I can't help to notice that at the last scene in the bar, her hand looks odd and stiff like a prosthetic. Anyone else think the same?

Sorry I don't remember, but I do remember something odd about the way she stuck out her hand when she went to shake his hand.

Yes, that the scene.

Well; I guess it could signal a type of foreshadowing, but I don't think there's going to be sequel to this movie. Otherwise real or not (faked or not faked;) it could indicate to them she's more on the level of the brothers, or give the appearance that she is (to break the ice) so she could secretly solve the case. I don't think she's there because deep down she's really interested in them.

Well, your post made me view her scenes again :) although her character is stiff in her ways, she does not have a prosthetic on any of her arms/hands. Most visible while interrogating Seth Macfarlane and later the Warden. So when she sits in the bar in the final scene, she just acts out her character - being stiff and somewhat cold.

Thanks! With the help of home video; that made checking that out much easier! Of course we all saw it at a theatre with only one chance to notice something even if it's just fleeting. Thanks for checking it out!

Fiancée and I just finished watching. Had her rewind it because I saw the same thing. Hard to tell if it’s intentional - but sure seems that way. Look at the location Kylo Ren sets the bottle down. Perfectly placed to create distortion where the sleeve/arm transition should be.

Interesting, but I don't know what that might be trying to tell or say. Thanks for the extra info!

... but while interrogating Seth Macfarlane and later the Warden, you see that both her hands are there.

This whole conversation has me up in arms.

It is your right.... to bear arms.

The further I've looked into this query the more I think it's a device that either Hilary Swank or Steven Soderbergh used just to mess with fans. It can hardly be a coincidence, given the myriad people who noticed the appearance of her "prosthetic arm" at the end of the movie, particularly with their use of bright pink nail polish, something to draw your eye to it, while it rests awkwardly on the counter. (Who sets their arm on a counter like that? Again, Uber awkward!) She also wore her hair down, which is out of character. I say, since fans are always searching for Easter eggs in movies, since there are two actors starring in Logan Lucky who also appear via the Star Wars franchise, I'll go out on a tractor beam and say this was a Jedi mind trick.

If you pay attention to her arms/hands in previous scenes, she is seen to have full use of them (e.g. there's a scene where she puts her fingers to her temples in frustration). So, she is NOT an amputee and does NOT require a prosthetic.

Therefore it's reasonable to assume that she is deploying a prop in the bar, presumably as an easy "ice breaker" with Adam Driver's character. This also explains the conspicuous arm/hand placement and nail polish. It's not just for the benefit of the audience, it's also her character drawing the attention of Driver's character. (Either that, or it's actually just her arm and it looked a bit weird due to lighting.)
