As for Hughes, Edson reportedly thought he was something of a mulleted, suburban square.
The garage attendant character supposedly had no lines and no name at first, but Edson was steamed upon learning this after being flown out there, so he got a sew-on patch for the uniform, thought up an “ethnic” name, and improvised the “What country… “ line w/Broderick. To me, that dialog indeed seems a little too smart, culturally aware, and multilayered for Hughes to have penned it.
