Other mistake: The opening has a Navy officer in an SUV with his partner. The bad guys run them into a river, the passenger survives by letting air out of the right front tire. During the investigation, Mark Harmon finds the tire with a very cleanly-cut valve stem. There is no way a drowning person could cut the stem off that clean with anything.

Factual error: LaSalle's 2015 pickup truck is shown with a green Louisiana license plate. Those plates were only distributed in 2011 and 2012 in celebration of Louisiana's Statehood bicentennial. Furthermore, pick-up trucks in Louisiana are always provided with basic seven digit plates with only the state name, the digits, and the state motto Sportsman's Paradise. The vehicle owner could request a vanity plate with a specific order of digits, or a sport's design, but again, the state hood could not be one.
Trivia: Zoe McLellan, who plays Agent Brody, was a main cast member in the final season of JAG, the parent series of the NCIS franchise.
Question: How does Bakula afford that bar he owns? Do Feds really make enough to make such purchases?

Answer: It should also be noted, just because someone owns a small business (in this case a bar) doesn't mean they're rich, or they had to be rich or make enough money from another job in order to afford it. Banks provide small business loans and having steady employment, good credit history, solid business plan, etc would allow someone to get a loan. Most business owners even say they "own" whatever bar, restaurant, store, or business they run even if it's leased or mortgaged.

A proprietor may lease a building but they do own the business that is housed within it.
