We're All Crazy Sometimes - S4-E11
Question: A woman is on a breathing tube and she is in a coma. She later undergoes an operation and wakes up due to a dopamine inflow. She is talking normally although she still has the breathing mechanism (albeit not connected by a hose) in her neck. How can she talk normally with that tube still in her?
Continuity mistake: At the end of the episode, Sean, Dr. Glassman, and Lea are sitting in the burned-down house. When Lea says the baby is kicking, Sean puts his hand on her belly to feel it. When the camera switches angles and only shows Lea, it's only her hand on her belly. When it switches back, Sean's hand is back on her belly. (00:41:32)

Answer: That's a tracheal tube. Most people can talk perfectly normal with tracheal tubes. Check out Mattie Stepanek for one of the most famous examples. He had a tracheal tube for most of his life and never had problems with speech.
Got it. Many thanks.
