* FanserviceExtra: A naked woman is among those arrested when the police raid a drug house. She does absolutely nothing in the scene--or for the scene--except be the subject of Penn's MaleGaze. You can see it [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iIdIoA1kG-A#t=3m56s here at the 4-minute mark, definitely NSFW.]] The actress is uncredited.
** This is probably not so much {{Fanservice}} as it is an attempt by the film to show that Penn, like [[AllMenArePerverts all men, are perverts]].
