Moe's last name is Porter in the script but Pressman in the final movie.

Mr. Schumacher: "You're a regular Frankie Lane [Laine]. Klippota klop, klippita klop."

Shumacher is comparing Moe's singing of the song "Don't Fence Me In" (page 79 of this script) to Frankie Laine's singing of the same song. (Laine sang the theme song for the popular television show Rawhide, which was broadcast from 1959 to 1965.)

Two scenes are omitted from a previous script.

Baby and Johnny meet for sex in a boathouse.

Part of the evidence against Johnny is that he had seen how much money was in Moe's wallet.

Since Neil will not undo the firing of Johnny, Baby must go confess to her father so that he will intercede for Johnny. Baby does not confess to her mother too.
