** The movie depicts the fairies bewitching Hermia into falling for Demetrius in ''Theatre/AMidsummerNightsDream''. In the play she is only betrothed to Demetrius at her father's orders. The fairies bewitch the men, not the women. Although this is an ImagineSpot for Berke before he has even read the play, and the love juice is shown being applied to the correct characters in the actual version at the end, so it's possible this is intentional.
** Another one in the play itself. In Kelly's (as Helena) line in the opening number, she sings "I love him" while putting her hand on Berke's chest. Berke is playing Lysander, and Helena is in love with Demetrius. Of course the play is meant to be terrible, so this could also be intentional (or a FreudianSlip on Kelly's part).

** Kelly decides to swap out the cheesy love song that was written for Helena (we only hear two lines of it but it's safe to say it's just as awful as the rest of the play's music) with a song she wrote called "Dream of Me". A beautiful ballad, it moves everyone in the audience and encourages Berke to realise his feelings for her. Not to mention Dr Forest Oates is initially furious that his music was changed, but he is visibly delighted with the performance (and he'd previously mocked Kelly for writing a song on her own). It's a nice analogue to some versions of ''Theatre/AMidsummerNightsDream'' that have Flute turn out to be a good actor in the ''Pyramus & Thisbe'' tableau - and that's the route they took in the 1999 film version.
** Not to mention Dennis nailing the choreography of the fairy dance number. It's doubly impressive that he was able to catch on after only being cast at the last minute. Of course Sisqo is a trained dancer, but that doesn't detract from the awesome factor.
