Question: I've never quite understood why Edward damages the curtains and bathroom walls at the Boggs' house. After he tells Kim that he only helped with the robbery because she asked him to, and then Jim shows up. Kim tries to convince Jim to tell the truth, so why does Edward act that way?

Answer: He doesn't know what she's saying. He sees the girl he just opened his heart to immediately run off, apparently into the arms of another man. That's what made him angry. Remember, he's had no chance to learn the nuance of human interaction or how to control overwhelmingly hard feelings.

Continuity mistake: Before Edward is looking at the family pictures you can see some scars on his face are open, when the camera focuses back on him the scars are closed.

Trivia: This role of Inventor played by Vincent Price would be his very last in a motion picture. Shortly after narrating and starring in a couple of television shows and a voice-over for an animated film, he passed away in 1993.
