Emergency!

Bottom Line - S6-E17

Revealing mistake: While the guys are eating chilli at the table, when Station 51 is dispatched to 'man down', notice that when they're at the scene, both paramedics are wearing their jackets and Johnny is wearing his helmet. We never see Johnny's face in any of the wide shots, because the entire time it's the double with Roy. We only see Johnny alone in a few closeups, pickup shots which were filmed later, and we can see the style of the houses in the closeups do not resemble the houses in the other shots. The real Johnny is back, once they reach the hospital.

The Game - S6-E1

Trivia: It's in this episode that the Heimlich Maneuver is used for the first time by the paramedics. At the USC game, when a guy is choking on a hot dog, John and Roy are called, and John uses the Heimlich. Up until season 6 we've seen the guys use other methods, such as the ChokeSaver which look like huge white tweezers, to remove obstructions in an airway, as seen in 4x9, "Foreign Trade."

Question: Why is the driveway in front of the station always wet? Day or night, whenever they pull in or out it looks like it was just hosed down.

Answer: It is standard practice to wet down driveways so that they stand out in a long shot.
