Uncle Wayne: So here's a couple of tips. When you first meet a girl you give her two compliments above the neck. Yeah, tell her she's got nice lips, nice eyes, nice hair... She's intelligent, her moral ethics, whatever crap comes to your mind. Then just when she begins to thinks that you're another - you know - vanilla nice guy that she can tool around with all night without getting naked...you *insult* her! Flip the power dynamic and your let her know that you're here to play.
Trivia: Christa B. Allen, who plays the teenaged Jenny, had previously portrayed another younger version of a Jennifer Garner character in 13 Going On 30.
