Copycat (1995)

Corrected entry: Segourney Weaver is attacked in the bathroom at the beginning of the film. The attacker is already in the bathroom waiting for her. How could he know she was going to need to use the restroom? His whole plan of attack hinges on her going into the bathroom. Her going in there could only be to further the plot of the film.

Correction: Not exactly a plot hole. If he had say picked somewhere that she would never go into or would have no reason to, then yes it would leave a serious question as to how he knew to set up there. As for his plan, it might have been through experience, research etc. that he chose to set up in the bathroom. She had just given a lecture and the average person after something like that will likely need to use the toilet. Simply put, he was correct and she did come into the bathroom.
