The first scene in the courthouse with the committee had separate shots and was pieced together. Even though it appears that Howard, Andy, Goober, Aunt Bee, Clara and Floyd are at this meeting, in some shots, there is an empty space next to Aunt Bee that Howard walks through. In another shot, Aunt Bee and Clara are sitting next to each other. In several shots, Floyd is alone or sitting next to Clara only, and they appear separated from the rest of the group.
Commenting on Seth Taylor's photo, Clara thinks that Opie has his eyes, and Brian thinks that Andy has his chin. When the statue is revealed Seth's lower face is covered with a full beard.
