Henry: Oooo...
Alexa: Shut up, because here comes one-time only opportunity. What I will do now is go into your office and become naked.
(Jocko the seal gives a disgusted growl)
Alexa: Next move is up to you. I may not be as limber as I once was... but yeah, I make up for it with enthusiasm and willingness to experiment.
(Snaps her neck)
Henry: I don't know if you realize, I'm not into guys.
- The clinic that Lucy visits is called the "Callahan Institute" and Dr. Keats (Dan Aykroyd) states that it is "funded out of Sandusky, Ohio by T.B. Callahan, the automotive components tycoon". In Tommy Boy (1995), Aykroyd plays a rival automotive components tycoon that is attempting to purchase Tom (T.B.) Callahan's company.
- Originally entitled "50 First Kisses" but changed to avoid confusion with Drew Barrymore's vehicle Never Been Kissed (1999).
- "Jocko" was played by Sivuqaq, one of four walruses living at Six Flags Marine World in Vallejo, CA. The three female walruses featured in the film are named Siku, Uquq and Qiluk.
- The diner where Lucy has her breakfast every morning was originally a house that was remodeled for the movie. It is located on a macadamia nut farm on the eastern side of Oahu. The same house was used in Tears of the Sun (2003) and scenes from Jurassic Park (1993) were filmed in the open fields nearby.
- The book Lucy reads at breakfast, "Still Life With Woodpecker - A Sort Of A Love Story" by Tom Robbins, is a love story set in Hawaii.
