There was one other tiny but odd tiki cameo in the same movie, on this sparsely decorated incongruous set for Lola's home bar. She's got one tiki mug sitting out, plus three items from Disney imagineer Rolly Crump - two of his satirical "dope" posters ("Acid Pills" and "Betty's Bathtub Gin") and one little bottle on the shelf of "Horny Harriet's Aphrodisiac"!! Someone specifically moved the tiki to keep it in the shot and facing the camera -Randy
