The 1999 film "American Pie" holds no punches when it comes to the clumsy, gawky sexual endeavors of five high school seniors eager to lose their virginity by their graduation. Even the movie's title is enough to make those who have watched it wince in secondhand embarrassment as they recall the scene where Jason Biggs' character masturbates with a warm apple pie only to be walked on in by his father, played by Eugene Levy.

Levy's real-life son, Dan Levy, was none the wiser to the content of this absurd comedy when he planned to watch the premiere with his parents. Luckily for Dan, he had been on the phone with a friend back home who had watched an advanced screening of the movie. "[They said,] 'Run in the opposite direction of wherever your parents are in relation to that film," Dan recounted to Kelly Clarkson. "And I did. And I have yet to see it with them."

Dan reiterated the differences between his high school experience and that of Jason Biggs' on-screen character while on a 2020 episode of "Hot Ones," saying, "I did not have sex with a pie, unfortunately." Still, remnants of the late '90s teen flick live on in the Levy bunch, including their relationship with Biggs, who Dan says is like an extended member of their family to this day.
