Emergency!

The Firehouse Four - S4-E11

Continuity mistake: When Dr. Morton leaves the room of the patient who attempted suicide to get Jack, he takes the pill bottle from Dr. Early, carries the medical chart holder, and is wearing a stethoscope around his neck, but in the hallway when he gets Jack the pill bottle and chart holder are gone, and the stethoscope is in his pocket. Then, when they walk back into the room, Morton's holding the bottle and chart holder, and the stethoscope is back around his neck.

Continuity mistake: While Johnny tries to reach the man who fell over the cliff, when the bicycle falls to the bottom of the canyon both tires break free from the frame, but when the officer retrieves the bicycle, only one of the tires is off, the other is undamaged and on the frame.

The Firehouse Four - S4-E11

Continuity mistake: While Johnny is trying to reach the man who fell over the cliff, the bicycle falls all the way to the bottom of the canyon, and then there's a shot of the man and we can see that the bicycle is still above him at the side of the cliff, just before Chet says over the HT, "Lower him, Cap, the victim's broken loose."

The Firehouse Four - S4-E11

Continuity mistake: After Squad 51 gets back to the station, Roy and Johnny remain in the squad discussing Roy being the coach, and when the dispatcher drops the tones, we see a closeup of five pair of legs rushing out of the kitchen, even though we should only be seeing four pair of legs, since Roy and Johnny are already in the squad.

The Mouse - S4-E20

Revealing mistake: At the apartment complex fire, after Johnny is knocked unconscious by the explosion, when the Pasadena fireman finds him and has to lift him up, it's funny how even though Johnny's unconscious we can see that he actually helps to stand himself up, so the fireman can lift him up and carry him out.

Breakdown - S6-E15

Charlie: I think you guys are playing games with me, and I don't like it.
Roy: Now, wait a minute. We're not playing games. We don't play games with the equipment...
Captain Stanley: Wait, hold on. C'mon everybody, look we're all on the same side here, aren't we?
Charlie: I wonder.
Captain Stanley: Charlie, why can't we put the squad in the shop and have us a reserve vehicle here?
Charlie: No, no, Hank. Not until I'm 100% sure that I can't fix it. If there's anything wrong with it. This coffee stinks. [Leaves the room.]
Captain Stanley: You guys playing some kind of joke on him?
John: We didn't make the coffee!
Captain Stanley: Not the coffee, you twit, the squad.
Roy: Cap, there's something wrong with that squad out there.
Captain Stanley: [sigh.] All right, if you say so... I made the coffee.

The Mouse - S4-E20

Question: The old man that comes in with his wife that can't breathe, the one that the head nurse tries to counsel and tempts him with a cup of coffee. I believe he is Alfred Hitchcock, though his name is not listed anywhere. Alfred Hitchcock is known for his cameo appearances in his own shows and in other shows. Can someone confirm that this is him? This is driving me nuts... It is toward the end of the episode, but I cannot give you times.

Answer: I believe you are speaking of the old man, Mr. Wilson. He's played by J. Pat O'Malley.

Bishop73

Correct, it was J. Pat O'Malley...he also played the grandfather with his grandson when their rocket exploded, and also played "Old Bill" in the episode with Ann Prentiss, where Gage saves the little girl from the burning tree house, and her mother falls in love with him.
