Goofs
When Charlie is writing on the chalkboard @ 16:08 and speaking with Sari & Colby he writes what looks like an "85" over an 8 and something else, but when the camera shows him finishing the 4th character in the bottom set the top numbers looks more like an "8" & a backwards "2". The bottom is indistinguishable.

Quotes
Charlie Eppes: I'm not as helpless as people think I am.

One simple question

When they found the truck the first time and it was driving away, why didn't they shoot out the tires? That would have been very simple. The whole premise of moving that much cash via a truck is just ridiculous. Regardless of the reason that they gave for not doing a wire transfer, it's crazy that they did not. It would have solved everything and they wouldn't have had any troubles. But I guess that would have been too easy. Also, the therapy that Don is going to gets a little too far into things that don't pertain to the story. Charlie has been asked to attend but he doesn't want to. My point with the therapy is, Who really cares?

Too many plot holes in this one.
