Although we never actually get to see this character, her imminent arrival drastically increases the thieves' need to dispose of their unwanted "guest", Mrs. Miller. Gregory's mother to a lesser extent, as he often talks about her, especially when trying to seduce Ingrid.

That Darn Cat! / int_d62dd556	comment	The Chessmaster: Patti, especially when she manipulates a discouraged Zeke and the FBI into trying one more time to follow DC, by prodding reluctant jeweler Mr. Hofstedder to give them a false tip that the gold watch found on the cat indeed belonged to kidnap victim Mrs. Miller, as his store sold it to her. It works.

That Darn Cat! / int_dca70c44	type	Reasonable Authority Figure
That Darn Cat! / int_dca70c44	comment	Reasonable Authority Figure: The head of the FBI in the original believes Patty's story about her cat finding a kidnapped woman's wristwatch, and is willing to put a reasonable amount of time and resources into investigating. He also listens to Zeke's input when considering ending the investigation. This is less true in the remake.

Also, during an inspection of the bank robbers' apartment by their cranky landlady Mrs. Davis, a dollar bill from their loot which prior to her arrival, had been accidentally blown up to the ceiling by a fan, literally falls into her hands and she happily pockets it as rent money, without even stopping to consider where it came from.
