Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • Why do the characters have such unusual names?
    • Bill, Tom and Ellen?
  • So what did Ellen see in Billy Fish, anyway?
    • Yeah, on the one hand, it's kind of weird since Fish is a bit sexist at times towards other women. But on the other hand, you'd be surprised how many female fans Rick Moranis has.
    • Ellen probably just wanted someone who wasn't Tom and could talk business.
    • Lots of long hours working together. Things happen.
  • What's Tom Cody's problem, anyway? Why can't he have a relationship with Ellen?
    • He knew he and Ellen "were going in different directions", and wasn't the kinda guy to be a groupie. Ton figured the best he could do for her was to let her go and stay with her music.
