- Casting what-if and aged worst: Warren Beatty reportedly wanted the missing daughter changed to a girlfriend, which the panel rejects as wrong for this story. His delayed Howard Hughes project is also discussed.
- Casting what-if: The studio reportedly rejected Diana Scarwid; discussion then turns to casting Ilah Davis. The panel criticizes the rushed final father-daughter scene and argues Davis was not equipped for the rewritten demands.
- Recasting couch: Melanie Griffith could handle Kristen's later scene, but would seem less innocent initially. Marilyn Chambers reportedly considered for Nikki; the panel still praises Hubley.
