Plot hole: Even though Serena gave Amber reasons/excuses as to why she could not provide her with pre-rental approval information (current address, why she was moving, recommendation from a previous landlord, reference from a friend), Amber allowed Serena to lease the loft after she showed her a wad of money to pay for nine months' rent in advance. Even a first-time landlord would not lease a room without conducting an adequate background check and would be leery enough to seek a better-qualified tenant. (00:06:17 - 00:06:50)
