The Foxes and Hounds Affair - S2-E4
Corrected entry: Professor Stemmler tells Solo that the hypodermic he's just been injected with contained water rather than the Minus-X drug. He'd have been better off with the drug, or at least a nice, blood-friendly saline solution. An injection of plain water can cause haemolysis (cell membrane rupture), which could be lethal. Absolutely not an urban myth. Professor Stemmler should know better.
The Four-Steps Affair - S1-E21
Revealing mistake: Solo is driving on a country road through a wooded area with no street lights. So what are all those bright round lights reflecting on the hood and windshield of his car? UFOs? (00:10:10)
Napoleon Solo: My name is Napoleon Solo. I'm an enforcement agent in Section Two here. That's operations and enforcement.
Illya Kuryakin: I am Illya Kuryakin. I am also an enforcement agent. Like my friend Napoleon, I go and I do whatever I am told to by our chief.
Alexander Waverly: Hmm? Oh, yes. Alexander Waverly. Number One in Section One. In charge of this, our New York headquarters. It's from here that I send these young men on their various missions.
Trivia: Thrush, U.N.C.L.E.'s nemesis organization, was an international bad-guy conglomerate with the single-minded goal of taking over the world. Though "Thrush" was never an acronym on the show itself, U.N.C.L.E. novelist David McDaniel assigned it a meaning that became fan canon: he called it the Technological Hierarchy for the Removal of Undesirables and the Subjugation of Humanity. That pretty much described Thrush's nefarious ambitions to a T.
Question: Why would Solo compare the descending elevator to an Eaton's department store, when these only existed in Canada?

Correction: There's nothing in the scene to infer Stemmler was talking about "plain" water. Given Solo's lack of medical expertise, it would be easier to say "water" than "saline solution" (which is still water).
