Discrepancies and Curiosities - Part 9

Scene 9 - Getting Even/Infestation

1. The payback scene plays out differently onscreen. To wit:
• The boys are disturbed by the windows opening and closing rather than Rudolph's and Tony's voices.
• It takes them a while to catch on to the identity of their mysterious midnight visitor.
• Rudolph gives them a more elaborate speech and a greater show of his powers (he, without the aid of his hands, makes a pair of wings sprout from behind his ears, rather than pulling on his ears to produce the wings).
• If the boys wet themselves, they don't notice.
2. The flight home was cut.
3. Robert's slide presentation is manual.
4. Lord McAshton does not express a wish to have Rookery's head in the final cut (for good reasons, I'm sure).
5. There's no memo recorder, nor is there Dottie's insistence on the family talking together, though she is clearly bothered by the fact that Bob couldn't give a damn less about all the hard work she put into afternoon tea.
