Corrected entry: Sam's friend Eddie shows up and says they made a bet a year ago while drinking tequila. This isn't possible, prior to his "falling off the wagon" when Diane left he hadn't had a drink in about five years (he told Diane 3 years in the pilot episode) and a year hadn't passed since he's fallen off the wagon when Diane left.

Revealing mistake: When Frasier comes into the chalet after skiing he doesn't show any of the visible effects after a hard day on the slopes. Meaning, his face isn't even flushed from the cold, his hair is perfectly combed after wearing a hat and there is not even a drop of snow on his boots.
Woody: How can Darth Vader be Luke Skywalker's father? They don't even have the same last name.
Trivia: The portrait of Geronimo hanging in the bar was a tribute to Nicholas Colasanto after he died. The portrait originally hung in his dressing room.

Question: When I streamed this episode, there were a couple of small scenes missing (Sam explaining that his cigars were a gift from Fidel Castro via Reggie Jackson; Sam kissing Rebecca goodbye). I know they used to cut scenes to cram in more commercials after the initial broadcast, but with a streaming service, you're not limited to a time slot. Why not air the whole thing?
Answer: They sometimes acquire episodes from syndicated reruns. The ones with the cut scenes. Sundance channel have some episodes of M.A.S.H. uncut.

Correction: I am a recovering alcoholic, and teetotal, but even I occasionally have a relapse, generally when meeting old drinking buddies. I regret it to hell the next morning, but it happens - to me and to Sam.
