Goofs[]
- Continuity
- After the bus goes by, Doug is still wearing his button-up shirt like it was before. It then cuts to a close-up, and about half of it is hanging off him.
- Factual errors
- The red street curbs that you see as the bus rolls by is a southern California way of telling you it's a no parking zone. New York City doesn't use red curbs, they use signs.
- Miscellaneous
- After the plane lands no one is getting ready to disembark, passengers are still reading and napping.
