...reminds Shane of all the financial trouble he's in. Does anyone bring up those finances when it comes to the bill for Eden? No, because they need Shane and Trudy for comic relief and to make the movie seem less like a portrait of whining white upper-middle-class people.

...There's a major commercial prize at stake. Hong Kong would like to become a wine center for Asia. With half the world's population, Asia accounts for only 7% of total wine consumption, so the market has plenty of room to grow.
