Jess: Draw something resembling anything!

In the classic Katz's' Deli scene Rob Reiner's mother tells the waiter 'I'll have what she's having'. One problem - Katz's is a cafeteria-style delicatessen; there are no waiters that come to the tables in the section where she's sitting. See more...

Trivia

When they are in the museum and Harry says "For the rest of the day, we are going to talk like this...", the last thing he says is ad libbed. "But I would be proud to partake of your pecan pie." is not in the script. You can see Meg Ryan look off-camera at the director and say "Oh, no" but she continues with him. It's obvious that she wasn't expecting it. [This is confirmed as true in the documentary on the DVD.] See more...

Harry and Sally are talking to their respected friends (the split screen scene) about how they just had sex, in Harry's split screen is a mirror. Watch in the reflection as a crew member walks by as if nothing has happened. He actually walks by twice, in different directions. The film's director Rob Reiner walks by carrying some equipment seconds later. [Harry is in a public place using a public phone. The scene implies that both Harry and Sally have called their friends right away after Harry leaves Sally's place. The type of phone Harry uses, plus the mirror to see the people passing by helps reinforce this theory, and thus the rush of his call. Seeing passers by in a mirror (even if they're cameos by members of the crew) fits the scene.]

In the scene where they have just had sex, Meg goes to get out of the bed and is supposed to be naked, but when she puts on the bathrobe you can see she is wearing some type of slip or nylon panties. [They hadn't JUST had sex. It was the following morning and very likely the character would have put on a slip or panties at sometime during the night. Remember how neat and particular she was about everything?]

When Billy and Meg are leaving from the college campus, Meg barely talks to Amanda. They only say a quick hello. I realize Amanda is enamoured with her boyfriend, but the girls don't even act like they know each other, and when Meg drives off neither one of them say goodbye or wave goodbye, not even a smile or a look. I thought they were supposed to be friends? [Sally could be upset for having to drive Amanda's boyfriend, or it could be awkward because they don't know how to say goodbye. There could be a number of reasons why things appear tense between Sally and Amanda, but it's not necessarily a plot hole.]
