Continuity mistake: When Samantha and her date are in the health food restaurant, she orders wheatgrass shots.

Yet when Samantha picks up hers to drink, the liquid level has gone down a little way.

Answer: I'm a long-time fan of the show, having re-watched it many times, and I definitely remember slightly different dialogue at the end of that episode than what's on my DVD. I'm afraid I have no idea why this change might have been made or any other info, but you're not insane.
