    Storyline

    • Goofs
      Streamers and balloons inexplicably fall from the ceiling with nobody having triggered anything and directly on the raffle winner. And the camera's view of the room makes it seem impossible.
    • Quotes

      [Woody has just been given the title Senior Bartender]

      Carla LeBec: So Wood, now that you've scratched and clawed your way to the top of your profession, you still going to talk to us little people?

      Woody Boyd: Little people?

      Woody Boyd: [pauses to think] Oh, right, you folks don't like to be called midgets anymore.

    ONE WEIRD THING ABOUT THIS EPISODE
    Great episode but Norm keeps asking for free drinks which got old. It was also very strange that he kept shouting about free drinks during the raffle when he knew that the bar was on the edge of bankruptcy. Why would Norm, who loved the bar and would hate to see it close, stir the crowd into demanding free drinks? The whole point of the raffle was to get more money into the bar. That seemed extremely out of character for Norm. Woody or Cliff I could see doing it because they were slow enough to miss the point. But Norm the former accountant? Just seemed almost like he wanted to sabotage the raffle.

    It also seemed strange that nobody brought up the fact that when Sam was running the bar, it never had money trouble. I would think Mr Drake would immediately look into putting Sam in charge of the bar again since he clearly was a better manager...
