Continuity mistake: The police crew is having beers to celebrate the alleged resolution of the case, but Richard is not convinced. During the scene, the beer bottles change position between shots - for instance when Fidel says "Maybe she was confused" he puts his hands on the bottle of Etensel, gone in the next shot with Camille piling on his objection - and in that shot even his hat on the table is facing the other way. In fact, throughout the scene his hat keeps rotating to different directions. (00:18:20)
