 FAIR: Al states that "Theres only four days until Marilyns  suicide". This episode takes place on 4 April, 1960, while Marilyn  in fact died on 5 August 1962. This is not a goof, however, because  Sams actions during the episode change history. In the episodes  original time line, Marilyn died at Peter Lawfords party. Sam  revives her and convinces her to make one last movie (The Misfits),  delaying her death to the historically accurate date.
