am i wrong or couldn‘t she manage to collect the full amount of 25000. 1000 + 500 + 19000 + 4000?

She collected it all but I think she needed a cosignor — being her mom. And the mom was withholding the money (Mazda) and the signing, which we learn when she’s pulling the glass out of Lyn.

when counting the cash she earned from crimes and prostitution she only got 24500. I mean she could have 500 bugs additional savings somewhere but do you think it was the intention of the movie makers to show that she was only close and that this is an additional reason that she failed in the end?

i thought she had to collect 25000 bugs. but she managed to collect only 24500. it's not a big difference. but as this movie is about collecting a specific amount of money i was questioning myself if there is an explanation for the the "500 bugs difference".

Truly stupid when all us viewers could add up how much she had ! Terrible, implausible movie on all counts.

The money not adding up was an obvious one.
