Miss Congeniality 2: Armed and Fabulous

Continuity mistake: The Tina Turner wig that Sam is wearing changes between scenes. In the traffic jam it is noticeably more spiky than the one she was wearing in the drag club. (01:20:50 - 01:31:00)

Continuity mistake: When Gracie is reviewing Joel's etiquette rule book, her right hand holds the book while her left flips the pages, but in a consecutive shot she is suddenly holding the book with her left hand flipping pages with her right. (00:17:10)

Super Grover

Continuity mistake: When Gracie and Clonsky are at the bank, there is a tray attached to the handle of the carriage (with a sippy cup). After Gracie tells the "housewife" there's an agent in the carriage, in the shot facing Gracie as she tips the carriage, the tray comes loose. However, in the next shot the tray is still attached. (00:04:20)

Super Grover

Revealing mistake: While Gracie chases "Fake Dolly," as Dolly runs past the Asian couple her supposed spike heeled shoes have a filled in flat base between the fake spike heel and sole, obviously making it easier to run. When Gracie pins her to the ground, Dolly wears real spike heeled shoes. (00:48:10)

Super Grover

Audio problem: More than once Gracie or a member of her entourage is seen watching the distant pirate ship battle from the hotel window. The cannons fire and the blast is heard immediately. In fact, at that range (several thousand feet) there would be a discernable interval between the muzzle flash and the arrival of the weapon report.

Deliberate mistake: As "Fake Dolly" runs away from Gracie, it is rather obvious in the shot facing Dolly as she runs down the stairs and then when she turns to look behind her, that it really is a fake Dolly running. (00:48:20)

Super Grover

Continuity mistake: When Gracie is on TV with Regis, he asks, "Could you give us a little encore..." and points toward the side of the stage with his outstretched left arm, but in the next shot he points with his right arm. (00:18:40)

Super Grover

Continuity mistake: In Priscilla's classroom, Gracie removes the girl's hair clips and tosses them across the desk. However, when Priscilla stands up the hair clips are directly in front of Gracie, and they change position as the scene progresses. (01:45:45)

Super Grover

Continuity mistake: When Sam and Gracie spend the night at Foreman's, their pillows, sheets, blankets, things on the coffee table, even Sam's blazer, change repeatedly throughout the scene. (00:54:45)

Super Grover

Continuity mistake: When Gracie is toying with Tom Abernathy about the press conference and says, "Ok everybody, I would love to stay and chat," the white handbag strap faces out, but in the next shot it's at the other side of the bag, facing Gracie. (00:44:00)

Super Grover

Visible crew/equipment: When Gracie spots "Fake Dolly," Dolly runs and Gracie begins her pursuit. Then just as Gracie trips on the luggage cart, her pretty orange blouse flies up at the back and Sandra Bullock's mic transmitter is visible at the back of her pants. (Note that a bit earlier, after Sam elbows Gracie in the ladies room, it isn't there as Gracie stands up.) (00:48:00)

Super Grover

Continuity mistake: At the bank, when Gracie pushes the carriage into the "housewife," she leaps on the woman, the gun goes off and the carriage falls. After it cuts to Clonsky being hit by the bullet, when Gracie and the woman hit the ground the carriage is standing upright. Yet a few shots later, as they grapple for the gun, the carriage is overturned on the floor. (00:04:40)

Super Grover

Continuity mistake: When Gracie is at the FBI gym, Sam gets in her face and when Gracie says, "A real sorry." Sam puts down her towel and gym bag, which change positions for the duration of the scene. (00:13:15)

Super Grover

Deliberate mistake: When Foreman is taking Gracie, and Sam to the hotel, you can look behind Foreman at the background you can see the newer Las Vegas Strip. At first, you can see them going toward the bridge that connects the MGM Grand to New York, New York. In the next shot, you see a completely different part of the strip that is nowhere near New York, New York. Then when Sam says "Where's the best place for me to throw up?" if you look behind Foreman, you can see the Brooklyn Bridge, which means that they are now going the other way.

Continuity mistake: At the airport, when Okun speaks to Collins on the cell phone there is a drink with only a bit of ice in front of Foreman, yet when Foreman goes after Okun, the drink is full of ice. (01:11:25)

Super Grover

Continuity mistake: While at the bar with Tom Abernathy, Gracie's multi-strand pearl necklace keeps changing positions throughout the scene, with the limo driver. (00:42:50)

Super Grover

Continuity mistake: At the kidnappers' shack, when one says, "Let's line this up," the TV's position in this shot not only differs in the next close-up, the junk beside the TV stand is gone. (00:31:30)

Super Grover

Continuity mistake: At FBI HQ, when McDonald reads Gracie's fan letter the position of the stationery in his hand noticeably differs between shots, just as it occurs when Gracie holds the letter. (00:06:50)

Super Grover

Continuity mistake: During the scene where Gracie interrogates the limo driver at the bar, his drink keeps on changing from being almost gone to almost full. This happens at least twice. (00:43:00)

Continuity mistake: When Gracie is dressed as the old lady and is waiting in line at the airport, her false old lady breasts change place from shot to shot. Sometimes they are low and sagging, in other shots they are higher up. They also vary in how far apart they are spaced. This is BEFORE she moves them out of the way.

Gracie Hart: It comes and goes.

More quotes from Miss Congeniality 2: Armed and Fabulous

Question: What was the thing which appears to be a metal grate that fell and almost hit Gracie as she dove through the window of the pirate ship? She had just broken open with her feet and going through head first. Immediately after getting past the opening you can see it fall from above. Was she (or the stuntwoman) nearly injured?
