Deliberate mistake: At the start of the episode, the family is watching a show called "Sherry and the Anus." When Sherry opens the door and walks in, there is a Star Wars poster hanging above Anus' dresser. However, it doesn't resemble Star Wars at all. The font is all wrong, the lettering is the wrong colour, and the ship on the front is some generic-looking spy plane and nothing like a Star Wars fighter. This was obviously done to avoid any copyright issues, as this was before the Lucas partnership later on. (00:00:07)
There's Something About Paulie - S2-E16
Deliberate mistake: At the dealership, Lois pops the hood of the red car and shows there is no engine in the vehicle. She pulls out a paper that just has a drawing of an engine. Yet moments later, Peter is able to start the car and rev a nonexistent engine and drive it a couple of feet before the wheel falls off. (00:02:40)
Suggested correction: Quagmire considers the rest of them to be his best friends. He isn't drinking because they can't drink. He is complaining because since his friends can't drink - he won't drink, so he is still pissed.
It's still a plot hole considering Quagmire's age. I think the writers messed up big time.
You make a good point, but it's awkward to be that one person who is drinking while surrounded by people who can't. So, I understand the correction that was submitted above. Because his friends are not drinking, he now feels that he can't.
It's 100% a mistake. Quagmire simply would buy them alcohol the same way Brian did when they realized he could.
