Other mistake: At the beginning of the episode, there are a few sequences with police cars going at notable speed down the streets of New York. In a few instances, you can see people gathered in street corners, looking at the filming. One egregious example is when the criminals loading the van are startled by the sirens. In the following shot, two bystanders look at the car, then turn towards the camera, and one even takes a few steps back to get out of frame. (00:03:40)

Starring: Telly Savalas, Kevin Dobson, Dan Frazer
Continuity mistake: During the credits at the beginning of the episode, watch the camera car view of the street where the armoured van is parked ("Created by Abby Mann"). It's dawn and the van casts a very distinct shadow on the asphalt. Mere seconds later, the getaway car of the robbers gets in the intersection, and the lighting of the scene is flat, shot during a different part of the day. (00:01:35)
Kojak: You can't corrupt it. And you know why? Because to corrupt it, you've got to show how corrupt you really are.
