Other mistake: While Roy, John, and Chet are talking about the party, and how emotional it all was, we hear Hookrader say, "Lopez," just as he walks into the kitchen where Marco Lopez is sitting, but the subtitles read, "Hello, guys."

Captain Hook - S6-E8

Other mistake: When Johnny and Roy rappel down the cliff to the downed police traffic helicopter, Johnny gets on the HT and says, "All right, Cap, this is HT 51..." but the subtitles actually read, "Hi, Cap, this is HE 51..." After the rescue, Captain Stanley tells Roy and Johnny to get checked out at the hospital, and he'll have Chet drive the Squad in, so Johnny replies, "Okay," but subtitles read that Chet replied, even though Chet is still down below with Marco. Subtitles from Universal Studios 2010 DVD.

Other mistake: When Roy and Johnny rescue the deputy from the wrecked chopper that sank in the water, they emerge from the water soaked from head to toe, but when they are pulled to the top of the cliff, Johnny and Roy are both completely dry except for a few small wet patches on their shirts.

Character mistake: When Johnny and Roy are with the heatstroke victim in the polar bear costume, they're on different sides of the victim when Roy says, "Twitching here in both arms," and Johnny looks at her left arm and responds, "Yeah, the same thing over here too." And then it happens again, when Roy says, "Got some heavy spasms in these arms," and Johnny responds, "Yeah, same thing over here."

Continuity mistake: During the police chopper rescue, three ropes are tied off onto Engine 51's eyes, and when Mike backs the engine up while the stokes carrying Frank is pulled up, in shots facing the engine the three lines are being pulled backwards simultaneously, but in the shots of Marco, the stokes, and the ground, only the line with the stokes is being pulled up, the other two ropes are lying on the ground completely still.

Trivia: A plaque that honors Bob Cinader is mounted on Station 127's wall, outside beside the apparatus bay door. The plaque reads: "Robert A. Cinader's Involvement with the Los Angeles County Fire Department began in 1971 when he filmed a pilot television movie about the county's fledgling paramedic program."Emergency!" aired in 1972 and ran as a prime time show for five years with a weekly audience of 13 million people. The show brought attention and acclaim to the Los Angeles County Fire Department. More importantly, it showed public officials across the nation that lives could be saved by local paramedic programs. As a result, Bob Cinader can be credited for making significant contributions to improving Emergency Medical Services. His Involvement and commitment was so intense, and his study of emergency services so thorough, he became an expert in the field. In 1975, he was appointed to the county's Emergency Medical Services Commission, where he served until his death in 1982. In recognition of his extraordinary public service, on May 28,1985, the board of supervisors voted unanimously to pay special tribute to Bob Cinader by naming Fire Station 127 in Carson, which was used in the filming of "Emergency!", in his honor." Fire Station 127 is named the Robert A. Cinader Memorial Fire Station.
