Revenge of the Nerds

Lambda Lambda Lambda and Omega Mu win the Homecoming Carnival and select Gilbert as the new president of the Greek Council. The coach tells the Alpha Betas to do something about it, and instilled with rage, they completely trash the Tri-Lambs' house. Gilbert marches to the pep rally being held and tell everyone what the Alpha Betas did, and also that nerds aren't different and shouldn't be picked on. Lewis and the other nerds arrive, and tell everyone to join them if they've ever felt picked on, so everyone in the crowd joins them against the Alpha Betas. The dean tells the coach that the Alpha Betas have to rebuild the Tri-Lambs' house while they live in the Alpha Betas' dorm, leaving them to go live in the gym.

Continuity mistake: When Lewis and Gilbert first carry their trunk from the car, the puddle behind them has no shadows around it. However as they approach it in the next shot the shadow of a tree is now there on the left side. (00:06:45)

Question: Is there an artist and title of the steamy mellow song played when Lewis and Betty start to have sex on the "moon" in the funhouse? Is it a real song or was it just made for the movie only?

Answer: First, Lewis and Betty are not "having sex" - he is raping her, and the writer and director later described it as "not excusable" (https://decider.com/2019/07/26/revenge-of-the-nerds-rape-scene-regret/). Second, the song you hear is "Right Time for Love" by Jill Michaels and Pat Robinson. It was not written for the film.
