When it comes to the subtitles and closed captioning for the opening moments of Scene 149, it's interesting that each interprets Tracy's calling to Quentin differently - the subtitles have -
- with a "?" - whereas the closed captioning has -
- with a "!" - and that way is actually how the script intended it to be.
Also, after Quentin does finally open the door, what Tracy says to him is, "I...I thought you said you weren't gonna come here anymore..." - however, the subtitles and the closed captioning present her line in slightly different ways - the subtitles have -
- with the "I...I" hesitation ignored in favor of a single "I" - and the closed captioning has -
- with the hesitation intact but with "gonna" changed to the grammatically correct "going to," even though Tracy actually says "gonna."
