  • When Morris' girlfriend randomly comes out of nowhere to yell at him for standing her up.
  • Jerome's and Morris' whole "the password is what?" scene.
  • "That ain't Lake Minnetonka."
  • The time Apollonia tells The Kid she's joining Morris's project to further her career, prompting him to slap her, the split-second shot of The Kid's 'angry face' crosses straight to Narm territory.
  • "God's got Wendy's period reversed. About every 28 days, she starts acting nice. Lasts about a weekend."
  • When The Revolution reunited in 2014 to play through the album in the venue in Minneapolis that it was shot in, each band member took turns to recite their character's jokey lines. Bass player Brownmark received huge applause for recreating his side eye glance at his wristwatch (which appears in the film when The Kid shows up late for a rehearsal.)
