Continuity mistake: After Alex installs the clapping machine, he can't get the TV to turn off while he is laying down, he has to stand up and jump while clapping. However, after Mrs. Connelly figures out how to use it and they are going back and forth, it works perfectly fine while laying down.

Mrs. Connelly: I couldn't help noticing that Alex left the house this morning while you stayed home.
Nancy Kendricks: I was downsized from my job.
Mrs. Connelly: Oh, I'm sorry, but I'm sure it's for the best. Let Mr. Rose get out there and bring home the bacon. I always thought it was strange your husband staying home while you were out there providing.
Nancy Kendricks: Well, he's a writer.
Mrs. Connelly: Writer? The man naps more than a newborn pup. What's he writing about? Sheep?
Question: What is the word that Drew Barrymore says to her boss, which she claims means that he'll have it "right away"?
Answer: She says "tickety-boo" - later on he asks for her article and says he wants it "tickety-now" not "tickety-boo".
