An eagle-eyed viewer will spot various hints as to the film's real setting.

* An important plot point is that Sam wants to take an internship in Paris, a blatant clue that the film will end with a flight to Paris. Furthermore, the restaurant where Sam's internship was to take place is the same one that Alex, Clear, and Carter go to in Paris at the end of the first film.
* Some more subtle hints that the film is a prequel include a series of references in the opening scene that place the movie [[TwentyMinutesIntoThePast firmly in the late 1990s or very early '00s]], such as the comparison of Olivia to Lisa Loeb, the music Molly is listening to in her car on the way in, and the fact that not only are the vehicles (and other technology) about a decade old, but the style of New York license plates on the cars was discontinued in 2001.
