Lars:
Hold your end up higher, you're not holding it.
Ernie:
I am too.
Lars:
You are not.
Ernie:
Don't worry about me. Hey, isn't that suit charcoal?
Lars:
No.
Ernie:
Looks charcoal gray to me, some gray polyester blend. Couldn't even find a black suit for your own father's funeral.
Lars:
It's black.
When the vacuum cleaner is attached to the sewage line, the mouse watches from outside. He sits on top of the upper ("outer") window panel which has been pulled down to the bottom position of its track (for easier cleaning - consistent with the boys housecleaning). Based on interior and exterior shots in the scene, the lower ("inner") window panel appears to run the entire length of the window. In addition, the position of the curtains change from framing the window to pulled back.
DVD version contains six deleted scenes:
