According to his book "If Chins Could Kill: Confessions of a B-Movie Actor", Bruce Campbell mentioned that McHale's crew were rarely given specific instructions in many scenes other than to follow Tom Arnold around.

Despite this, most of their sequence ended up playing in the background while the camera focused on Arnold and Debra Messing.
