Visible crew/equipment: Backstage before the dog play, after Betty Jo says, "I wish Mr. Kroger had never left him that $200," their dog, Dog, barks and enters. Three things occur in this shot: we see the shadows of the camera/mic move across the floor, a chalk mark becomes visible on the floor (where Billie Jo will soon stand), and we hear someone say, "Higgins," which is Dog's real name.

There's no way to escape," followed by a closeup of Mignon. Then, in the next wide shot, there are two chalk T-marks on the floor (it's not for the dog play), one where Linda Henning stands and one where she will stand in a moment.
