Other mistake: When Ace rescues the dog and replaces it with a toy dog, the toy dog is in an impossible position. Ace had to place it there when the door was still open, but if the door was closed after that the man would have knocked it over. (00:03:25)

Ending / spoiler
Directed by: Tom Shadyac
Starring: Jim Carrey, Courteney Cox, Sean Young, Tone Loc
Ray Finkle, the kicker for the Miami Dolphins in Super Bowl XVII, blamed Dan Marino for the whole thing (saying the held the ball laces in.) So he escaped from Shady Acres Mental Hospital and assumed the identity of Lois Einhorn, a missing hiker, in order to become leiutenant of Miami Police and get even with Dan Marino. So Einhorn is Finkle, the one who kidnapped Snowflake and killed Roger Pedactor. Ace reveals all of this to the police in a warehouse struggle between him and Einhorn, after which Einhorn is arrested and Marino and Snowflake are taken back to the Superbowl for the second half.

Lois Einhorn: Listen, pet dick. How would you like me to make your life a living hell?
Ace Ventura: Well, I'm not really ready for a relationship, Lois, but thank you for asking. Hey, maybe I'll give you a call sometime. Your number's still 911? All righty then.
Trivia: When Ace enters the club to meet the guy with long blond hair and glasses, the song playing is "Hammer Smashed Face" by death metal band Cannibal Corpse. Jim Carrey is a fan of Cannibal Corpse and insisted they appear in the movie since it takes place in Florida, the "capital" of death metal.

Chosen answer: That scene was cut originally by the director Tom Shadyack because the scene did not support the story and thought it slowed the film down. (And the scene was cut from the US version as well.) It was added back later in TV versions of the film. Fan enjoyed the scene so much they asked it be put back in the film version. I know the DVD has it because I own it. It's hilarious!
