* ArtisticLicenseGunSafety: PlayedForLaughs. When he grabs a handgun [[spoiler: from Rig's belt]], T starts to wave it erratically around, eventually accidently firing it and ''shooting Nick''. In fact, the robbers are more afraid of the lack of most basic gun safety than the fact T is holding them at a gunpoint, as he is simply unpredictable.
** And let's not forget the gun was behind a belt in the first place.

His boss does come off as a bit of a self-involved jerk, but the supposed affair was a big misunderstanding. Nick learns this and puts the money back (though the fertility idol is still destroyed).]]

* TitleDrop: "Nothing to lose" is clearly heard in the lyrics of the soundtrack song being played as Nick arrives home at the end of his adventure. Ironically, by this point Nick actually has ''everything'' to lose as his happy life is now in serious jeopardy due to robbing and vandalizing his boss's office. At pretty much any other point in the movie, that song would've reflected Nick's situation much better as he spent most of the movie [[spoiler: mistakenly]] believing that he really did have "nothing to lose."
