Trivia
During the ending scene when Russell Stevens was about to arrest David Jason, David smacked Russell and said, "wake up". It was a nod to Lawrence Fishburne's portrait Dap from Spike Lee's School Daze.

The rhymes that 'Lawrence Fishburne''s character recites, such as "The jungle creed says that the strong must feed on any prey at hand..." are lyrics taken from the record 'Reflections' by best-selling black author 'Iceberg Slim'. Bill Duke, who is a great fan of Iceberg Slim's work, wrote a screenplay of his autobiography "Pimp" which never made it to production.
