Dropped from the episode, is a scene with Harvey's potential clients, which include the janitor, cafeteria lady, a waitress from Boobies, and the Bear, Phil's burial, a double of himself. Potamus also comes in and talks about how Phil found him like baby Moses and raised him as his own son.
In another deleted scene, Peanut accidentally gives Harvey the address of an adult store, instead of X's house. Peanut asks him if Harvey can pick up another couple of Girl Biz magazines, while he is also holding one (which has Judy Jetson on the front).
