Character mistake: Or continuity: When Ricky enters the Mertz's apartment, waking everyone up, little Ricky starts crying in the crib, and Ricky moves closer and accidentally says, 'Why is she awake?' instead of 'he,' as his own baby daughter Lucie was almost 2 at the time.

Character mistake: After Ethel chooses the ladies who'll play instruments for their own orchestra, Fred enters the Ricardo apartment with muffs over his ears as off-key plucky piano is heard in the background, indicating Ethel is playing very badly, when in all prior episodes she played fluently for any of their show warm-up numbers.
