Quotes
Tim:
Poor Jacobson.
Josh:
He took his stapler? How pitiful is that?
Tim:
Still, you got to hand it to him... he wen! for it.
Josh:
That was his big mistake. Always stay in the middle of the pack. It's the frontrunners who fall off the cliff.
Susana:

Goofs
The same dark Scion car drives behind Tim's Porsche in he scene where hi runs over Barry: after the accident and again, when Barry hugs Tim.
Crazy Credits
After the credits, A diorama is displayed of a stuffed mouse sitting in a burnt down house, with Barry heard laughing as he reveals that Fender's company has gone bust with Forbes Magazine naming him the "World's Biggest Loser."
Alternate Versions
The Viacom Media Networks (VH1, Comedy Central, etc.) version makes two notable changes to the brunch scene: 1. Instead of "I'M WET" the napkin reads "I'M HOT." 2. Barry's echo of Müeller's "Join yourself to her, in the name of love" is absent, presumably because Barry could be interpreted as mocking Müeller's accent.
