Trivia

Goofs

• During the establishing shot with the Atlas truck, you can see a car pull up just barely into frame as the truck turns the corner. It then cuts another shot from another angle with the car and truck in the same spot as in the other shot.

• When we see the establishing shot of the Vancouver Police Department, the phone number on the bench has its first three digits blurred out.

• The very first shot of Emma in the police interview room sees Emma with both of her hands on the table. It cuts immediately to another shot, but it's now just her right hand on the table.
