Continuity mistake: Ed's office is located directly behind the right-hand side of the bridge (ie. the side of Kelly's chair, and Bortus and Talla's stations). Ed's office has a prominent window as well. Yet during the closeup flyby of the bridge in this episode at about 55 minutes, the camera pans past the outer hull of that section and there are no visible windows. At that close range we should be seeing directly into Ed's office. Perhaps the digital model makers forgot there should have been a window there.
Continuity mistake: Throughout the episode Bortus and Kelly's uniforms change colour between blue and black and random points, most noticeable in the courtroom scene. (00:54:30)
Answer: No official reason has been given. Halston Sage has only stated in an interview that leaving the show was not her choice. It is considered that her possible return is "open ended", and while there has been no official announcement, she did make a reappearance at the end of Season 2.
