- An early nit taken during the scene picks: how Waingro escapes with Neil standing over him with a gun, somehow rolling 50 yards away.
- Kilmer asking pickup basketball players where to get bread was covered in the last pod.
- Police let Kilmer go at the checkpoint instead of bringing him in to check, though they could get Vincent a helicopter for coffee.
- Mann's L.A. ignores distances and has no traffic; 'two freeways right here' at the first robbery would mean sitting in traffic.
- The crew goes to a fancy public dinner with their families right after the heist, and Neil sits there alone.
- The crew is caught because a witness heard someone call the guard 'slick', which Vincent runs as an alias and confirms through Albert; it is called too convenient.
