Factual error: In the scene where the kidnapper is talking to his brother from prison, the payphone cord is too long for a prison payphone. Prisons use a short cord to prevent inmates from strangling someone.

Continuity mistake: Bridget doesn't seem to be aging as she should. In the first season Joe and Allison talk about their '6 year old' and she doesn't have any friends, Ariel is 9 and Marie is a baby. Rolling on to season 4 - Ariel is 14/15, Bridget is 9 (the episode when she's talking to the credit card guy Mr Reshmi - Joe tells him off for speaking for 10 minutes to a 9 year old). So, my point is - it appears five years have passed - Ariel has gone from 9 to 14/15 and Bridget is 9 - that's only 3 years. Marie was approximately a year old or so in the first season and appears to be 3 or 4 in season 4. It would make sense if Bridget were only 4 in the first season and five years later would be 9 but she's mentioned as being a six year old when the teacher tells Joe and Allison that she doesn't have any friends at school And Then meets Bobby Le Shell. Please correct me if I'm wrong as I'd love to hear an explanation for this.

Suggested correction: The age makes sense because Ariel is around 11 in the first season.
No, Ariel is 9. It's explicitly spoken in the dialogue.
Joe Dubois: Ever since you made the decision not to go to law school, to go to work for the D.A. as a consultant, I don't know, you seem kinda.
Allison Dubois: Bitchy? Cranky? Pissed off?
Joe Dubois: You can read minds.
Being Joey Carmichael - S4-E15
Trivia: In several scenes, for instance when Allison is talking to Teddy's ghost in the kitchen or when they're eating, you can see the names "Harlow" and "Enzo" spelled out in magnetic letters on the fridge. These are the names of Patricia Arquette's (Allison's) children. You can see the names separate and together in some other episodes too, but rarely as clearly as in this one.
