Louise: I don't know, there's just gotta be some way we can make money.
Elaine: We can make porno flicks and all wear masks.
Jane: No, Robert and I got bombed out one night, and we put "I love you" on my ankle.
Elaine: OK, we'll wear masks, you'll wear socks. (00:22:45)

Elaine: Why don't we just become hookers and rent a motel room?
Jane: We'd starve to death, there's 12,000 college girls in this town giving it away.
Elaine: You're right.
(00:22:20)

Jerry: I'll give you 10 bucks for this racket, Elaine.
Elaine: It's a deal, Jerry.
Jerry: Say, did Millard have any balls?
[Long pause, the friends look at each other grinning sarcastically].
Elaine: Nah I can't. It's too easy. (00:21:15)

Continuity mistake: During the heist, the lights go out, but just the stage ones. Elaine asks for a flashlight; a guy with a short-sleeved light green shirt is sitting in the audience, or standing in the reverse shot. (01:27:20)

Sammo ★

Other mistake: Elaine is counting her share of the loot in $20 increments; however the pile of money is not made of $20 bills. You can spot about 1 in the visible area, the rest are 1 or 5 dollar bills. Louise is shown stacking away all $100 and $20 bills. (01:38:30)

Sammo ★

Other mistake: It's a funny line, sure, but when Jane is with her fiancé, he tells her that her mother and her lesbian partner "adopted a black baby" and "last week, she hocked her wedding ring to buy a crib." That's a little fast, considering the relationship happened just a little before the heist planning, a week. (01:04:20)

Sammo ★

Continuity mistake: The three friends are trying to come up with a plan for the heist. Elaine suggests taking a walk meanwhile. Louise walks backwards for a few; she has her left hand in her pocket, but at the cut it's the right hand. (00:38:25)

Sammo ★

Continuity mistake: At Taco Time, Jane goes on a rant about international aid while she eats a burger. She has the tiniest piece of burger left in hand when she is done, but in Fred Willard's reaction shot she is holding an almost full burger again. (00:26:20)

Sammo ★

Continuity mistake: At the gas station, the attendant pockets Elaine's credit card saying it's a $25 reward. For the next couple of lines, the squeegee in her hand is turned in opposite directions between cuts. (00:30:15)

Sammo ★

Continuity mistake: Louise gets the door and receives a summons; she holds the paper by the top or by the side depending on the camera angle. (00:25:25)

Sammo ★

Continuity mistake: The waiter brings the check and the poorest of the trio looks away. You can see Elaine's glass is less than half full. Once Louise says "My treat" and they have chatted a few seconds, the glass is over 3/4 full, and is again half empty when we go back to the same camera angle as before. (00:22:40)

Sammo ★

Continuity mistake: Louise is reading about the money ball to the others. When she says "For the entire family", Jane's right arm is under the table, but for her next line after the cut she's leaning on it with that same arm. (00:22:00)

Sammo ★

Revealing mistake: A helpful guy is holding a jar supposedly holding the fish that were recovered after the tank was cracked open by the shot. You can tell however that there's no fish in it and Susan Saint James is dropping a handful of nothing in it. (00:21:00)

Sammo ★

Continuity mistake: At the garage sale, Elaine's friend Natalie drops by and blasts the fishtank open. The tie/necklace she is wearing is off/on the collar of the shirt depending on the camera angle. In the reverse shot her thumb goes suddenly from horizontal to straight. (00:20:35)

Sammo ★

Plot hole: The heist happens before 9 PM. Nothing in the movie justifies the fact that at dawn the two friends are still riverside in their wet clothes and Elaine is still dressed only with a curtain. (01:33:10)

Sammo ★

Factual error: Louise is reading the latest issue of Time magazine which deals with inflation, a hot topic as already addressed earlier in the movie. Not really the latest though, since that issue is from April 1974, 6 years earlier. (00:23:20)

Sammo ★

Continuity mistake: In the semi-POV of the security cart that takes a hard turn through the crowd, the off-balance guard is clinging to his colleague's shoulder, but he was nowhere near to reach him in the other shots. (01:30:30)

Sammo ★

Continuity mistake: Louise's husband is in the car with his nurse. She rubs his earlobe with her fingers; when he asks her about the wet towel and adds "I think I'd like that." her thumb is in front of the ear, but when she replies "I know you would" it's behind it. (01:03:40)

Sammo ★

Continuity mistake: Elaine and the policeman are talking at her place. He proposes to go to the bedroom and she says "I don't think so." He then asks why not, and puts his hand in front of his forehead. The hand position changes at the cut. (00:59:50)

Sammo ★

Continuity mistake: The girls are stopped by the cop as they get out of the back door. Jane says "Maybe we all better give it a try."; in the background, Louise's right hand is all the way down. Next shot ("Why don't we tell the truth?") and it's up all the way to the shoulder. (00:55:00)
