Visible crew/equipment: When Pat runs towards the school, he talks with Mrs. Metgers and in the scene where they're walking up the stairs you can see a crew member with a white cap reflected in the glass of the door. (00:17:30)
Visible crew/equipment: When Pat and Tiffany arrive at the hotel for the dance competition, in the first shot inside the building, the camera is shown moving forward towards them. To the left of shot, the reflection of the camera and cameraman can be seen in the glass window. (01:38:48)
Chosen answer: Their score was pretty bad, but just good enough to win the bet. Getting the money was the important part - they didn't really expect to win the competition.
