Bryan: Not exactly your dream job, eh?
Sue Ellen "Swell" Crandell: Got that right. You think I woke up this morning and said, 'Gee, I'd love to scrub fat vats! I'd love to smile and work with raw meat'?
Trivia: The house in the film was actually a very nice-looking and well-kept house in a wealthy area. It was purposefully trashed and "dumbed down" to look like a run-down "poor family" house just for the film.
Question: Who played Cynthia, Zach's girlfriend that he used the stolen petty cash to buy a necklace for? Nowhere in the film credits or on-line is the character or the actress listed.
