Plot hole: Bond goes after Lupe after she leaves the casino table, and they have quite a lengthy, hush-hush conversation. It's a casino, and there are cameras everywhere. Certainly, this would have been brought to Sanchez's attention since he was already leery of Bond and possibly Lupe.
Licence to Kill (1989)
1 plot hole - chronological order
Directed by: John Glen
Starring: Desmond Llewelyn, Timothy Dalton, Robert Davi, Talisa Soto, Carey Lowell
Factual error: When the air hose on the truck is severed, the brakes release. In reality, on an air-braking system, if the air hose is severed, the brakes lock on as a safety measure.
Franz Sanchez: Señor Bond, you got big cojones. You come here, to my place, without references, carrying a piece, throwing around a lot of money... but you should know something: nobody saw you come in, so nobody has to see you go out.
Trivia: This was Timothy Dalton's second and last appearance as James Bond. He initially agreed to play Bond for a third time in "GoldenEye" (1995), but resigned from the role in 1994, believing that too much time had passed since "Licence to Kill".
Question: When Cary Lowell arrives at the religious compound run by Wayne Newton to "donate" money, they don't let her in at first. She begs and says "But I came all the way from Wichita Falls." Being from Wichita Falls, Texas (a city not real well known throughout the US since it's relatively small) I'm curious as to how this line got into the film. Does someone working on the film have some connection to Wichita Falls?

Answer: Just why they chose this city is not known. It was probably chosen for an inside reason, i.e. one of the writers or producers was from there, and they wanted to give a nod to their hometown.
