Earl and Joy's Anniversary - S4-E10
Continuity mistake: Earl yells "Fire!" from inside the Crabshack's restroom. As he does, a woman with dark brown hair and wearing a blue plaid shirt gets up from her table to evacuate the restaurant. A long shot outside the restroom of Earl yelling "Fire!" has the same woman getting up and leaving again.
Number One - S1-E24
Continuity mistake: When Randy is scratching off the joke lottery ticket, the amount of scratched-off material left on the ticket changes between the three close-ups. One shot shows that the ticket was rubbed and not scratched (the area revealed has a haze to it).
Randy: I should be on that show where you have to remember the names of things. What's it called again?
Teacher Earl - S1-E5
Trivia: One of the lamps stolen by Ralph is the 'special prize' leg lamp won by the father in A Christmas Story (1983).
Answer: The premise of the show is he atones for mistakes he did in the past. Winning a car for Joy probably atones for something he did wrong regarding her in the past.
