Los Angeles Episode GOOF


In Hollywood at about 22:31 they are shown driving the Mini Cooper with the Parking Brake engaged. This indicates that the car is on a trailer and not actually being driven by the actors.

Or the writers wanted us to think they are stupid enough to drive a car with the parking brake engaged.

Not to say that it wasn't on a trailer, though.
i'm just talking about why it was on.

Good catch, I looked for this on the replay - it's right after they get back into the Mini after they leave the cosmetic surgery center.

If you look at the height of car relative to others, it's also higher indicating it's on a trailer (and a bystander even turned their head to look at it).

Not sure why they trailered it, since there are scenes of them actually driving around? Maybe there were extra scenes inside the car, where it was too dangerous to film and drive, that were omitted.

I've only watched a bit, but he was looking around quite a bit while he was driving, which wouldn't be safe. Also, by having them on the trailer, it drew more attention to them, causing bystanders to take their pictures.

Los Angeles has lots of rules and permit requirements and probably they probably couldn't get away with driving and filming.
