Continuity: When Brad and Caroline Sexton are fighting over the intercoms, the movie Brad turns on is It Happened One Night. However, the first line you hear is "Jumpin' catfish, you drive a guy crazy." The next line you hear is "You can leave. I can get along." These lines are actually out of order according to the film itself. See more »
