Goofs

When Holly is trying to call Messer at the airport, Messer's phone shows Holly's missed call at 1:01pm, Holly's phone shows 4:55pm, and the time on Messer's laptop as he's watching the video of Sophie shows 3:24am. It also shows it to be "THU", implying that he waited at least a week to fly back to Phoenix.

Share this

When Holly feeds Sophie for the first time Sophie rejects the food which looks like pureed carrots. They get all over her face. When Sophie starts eating the snack put down by Messer her face is clean.

Share this

Holly sets the puffs on the table twice during the court scene.

Quotes

Holly Berenson: They love Sophie more than anything in they entire world, and out of everyone, Messer, they picked us.

Eric Messer: Having somebody help you doesn't mean that you fail, it just means that you're not in it alone.

Share this

Eric Messer: So I'm at the drug store and it dawns on me that women stare at men carrying a baby like a guy will stare at a woman with a great rack.
