Trivia

Alison's fiancé, Brad, is a New York City police officer, whose collar tabs indicate that he is in the 53rd Precinct. The fictional 53rd Precinct is where the officers from the classic comedy, "Car 54 Where Are You?" were assigned.

The book that Frank lends the receptionist (briefly) is "Pride and Prejudice and Zombies" by Jane Austen and Seth Grahame-Smith and cover by America's Got Talent semi-finalist Doogie Horner.

Roxy's body count is 8.

Goofs

When the cop catches them sleeping he asks for registration and ID. When he hands it back it is only the ID with no registration.

Share this

When Roxi finds Frank's Motel room and she's inside the suit bag daring Frank to commit suicide, her hair band is falling down. But in the next cut it is already fixed, although her arms are inside the bag (so she couldn't fix it herself).

In the final shootout, when Steven Clark is shot on stage, a large red spot immediately shows on his chest. A few cuts later, he is shown again from a different angle, still in mid-fall, yet his shirt is clean.

Quotes

Roxy: [referring to Frank having killed Chloe] Tell me all about it!

Share this

Frank: I only wanna kill people who deserve to die.

Share this

Frank: [On the air] My name is Frank. That's not important. The important question is: who are you? America has become a cruel and vicious place. We reward the shallowest, the dumbest, the meanest and the loudest. We no longer have any common sense of decency. No sense of shame. There is no right and wrong. The worst qualities in people are looked up to and celebrated. Lying and spreading fear is fine as long as you make money doing it. We've become a nation of slogan-saying, bile-spewing hatemongers. We've lost our kindness. We've lost our soul. What have we become? We take the weakest in our society, we hold them up to be ridiculed, laughed at for our sport and entertainment. Laughed at to the point, where they would literally rather kill themselves than live with us anymore.
