Continuity mistake: During dinner at the Lobster Shack, the table is bare when the first plate is set down. The second plate and condiments suddenly appear on the table without any servers present or even enough time to have done so.

Continuity mistake: In the scene where Olive and Anson are sitting in the cafeteria talking about going to the Lobster Shack, once Anson stands up, watch the girls in the background. You see a grey sweatshirt and shorts go by, followed by a blond and curly dark haired girl. Then, once the camera shifts and comes back, you see the same curly dark haired girl, followed by the blond and the grey sweatshirt girl.

Question: Why didn't the teacher get fired after being caught sleeping with a student? In most cases a teacher wouldn't be able to be at that school whether he is of age or not, I don't think parents would like the thought of a teacher sleeping with students is still teaching at that same school and her husband is a teacher as well.

Answer: I don't believe she was ever officially caught seducing a student, her husband found but never told. He wants a divorce, and he knew she would agree to any settlement to keep it quiet.
