Heart & Soul - S8-E16

Corrected entry: The idea that the Admiral accidentally ejects himself while Harm remains in the Tomcat to fly isn't a possibility. In a Tomcat, if either the pilot or the RIO chooses to eject, both seats will be ejected. If the Admiral inadvertently ejected, he would have taken Harm with him.

Correction: F-14/TA-4/T-2/F-18 (2-seat variants): Front seat *always* fires rear seat. Rear seat may or may not fire front seat, depending on position of command eject handle. So the command ejection handle may have been positioned so he didn't fire the front seat.

Steve Kozak

Correction: Bud doesn't refer to Lt. Carter. He refers to the marine sergeant.

Ares - S1-E21

Corrected entry: When LCMR Rabb and Lt. Pike get off the chopper on the USS Daniel Boone, they are wearing uniforms with no flight suits on. It is Navy regulation that you have on a full flight suit while in a chopper and not going into combat.

Correction: Not for JAG Officers.

Drop Zone - S5-E20

Corrected entry: Col. Mackenzie found the confidential report in her car, AFTER she turned off the alarm. And used her key to open the door. How did the report get in there?

Correction: It is strongly implied that Lt. Singer put the report in Mac's car to sabotage her case. If she were dishonest enough to do that, it's more than reasonable to believe she could have stolen Mac's keys and then replaced them after planting the report.

Desert Son - S1-E4

Corrected entry: After passing the coordinates, we hear Williams say "Do you copy?". The reply he gets is "Negative." At that point Williams should have resent the coordinates, as the coordinates were either not received or understood.

Correction: And that's exactly what he does. He repeats the direction bearing 136 and then the scene cuts to the captain, so the distance surely was transmitted as well, we just didn't hear it. No mistake in the radio transmission.

Ronnie Bischof

Washington Holiday - S2-E9

Factual error: In the whole episode, Romania is depicted as a monarchy with the king in a position that allows him to make political decisions. However, Romania ceased to be a monarchy in 1947. By the time depicted in the episode (circa 1997), Romania was a republic and its head of state was the president. Members of the ex-royal family did not hold any positions in the Romanian government and were certainly not authorized to represent Romania in international events.

Ice Queen (1) - S8-E20

Vivian Blackadder: Amad bin Atwa supplied money and explosives to Hasan Mohammed, who executed the attack on the Cole. They're an all-Jihad team that's been together for nine years. If Bin Atwa gives up Hasan, I want in on the kill.
Gibbs: We're not tasked with capturing Hasan Mohammed.
Vivian Blackadder: Gibbs, my brother died on the Cole.
Gibbs: I know that.
Vivian Blackadder: Then get me in on this!
Gibbs: You're not here to use NCIS as your personal instrument of revenge. You get your head around this murder case, or you pull your tailored suit out of mothballs and you march your butt right back to the J. Edgar Hoover Building.

The Bridge at Kang So Ri - S5-E18

Trivia: When Harm is landing the 747, there is a camera shot of Air Force One. (The Presidential seal which is located near the forward doors is briefly visible) There is also a scene immediately afterwards of vehicles following the plane on the runway. These two scenes are from the Harrison Ford movie, Air Force One.

Dangerous Game - S8-E4

Question: Two questions and apology if I have the wrong Deputy Sheriff. 1. Why did Sheriff Denton want Deputy Gault out on that particular road? 2. Why would Lt. Reynolds still be charged with negligent homicide after it was revealed that the sheriff purposely had Gault stationed out there? Reynolds even stood by that he thought it was another part of the training exercise and wasn't aware that he was being chased by an actual law enforcement officer.
