Buona Sera, Mr. Campbell: Part 1 - S7-E6

She then escapes through the window and older bad guy runs after her, and she hides in the bushes. A moment later all clear, she runs the opposite direction and straight into younger bad guy, who has somehow miraculously 'recovered' from getting hit over the head with a cast iron skillet.

As My Career Lay Dying - S6-E3

Revealing mistake: At the beginning of the episode, Hank is re-watching Larry's announcement that he won't be renewing his contract after this season. The video tape that he is watching is sticking out of the VCR, which means it's been ejected and can't be playing. His assistant then comes in and says "This again? I'm taking this tape away from you," and removes it, so we know it wasn't on air or from a different source. (00:00:25)
