Goofs:

Revealing mistakes: Near the end, when Hank Zigman approaches the border, we see the border guard take the sheet sent by Veronica Mars earlier. Under this page we see an information sheet on a certain "Raphael Bruno", which was intended to be written in Spanish. However, under the word "Atencion", we can clearly see: "All this stuff is suppose to be in Spanish, however the person who usually translates for us is on vacation, so just act like this is in Spanish."
