*** However, when you listen to the playback, you can hear that it's Lenny's voice saying "hey" to the jogging woman. When Lenny says it was "custom made", he wasn't kidding. He literally made it for his handicapped friend.

* Early in the film, Lenny visits one of his sleazy-looking friends at the Retinal Fetish club, who happens to be missing both legs. Lenny hands him a memory clip to view as a gift for the upcoming Y2K. Probably just another porno memory, or a generic thriller memory, right? Lenny's (leg-less, remember) friend plays the clip, and its actually a memory of a healthy athletic male just running along the beach, enjoying the scenery and getting some attention from a hot jogger. Lenny's friend is practically crying when the clip ends.
