  • What Could Have Been: In the episode's original ending, Lois comes back home because she forgot her wallet and discovers the family watching the second tape. Before they could destroy the evidence, she snatched the tape away, yelled at the family, and rekindled her attempts at a lawsuit. This was dropped because the writers felt it would completely destroy the development that Lois had just gone through, so it was cut. And also, after Officer Stockton leaves Lucky Aide, Lois and Craig have a discussion about how Lois thinks that their boss at Lucky Aide needs to do his job by hiring trained security guards to do their job properly and not bribe police officers to do their job for them. Craig then reminds Lois that their boss can't afford it because of the strike he's facing with their previous security guards who refused to return to work due to them being underpaid. This was cut to reduce screen time.
