#whocares - S3-E6

Other mistake: There is a shot of the NIH building. The lintel says The National Institutes of Health, the correct name. Cut to a shot supposedly inside the building, where a wall hanging says National Institute of Health. So does a brochure given to an actor. (00:17:00)

More quotes from Designated Survivor

Show generally

Question: Just rewatched the series and in the episode where they are operating on President Kirkman to remove the bullet fragments I noticed what I think was a secret service agent in the background of the OR. Is this normal practice for when a president is under anaesthetic or a medical procedure, or was this just because it was after an attempted assassination?

Answer: Yes, it's normal. When President Reagan was shot, they were in the OR with him.

Answer: It would be normal procedure, yes. The Secret Service accompanies the president everywhere, except in very limited circumstances (for example, they don't go into the bathroom with him, or stand in his room while he sleeps). When Bill Clinton had an operation to fix a torn tendon, there was an agent in the operating room throughout the procedure.
