Directed by: Chris Columbus

Continuity mistake: In the restaurant scene, just after Miranda takes Natalie to the bathroom, Chris begins to open his menu just a crack, then Mrs. Doubtfire starts talking. The camera cuts to a closer shot, and the menu is suddenly all the way open. (01:33:00)
Continuity mistake: In the pool scene where Mrs. Doubtfire picks up and throws a lime at the back of Stu's head, when Stu walks away and the camera goes back to Mrs. Doubtfire at the bar, the lime that she threw is still on the top of the stack of fruit. (01:16:40)
Miranda: What happened?
Mrs. Doubtfire: He was quite fond of the drink. It was the drink that killed him.
Miranda: How awful. He was an alcoholic?
Mrs. Doubtfire: No, he was hit by a Guinness truck.
Trivia: The man who plays Todd the bartender at the swimming pool is Robin Williams' brother, Todd Williams.
Answer: To get rid of the smell of alcohol, although it's pretty obvious Mrs Doubtfire is drunk anyway.
