (Sara Gilbert) tells him she will be right out, Little House on the Prairie (1974) is on the TV, featuring Gilbert's sister, 'Melissa Gilbert', as Laura Ingalls.
Sara Gilbert agreed to do the movie because she is a friend of the movie's writer, Christopher Landon, son of the late Michael Landon, who starred in "Little House on the Prarie" with Melissa Gilbert, Sara's sister. Having the show on the TV when Scott first enters the room is a witty acknowledgment of this connection.
