I'm confused by the ending (SPOILER)
As the film draws to a climax, Dave the Dude and his "mob" are all poised to invade Annie's borrowed apartment, posing as her influential friends. Dave-Dude is detained by the police who first refuse to bargain with him, and then call the mayor. The next thing we know -- or that I knew, anyway -- the mayor, governor and other *genuine* highly-placed people appear at Annie's to save the day. Why did the mayor and governor choose to rescue her? Just out of kindness? Or did I miss something?
"I've loved you my whole life."
"You've only known me three days."
"That's when my life began."
