The Last of Us picture

Look for the Light - S1-E9

Factual error: In the giraffe scene, the Salt Lake LDS Temple can be seen in the background. However, this view of the temple is as it looks today. The building has been undergoing earthquake and stability renovations for a few years (as of 2024), and is completely shrouded in scaffolding. That is the view shown here, and not what the temple would have looked like when "abandoned" in 2003. Also, many of the tall downtown buildings shown in these shots did not exist in 2003.

Beyond Logic - S1-E10

Factual error: Season 1, Episode 10: Lee is trying to get out of the underworld on his capsule with the rescued others. They all get in, and he closes the top hatch by turning the hatch wheel clockwise. Trying to take off, a wire becomes disconnected outside, and Lee has to go out again. He turns the hatch wheel clockwise, and this time it opens instead of closing. If it was clockwise for close, it should be counterclockwise to open.
