This question contains spoilers… (view spoiler)

David Lamb Well the rubber chicken story is not based on an actual event, (though it would have been hilarious in real life!) One thing that is drawn from semi-autobiography is winning a scholarship to an elite university and then feeling like a fish out of water around rich kids. Also Scrooje's efforts to win Belle back mirror some of the surprise expressions of love I've shown my wife, including putting on a shirt like Prince and surprising her by by singing Adore on stage Off-Broadway after one of the performances of our show Platanos Y Collard Greens. And yes her eyes were filled with happy tears :)
