"Emma" worked at a music magazine called Jam (in real life Ferrell worked at Vice); she has a chronic kidney disease, anemia, a liver disease and a heart condition (in real life, she claimed to have cancer); she had warrants out for her arrest in numerous cities (check!); and in one scene there's a romantic segue to her being in bed with a guy, to the guy buying a hot dog (to throw down her hallway?).
