Episode #1.3 - S1-E3

Continuity mistake: In the scene at Catherine's cafe, the lid on Richard's plastic bottle is off, on, off again. In the same part of the scene, the mug changes position between shots - its handle is pointing away from Richard or towards him, and when they ask him about voodoo, it even is alternatively in his hand or on the table depending on the angle, back and forth several times. (00:17:00)

Man Overboard: Part 2 - S6-E6

DI Jack Mooney: My grandfather told me a story once, about these two wolves fighting inside all of us. And one of them is anger, envy, self-pity, regret. The other one is love, truth, faith, hope, that sort of thing.
And I asked him "which one of the wolves would win?" And do you know what he said?
"The one you feed."
