Character mistake: At the scene at the dinner table where Pat and Tiffany meet, the prescription drug "Trazadone" is mispronounced with a long A as in "trayzadone." This a fairly common drug used for depression and as a sleep aid. Any nurse or pharmacist could tell you the correct pronunciation. Interestingly, the other lesser known drugs were pronounced correctly.

Ending / spoiler
Directed by: David O. Russell
Starring: Robert De Niro, Bradley Cooper, Jennifer Lawrence
Pat and Tiffany score horribly on the dance competition, but it doesn't matter because their lousy score was enough to win the Eagles bet. Nikki comes to the competition, much to Tiffany's surprise, and as Pat goes to talk to her, Tiffany storms out. Pat whispers something in Nikki's ear and they part on good terms. Pat catches up to Tiffany and gives her a letter he wrote to her. The letter says that Pat knew Tiffany wrote Nikki's letter, but Pat doesn't care and that he loves her. They kiss.

Pat: The only way to beat my crazy was by doing something even crazier. Thank you. I love you. I knew it from the moment I saw you. I'm sorry it took me so long to catch up.
