Question: Why do both Dan Akroyd and Chevy Chase get in trouble for cheating on the exam (since Chevy is quite obviously the only one cheating)?
Question: Dan Aykroyd tricks the Russians into revealing themselves by saying something in Russian. What does he say specifically?
Answer: According to the IMDb trivia for the film, it's "Чем меньше знаешь, тем лучше." ("Chem men'she znaesh', tem loocheh."), meaning "The less you know, the better."
Plot hole: When Fitz-Hume and Millbarge disguise themselves as aliens in order to distract the mobile launcher crew, where exactly did they get the foil they are wearing? Except for the satellite dish Millbarge wears on his head, no parts of their code transmitter can have been used or the thing would be of no further use, and it is very unlikely that either of the two spy groups brought any of the foil along.
Emmett Fitz-Hume: What did she say?
Austin Millbarge: She wants to know why we'd do such a thing.
Emmett Fitz-Hume: Tell her so do we.
Trivia: Bob Hope has a cameo which lasts about 20 seconds. During the nearly endless doctor scene, Hope takes a golf swing through the tent. This movie is an homage to the series of seven "Road to" movies which starred Bob Hope and Bing Crosby. This cameo is Hope's last for the big screen.
