"A Special Place" Trivia - Continuity Error and Deleted Scene Information


In "A Special Place" around 19.15 minutes: 
Miss Sherwood is in the office asking Mrs Berg for a sexual harassment form. Shorofsky is at the cubby holes and overhears. He comes over to Miss Sherwood and they have a conversation.
 
As normal, the cubby holes and open door leading to the lobby (with the auditorium doors in view) are on the left hand side of the picture and the red strip on Shorofsky's tie is on the right hand side of the picture.


However in the close up shots of Shorofsky the picture is reversed. The cubby holes and open door leading to the lobby are now on the right hand side of the picture and the red strip on Shorofsky's tie is on the left hand side of the picture.

 As the conversation comes to an end the wide shot shows both Sherwood and Shorofsky and the picture returns to normal with the cubby holes and door back on the left and the red strip on Shorofsky's tie back on the right.


 
Also in the previews at the start of the episode there is a scene where Shorofsky says "They come in here with their reports and they treat us like digits".

However this line is not in the actual episode.  It should be just after Shorofsky breaks up the fight between Danny and Leroy. In the episode Julie tells Shorofsky the guys had just found out that Mr Crandall is being fired. Shorofsky is shocked and then repeats "Mr Crandall is being fired" and the scene ends. 
In the script Shorofsky already knows Crandall has been fired and in the scene after he breaks up the fight he says: "They come in here with their budget reports and they treat us like digits. They have to do that because everyone knows digits do not bleed when cut, and the final result is they end up pitting friends against each other. They are without merit, but they are winning damn it, they are winning." 

I've always wondered if some of the scenes that appear in the scripts but aren't in the episodes were actually filmed. In this case it was. Wish we had access to the deleted scenes that were filmed and were not in the episodes. Shame they couldn't have been extras on the DVDs.
