* DiagnosisKnowingTooMuch: When it looks like David might get distracted by Sabrina and call off his engagement to Elizabeth Tyson -- with tremendous fallout for the Larrabee Corporation -- Linus arranges for David to suffer a minor injury and then be kept on very strong painkillers, so that he won't be coherent enough to talk to Sabrina while Linus gets her out of the way.

Linus and David Larrabee (Ford and Kinnear respectively) are brothers, the heirs to a wealthy family. Sabrina Fairchild (Ormond) is the daughter of the Larrabee family's chauffeur; she has a crush on David, but he barely knows she exists.
Sabrina comes back from an extended trip to Paris with a new look and a new sense of self-confidence. David is instantly smitten, but there's a problem: in Sabrina's absence, he's become engaged to Elizabeth Tyson, the beautiful and accomplished daughter of another business magnate. To avoid a scandal (and losing an important business deal with Elizabeth's father), Linus undertakes to keep David and Sabrina separated by romancing Sabrina himself.

* UnequalPairing: Both Linus and David are members of the upper crust. Sabrina is a chauffeur's daughter, but subverted, as Sabrina's father causally reveals that he regularly invested his paycheck into Mister Larrabee's own investments for the entirety of his career as a chauffeur. As a result, he's a millionaire and his daughter was unknowingly born into money. Thus, there's no need to worry about her being a GoldDigger.

** In the original, Sabrina goes to Paris to become a chef. Meanwhile, Elizabeth has no discernible profession. In the remake, Sabrina goes to Paris for a photography internship, while Elizabeth is a doctor.
** In the original film, Elizabeth Tyson gets very little screen time and few speaking lines. Other than the fact that her family owns sugarcane plantations in Puerto Rico, the viewer does not learn much about her. Now, the Tyson family owns a tech company which has created a flatscreen TV that can be pummeled with a crowbar or ''shot point blank several times with a gun'' and not have a scratch.
** Supersonic flight is no longer available, due to it being unprofitable.
