How to Beat the High Co$t of Living

Plot hole: The heist happens before 9 PM. Nothing in the movie justifies the fact that at dawn the two friends are still riverside in their wet clothes and Elaine is still dressed only with a curtain. (01:33:10)

Mistakes

Factual error: It is established early in the movie (Natalie's call) that the money ball event celebration is part of the -first - anniversary of the Valley River Center, the shopping mall where most of the movie is set, with the town of Eugene, Oregon, mentioned explicitly. However, the center opened in 1969, and the movie is set in 1980. The original script was written in 1971, so that line needed an update and slipped by.
