Honor Code - S6-E7

Plot hole: In the previous episode, when Jimmy offers to apologise to everyone about stealing money to pay back gambling debts, Eugene tells him not to, since if the other firm members found out they'd be obligated to report the theft, which could endanger the firm. This episode, Eugene justifies reporting Jimmy to the bar for saving the boy's life against the client's orders by shouting about Jimmy's gambling theft in front of all the firm members whom he previously said he didn't want to know about it.

Plot hole: The way slipstream works is wildly inconsistent across the show. Sometimes, they have to travel a significant distance to find the nearest slip point, and other times, when it's required by the plot, there's a slip point conveniently right next to the ship.
