Originally Melvin had a whole series of scenes that explained
his character's back-story and his reasons for always wanting everyone
to like him. However these scenes were cut from the script and never filmed
due to budget constraints. The studio also made them change the character
of Keiko from a high school student to a college student, as it was felt
that her being that young would be to risqué.
