Trivia

Joe misquotes The Godfather: When Joe Fox and Kathleen Kelly first meet at the cocktail party, Joe says, "I didn't know who you were with," quoting the movie producer Jack Woltz. The actual line is, "Why didn't you say you worked for Corleone Tom?" See more »

Goofs

Continuity: The clock behind the counter in Kathleen's store reads exactly 4:30 through the entire 2 minutes plus when Joe is purchasing the books. It shows different times in other scenes, so it's not stopped. See more »

Quotes

Kathleen Kelly: [on "NY152"] What if he showed up, took one look at me, and left?
Christina Plutzker: Not possible.
