Continuity mistake: When Cash joins Sarah in the carriage, she's holding her suitcase and a kerchief in her lap. She removes the cloth and lets him take the bag. But when the shot cuts to a wider angle, she does this again and he takes the bag from her a second time. (00:34:00)

Factual error: Cable refers throughout the episode to "The Civil War." This term was not in use until well after the era in which the series is set. It was known at the time as "The War Between the States," or, in the South, "The War of Northern Aggression."

Revealing mistake: The waterfront set always features a blue, cloud-dotted sky, even when the streets are wet from supposed rain. And the clouds are static, never moving or changing, betraying the fact that they're part of a backdrop.
