 Director Frank Oz (qv) encouraged improvisation during select  scenes, and occasionally the result wound up in the film. Some  instances of this are Robert Downey Jr. (qv) saying "and all this"  while flipping through the script of Chubby Rain,  Eddie Murphy (I) (qv) asking his manager to find him a retarded  slave role so he can win an Academy Award, and  Steve Martin (I) (qv) saying, "It couldve worked" after Chubby  Rain was shut down.
