Continuity mistake: In the scene when Ed first meets Freddy at Da Vinci's, Freddy is having fruit cocktail, with his hand holding up the spoon close to his mouth, as he is taking the bite, shot from behind his back. When the angle changes to in front of him, we see his hand away from his face and there's no bite in his mouth.

Reidenschneider: The more you look, the less you really know. It's a fact, a true fact. In a way, it's the only fact there is.
