Trivia:

The birth certificate that Rube looks at contains his full name (Rube John Sofer), age (49), address (243 Georgian Ln., Englewood, NJ), and occupation (Sales); his wife's full name (Lucy Sonia Debrouski), age (24), and country of origin (Czechoslovakia); and his daughter's full name (Rose Anne Sofer), and date of birth (3/19/25).

Goofs:

Plot holes: Rube is shown a wanted poster featuring him. The problem is that the man on the poster should resemble Rube as he looked while alive (and how Reapers perceive him), not how the living can see him after he became undead. The boy showing him the picture recognized the man in the picture as Rube, while he shouldn't have been able to.

Quotes:

Kiffany: What would you like, sweetie?
Georgia 'George' Lass: Revenge.
Kiffany: [unfazed] We're out of that. Anything else?
Georgia 'George' Lass: Oatmeal and raisins.
