Elaborating on the filming of the scene, Sandra recalled with laughter, "Ryan and I have these flesh-colored things stuck to our privates, my hair is strategically over the nipples, and Ryan's little — not little at all! It’s just whatever’s there, and I don't know because I didn’t see it, didn’t look!”
