Revealing mistake: The semi-automatic handgun the gunman is shooting has no rearward slide movement after each shot is fired for the shell casings to eject. The gun is firing but it's not reloading, however it's firing several shots. This is just not possible. In a few other previous gun scenes like the Mikey Palmice hit Christopher is dramatizing the recoil by moving the handgun up and down and snapping it in a way that just doesn't make any sense. (00:48:50)
Continuity mistake: In all of the episodes where Carmela hosts her film club, the theater seats in the Sopranos' screening room are gold, attached with wide trays for snacks, beverages, etc. But in this episode, when Tony and A.J. move the seats outside, they are maroon, without the wide trays.
Character mistake: During an argument between Tony and Carmela, they mention her ring, given to her in earlier episode. They refer to it as an emerald. It is a sapphire.
Other mistake: In the scene where Paulie Gualtieri goes to confront "Feech" La Manna at the bakery concerning the landscaping feud, the clock on the wall doesn't match the time on La Manna's watch or the clock on the wall behind La Manna's desk. The big clock says 11:55 while the other two say either 2:45 or 9:10.
