Pilot - S1-E1

Continuity mistake: In the pilot episode we see the Son and Daughter listening to the start of the story on how Ted met their mother. In the final episode of the show it's revealed that the whole story has taken place in one sitting. However, the clothes the kids are wearing and the items around them are different in the pilot episode to every other episode. The sofa is a different design, the cushions appear etc. (00:00:45)

Suggested correction: Many people buy another toothbrush to take on trips and since they were supposed to be going away, they probably decided to use them at home, as if this was their trip.

The whole point of the mistake is they say they have always shared a toothbrush. So why would they use separate on a trip?
