Trivia: When the film was screened for the MPAA, one of the officials initially believed that in the second sex scene between Lester and Stacy, Lester spilled coffee onto Deacon from the coffee mug he was holding. It wasn't until the official noticed a piece of corn stuck to Deacon's face a few shots later that he realized what had actually happened.

Trivia: The scene in which Chekov and Uhura beam onto the Enterprise aircraft carrier was originally slightly different. It was scripted that they would sneak onto the ship undetected, but the American Navy believed that it would be impossible for two intruders to get past a military security force. So it was re-written that the transporter had enough energy to beam the pair onto the carrier, but not to get them back off.
