Crazy Credits

An outtakes reel follows the end credits. The last outtake features Gabriel Gambetta as Andy Tucci saying "are you a steamroller driver, or a squirrel?", and staring intently at Simon for a few seconds; then he cracks up and tells the crew "I think we should fire the writer" - meaning himself.
