Emergency!

Transition - S4-E15

Visible crew/equipment: When the three victims of the accident are all in treatment 2 with Morton, in the wide shot just as Brackett, Early, Roy, John, and Gil walk in, at the top of the screen we can see the boom mic dipping down into view.

Visible crew/equipment: When Dixie and Carol stand in the ER hallway, talking about the three accident victims coming in and being swamped, there are two tape marks on the floor near their feet, where Carol and the other nurse were standing just before Dix walked over.

Visible crew/equipment: When Roy and Johnny find the two puncture marks, from the snakebite, on the unconscious man's leg, the outlines of the lav mic transmitter and wire are visible on the back, left side of Johnny's shirt. It's also visible on the back of Roy's shirt after he is hit with the cobra venom, and on the back of Gil's shirt when he brings in the defibrillator.

Visible crew/equipment: After Johnny and Roy arrive at the amusement park where the boy was injured on the go-kart, when the guy who runs the go-kart track walks over to Roy and Johnny, the outline of the mic transmitter is visible on the back of his shirt, and moments later it's also visible on the left side of Johnny's shirt. Also, when the guys scare the second boy with the huge needle, as he runs away the outline of the mic transmitter is visible on the back of the boy's vest.

To Buy or Not to Buy - S5-E14

Other mistake: On scene at the traffic accident, when the woman and the boy with non-serious injuries are seated at the back of the ambulance, neither Roy or Johnny are going along with them to Rampart, yet Johnny puts the drug box inside the back of the ambulance with them, and the ambulance drives off. With their drug box! Captain Stanley even says that he'll advise dispatch that they're available for a run at the scene, while the guys will be looking for the dog.

The Promise - S3-E11

Trivia: During Richard's rescue from the ledge at Rampart, the snorkel that Roy and Brackett climb onto is Truck 127, from Station 127 aka Station 51. Truck 127 is used in many episodes requiring a snorkel, including 1x6, "Dealer's Wild" and 3x16, "Fools." There's a particularly nice shot at the end of this episode, when Engine 51 and Squad 51 are parked parallel to each other, and when Johnny responds to dispatch that Squad 51 is available, Truck 127 drives away between 51's vehicles. Nice touch.

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.
