In the Movie |
Becky goes on the morning TV show to talk about an article she wrote about the bank's shady dealings with her neighbors. |
She goes with Luke to talk about The Girl With the Green Scarf. |
Derek Smeath is polite and works out a deal with Becky in the end to pay off her credit card debt. |
He is the villain and wants to embarrass Becky on live TV.
|
In the book, pounds and pence are used, since the book is set in the United Kingdom. |
In the movie, dollars and cents are used, since the film is set in New York City of the United States of America. |
Luke hears Becky ask for twenty pounds, and stops the whole Press Conference just so he can hand a twenty pound note to her, once she has made up a story of needing the money to buy a present for her aunt who is in hospital. |
Her credit card is declined, so Rebecca goes to a hot dog stand and offers to buy all the hot dogs with a check, if the seller gives her back change in cash, saying the scarf is to be a gift for her sick aunt. The hot dog vendor refuses but a man (Luke) offers her $20.
