Harvard added a shorthanded goal at 7:55 to take a 2-0 lead. The rest of the period featured furious up-and-down action. Vermont put heavy pressure on Jonas by counterattacking with long passes to streaking forwards at center...
...then what? Instead of concentrating on the President-elect's appointments and agenda, we would see weeks of argument that he should not, in fact, be the new President. We would see the new Congress, whose first job is to certify or reject these votes, embroiled in furious partisan debate.

Speaking at New York's Museum of Modern Art in 1998, Lewis noted that Wilde was furious over a scene in which Conte kisses Jean Wallace (Wilde's wife at the time) and then disappears down below camera range, resulting in Wallace looking especially aroused. In the end, Lewis kept his job on the film - but one can't help but think that he included this...
