Character mistake: When Jack tells Mr. Furley his brother is in town (before mentioning it was a "twin" brother who Jack made up), Mr. Furley gave a puzzled look and said "Your brother?" which appeared as if he didn't know Jack had a brother. However, in the previous season, Mr. Furley briefly met Jack's brother Lee, so he already should have known Jack had a brother (even if were to turn out to be a different brother).

An Anniversary Surprise - S3-E20
Trivia: Many TV stations over the years left out the original ending scene (the small party held before the Ropers leave). This scene explains how The New Landlord Mr. Furley knew Jack was supposedly gay in the first episode without anyone mentioning it. This ending reveals Roper told the new owners Jack was gay. Without seeing this ending, the storyline is unclear.
Question: I never understood the meaning of the dialogue in a scene with the Ropers in the first episode. Stanley says to Helen something like "Too bad you're not from India - you'd be sacred there." Helen then comes back by saying "and contented." What did both of these phrases mean?
Answer: Mr. Roper was basically comparing Mrs. Roper to a cow, which is a sacred and highly revered animal among Hindus; Mrs. Roper's retort meant that she wasn't happy with her marriage or current station in life, so she'd be happier as a cow in India.
