Ben Healey (Grandpa) says, "What in the hell is in this salad?" LaWanda replies, "It's bleu cheese" after taking a bite of a piece of salad leaf with a big bug under it. During this shot, there is nothing on her face. The next shot is very brief, showing a surprised look on the others faces. In the very next shot, a huge bug is suddenly crawling on LaWanda's cheek. There was no way this bug could crawl out of her mouth and onto her cheek in the time allotted, let alone without her noticing.
