The only thing I really know about this script, is that the maiden name of Marty's mother is Mary Ellen Gerber - and that she was called Meg. Also, the time machine is still a refrigerator.

Do you recall where you might have read that? I used to have the authorized book about the Back to the Future trilogy, purchased at Universal Studios Orlando (first time I ever saw the picture of Stoltz and Lloyd), and it had the story of the script changes, but I've not seen the book in years.

I don't remember exactly where, but I know Kristen Sheley has mentioned about it - and she's a very reliable source. Bttf4444 02:34, 6 April 2008 (UTC)
BTW, I'm not exactly sure if it's Gerber or Gruber. I've heard it as both. Bttf4444 02:36, 6 April 2008 (UTC)
I own the book and don't recall seeing a mention of the refrigerator at the moment, but I'll look through it again. I can't remember ever hearing about Mary Ellen Gerber, but isn't that a reference to Zemeckis's wife Mary Ellen Trainor (Reese)? -- Riffsyphon1024 23:22, 7 April 2008 (UTC)
