Continuity mistake: When Nolan is asking for advice from his ethics teacher, she says, "It's 2021." However, with the 2019 start time for the rookies and a supposed year's probation, this shouldn't be possible from the show's timeline perspective.

Suggested correction: Nolan was not a rookie when he joined the ethics class; he was already a P2 and finishing his college degree to become a training officer.
The previously suggested correction is incorrect; he is finishing his college degree to become a training officer, but he and his fellow rookies are not at the P2 stage for roughly another month (with Nolan having an additional month after that after the events of Season 2). The original continuity mistake at the top of this thread is 100% accurate.
Trivia: Alan Tudyk asks the resident cop if there were any aliens at the hotel. In Resident Alien, Alan Tudyk played a real alien. (00:04:10)
