Continuity mistake: When Kurt Russell and Michelle are having dinner in her restaurant, Michelle goes over to her counter to find an envelope with her name on it that is smeared from the rain leaking through the roof. Later she is shown opening that envelope and the writing is completely different, the name is positioned differently, and the name is smeared 3 times worse than before.
Jo Ann: What is it? You need some chap stick or lip gloss or something? Because your lips keep getting stuck on your teeth. Or is that your idea of a smile?

Chosen answer: It's not the sunglasses. It's the matches. Nick is acting as though he is coming closer to Joanna to get a pack of matches, which she then notices he already has. She realises that he is trying to eavesdrop on her conversation, and although she was previously buying his apology her demeanor changes drastically once she is finished with the phone call.
