Continuity mistake: In the scene where Michael Douglas first calls Annette Bening for a date, he has a glass of beer in front of him. She replies the president has a nice butt and hangs up. He immediately re-dials, but now has a cocktail in his hand and the beer is gone. (00:26:25)

President Andrew Shepherd: You have concerns?
Sydney Ellen Wade: Yes. Not many. A few. One. I have one concern.
President Andrew Shepherd: This wouldn't have to do with the fact that one of us is president?
Question: I have a question about the scene where Sidney receives the ham from the President. At the theatre I believe someone read the note aloud, but my video cut that part. Does anyone know what the note said?
