Death to Smoochy

Factual error: When Randall is covered in gasoline, he would have been immediately immolated as he struck the match, as the fumes from the puddle of gas around him would have ignited.

Factual error: Smoochy gets tricked into performing at a Nazi rally in New Jersey but the police bullhorn says NYPD and his mugshot is also NYPD.

Continuity mistake: When Randolph is bombarded by reporters after framing Sheldon, someone throws an egg and his head is all slimed after the egg breaks. However, in a few quick shots after the egg hits him, the amount of egg on his forehead changes shot to shot from quite a bit to very little, and then when he finally gets in the car, there is no trace of egg on his head.
