Corrected entry: In the 11/17/06 episode, Jason is shot. In the 11/20/06 episode, Liz finds Jason and takes him to her art studio. Jason tells Liz he can't go to the hospital because the police are looking for him, so Liz will have to remove the bullet from his leg. Liz explains that she's a nurse, not a doctor, and doesn't have the training to do such a procedure. Eventually Liz gives in and removes the bullet. Jason's Mom is a surgeon and has covered up for her son before during his brushes with the law. Why didn't someone think to call her to remove the bullet?

Correction: In the same episode Elizabeth begs him to seek more capable help, but he implores Elizabeth to tell NO ONE he is alive because "the more who know, the more likely I will be caught". Specifically he states not even Sam or Emily, two people he trusts even more than he trusts Monica (his mother).

Corrected entry: During the 7/5/05 episode, Reese Marshall reveals to Ric that her real name is Charlotte Reese Roberts. Considering that "Reese" is trying to hide her identity from Carly, her childhood best friend, why would she use her given middle name as her new name? Surely, Carly would know the middle name of her former best friend. And, since Carly is already suspicious that Reese is hiding something, Carly should have been able to figure out who "Reese" really is.

Correction: Carly may be suspicious of Reese Marshall, but there is nothing substantial to connect Reese to her high school best friend, Charlotte Roberts, who Carly thinks died years ago in a traffic accident that she herself witnessed. Reese is unrecognizable these days because of reconstructive surgery. Carly and Reese may have been best friends in high school, but it certainly does not mean that she would have known Charlotte Roberts' middle name was Reese, if Charlotte never mentioned it. And even if Carly knew Reese's middle name all those years ago, it still does not mean that Carly would actually remember the name or even make the bizarre connection. Yet.

Corrected entry: During the 8/9/04 episode, Jason is arrested. He uses the phone at the police station to call Sonny's cell phone. Sonny picks up his phone, looks at the caller I.D. screen to see who is calling, answers it, and immediately says "I heard. What the hell happened?" Since Jason was using the phone at the police station, not his own cell phone, how would Sonny know it was Jason that was calling?

Allyson

Correction: The caller ID shows the name, PCPD, as well as the phone number. Plus, Sonny is a mob boss in a small town and has been arrested many times so it would only make sense that he would be familiar with the police dept's phone number. So, if he had already heard about Jason, he would know that it was him calling.
