Episode Trivia
Goof (revealing mistake): In the opening scene we see Hank staring at a computer screen, trying to write something. However, the open screen is clearly a blank page in Adobe Reader, noticeable by the gray bar on the left with the icons. Adobe Reader is not for composing files.
Goof (continuity error): At the beginning Hank opens a liqueur bottle and puts the cap on the table, the next shot shows the bottle with the cap back on. The third shot shows the bottle with the cap off again.
