What's left behind the scenes

- Kim Richards' younger sister, Kyle Richards, played Tia in the flashbacks.
- During the filming of a fight scene between the boys, the actor playing Track accidentally swung the bat too hard and hit young Ike Eisenmann. For this reason, if you look closely, you can sometimes see a greenish bruise under Tony’s left eye in some scenes.
