    • Goofs
      Flipped shot: One scene of a woman writing on a notepad while speaking on the phone is flipped. She is writing right-to-left despite supposedly being an English speaker and careful examination shows that the top right key on the touch tone phone (normally 3) has no letters above the number, revealing that it is, in fact, the 1 key.
