Trivia

add »
If the mail order bride is from Chechnya, how come the letter in her hands says "From Russia"? (edit)
How did they manage to get the two ladders to work in the first place, let alone get Carl across them halfway? (Editors Note: When Carl says "Put the magazine down and hold it with your hands.", you can see that the ladders are loosely tied together with a rope.) (edit)
When Shake prints off the mail-order bride documents, we see the paper going down, but not really folding into a stack. The paper just keeps feeding down, never folding or growing. (edit)
A fire burns on top of the deer in the hall when Meatwad lights up the bushes. But come next morning, it hasn't burned down... or even left a burn mark. (edit)
A halo (what Carl wears after he broke his neck) is drilled into your skull. This makes it so your neck doesn't move much and so it may heal properly. With that in mind... how the hell did he get his tux on without someone helping him? (edit)

Allusions

Mail Order Paper: From Russia with Affektion
This sentence is writen on top of the paper that Svetlana has when she first arrives. Besides the fact it is spelled wrong, this is statement is a spoof of the James Bond movie From Russia with Love. (edit)
