When Seth Morley ('Frank Webb') is arrested at the Sheriff's office, the camera takes his point of view as he is dragged past Jim Phelps. The camera gyrates to simulate his struggles with the arresting deputies, and it momentarily pans high enough to reveal the walls of the real sound stage behind the false wall of the Sheriff's office interior set.
When Dana ('Lesley Warren') comes into Midge's bar for the first time, she asks for a beer. Midge (Loretta Swit) pantomimes filling the glass from the tap, but the camera reveals that the glass she places under the tap is already full before she begins to "fill" it.
When the car driven by Connie Hastings (Sharon Acker) is stopped by a flat tire in the teaser, the license plate on the vehicle is shown in close-up, and it is not a real California plate. Although it has the same color (yellow characters on a blue background) and letter-number combination (a group of three of each) of a real plate, the characters on the plate are flat, not stamped into metal, it does not say "California" on top, and it lacks the tabs at the top left and right corners for the month and year of the car's registration.
The boy playing young Jim has brown eyes, while Jim's eyes are blue.
When Dana walks in the bar and orders a beer, Midge pretends to pour a beer that's already in the glass.
The cell that Mr. Morley is put into does not have a toilet in it. Jail cells in the U.S.A. have toilets in them according to humanitarian law.
Jim is vacationing in the town where he grew up, but he has no family there, and none of his friends ask what he does for a living.
