"Robbie? I thought you were supposed to be in literature?"
"It's all full up."

So you'll see police lights in the background here in this scene and that's just something Anderson didn't catch. I thought they were about to be arrested here.

Dignan just blowing out how big the robbery was constantly simultaneously is immediately tiresome and never gets old.

This whole scene with Anthony mumbling under his breath mostly to himself because Inez doesn't speak any English is great.
"It's great how you're able to bring a room to life like this.
"It's just bad manners if you ask me, but then...yeah I've been guilty of it."

I love Dignan's shirts in this movie. I would wear the shit out of a shirt like this if I could find one.

I read this, they cut to Anthony wearing a guayabera and I immediately remember one I used to have - light blue with jesters on the pockets and "Royal Order of Jesters" stitched in below each one.

I misspelled situacion because I find myself typing responses in Duolingo in Spanglish a lot these days. I imagine if you were really multi-lingual speaking with someone who they themselves you know are multi-lingual how often you might slip back and forth between Spanish and English.

It's very hard to imagine Dignan or Anthony having an actual conversation with an adult of at least 30 years of age.

The one they've had so far (with the store manager) they didn't really come out too well on.

I love that this bit with the misunderstanding about Inez' change of heart isn't really played for homophobic laughs even in 1996.

"Alright, OK man."
(The callback to that later at Mr. Henry's party is awesome.)

Extrapolating out the "$500 tip to the housekeeper" bit, they might have cleared $1200 in that big bookstore heist, which makes Dignan's scheming just amazing.

I also enjoy how he compares one of his best friends to a six-year-old as a compliment.

Mr. Henry appealed to me and my roommate the first time we watched it because we used "Abe" as an epithet because of a guy on the floor of our dorm called Abe Vasuki. A common refrain on our hall was "don't be an Abe!"
