Continuity mistake: Dante gets fined for selling the 4 year old girl cigarettes at 4 o'clock. The girl was sold the cigarettes much before even 2 o'clock, before the store was closed for hockey on the roof.

Veronica dumps Dante because he was trying to get together with Caitlin. Caitlin ends up in a mental hospital because she had sex with a dead guy. Dante has no girlfriend.--An alternate ending has Dante getting shot by a robber. It seems that he's dead. Afterwards, Kevin Smith (not playing Silent Bob, but in a long ponytail) goes into the store, looking for cigs. He doesn't see anybody manning the counter, so he reaches up and steals them, then runs off.

Answer: I think it's a combination of both of those. He's played by Walt Flanagan, who also plays three other characters in the movie. Flanagan was a friend of Kevin Smith who filled in for several roles. He's definitely playing the part a little hammy... but I also think some of his reactions are a little off because it was (obviously) his first film, and he was inexperienced. (Though to be fair, he appeared in similar small roles in several other Smith films, and his acting improved over time).
