why did they say she was 313 lbs?


In Aiden Quinn's cell he had older pics of her and she wasn't fat. Plus, no way could smoking Madeleine been a Super BBW! But man, was she HAWT in this or what? Id break out of the joint to see her!

Yeah, it didn't!

Ignoring the photo, the 313 could very well have been a typo. I'll bet whoever typed the police report, they probably meant to type 133 and accidentally put 313. Anyway, it alllowed for us to get a chuckle moment out of it!

Or actually, now that I've thought about it, it could have been their cop nemesis who were playing with their heads, no? Either way, glad she turned out to be Madeleine, how sweet, MMMMM!

I just watched Stakeout again the other night and was even more impressed with Stowe's performance than I had already been before. She gave a very natural performance.

It was obviously a prank in the report, trying to scare Bill and Chris.

I hate this job.

Wait a minute... who am I here?

I agree it was a typo, she looked about 113.

Been watching this movie since it came out. After the first time I thought the 313 was just a typo, possibly a prank cops play on one another. Stakeout humor, like the toilet paper, ink on the telescope and other silly things. Though I suppose that it could cause a serious problem if something happened the first night and they were looking out for a heavier woman instead...

yeah, it was a prank.




today's special: shrimp ceviche!

Yeah, its got to be a typo. They wouldn't play a prank on the guys making them believe she used to be really fat. This was a serious operation, even though they didn't take it too seriously at first, but they were on the job.
