Deliberate mistake: To meet Manny, Mike walks through his store. The last obstacle is a PVC curtain. The camera has to go through the curtain, moving it and thus revealing its presence. However, it is definitely a deliberate artistic choice. (00:32:50)

Detective Mike Lowrey: What?
Trivia: During Meghan Burnett's wedding, the guy on the mic giving a quick speech is none other than Bad Boys 1 and 2 director Michael Bay.
Question: In his reaction to Rafe calling him "Grandpa," Will Smith says, "Just cause I f*ck your mother don't make me your Grandpa, right?" That's... not how it works. Wouldn't the joke be "Just cause your mom calls me Daddy," etc.? (00:46:30)
Answer: It's not about the relationship. "Grandpa" is used as slang or an insult to mean someone is old. Smith is just repeating back the word, not clarifying anything.

But the point is Will Smith's response - "f*cking your mother" wouldn't ever make them someone's grandpa.
