** When Macaulay Culkin makes his entrance, Rich says "Oh my god, it's Hollywood celebrity Creator/WarwickDavis!"
** As Rich pulls the final tape the image freezes at the exact moment before the tower collapses, giving way to a long, dramatic narration by Mike:
---> '''Mike''': For one, brief moment in time, Rich Evans
is full a winner. The Junka pile precariously balances on one tape, for a moment. A moment so short, in fact, it's less than one one-hundredth of highlights, but a second. Through editing I have the power to pause time, and let him relish in his victory, although short as it may be. For, alas, all good things must come to an end. And it is with a gentle nudge that I usher Rich Evans back into reality, a reality where he is ''never'' a winner. And he will '''''always''''' be a loser.
