The Thing That Wouldn't Die (2) - S6-E20
Corrected entry: At the end of the show the aliens leave and Dick chops Mary's neck to supposedly help her forget he ever existed. However, what about all the others? It makes no sense to make Mary forget them when everyone else would still remember them. How could she explain not knowing Dick when she would invariably have his stuff around or hear others talking about them?
Corrected entry: When Tommy goes to college, he shows up back at home with laundry, saying that he is only an hour away. Later when Tommy is trying to enter a fraternity, Sally goes to help, and when she gets there she claims that it was a four hour trip.
Corrected entry: When Dick and Harry call the radio show to try and win Gordon Lightfoot tickets, the DJ asks them to correctly identify Lightfoot's first single in order to win the tickets. Harry answers with "If You Could Read My Mind" and wins. "If You Could Read My Mind" was not Gordon Lightfoot's first single, it was his fifteenth.
Correction: The DJ asked what was Gordon Lightfoot's first American single, not what was his first single ever. "If You Could Read My Mind" was also Lightfoot's first charting single in the US, peaking at #5 in 1971.
Correction: Dick only erased Mary's memory because she was torn between her love for him and her desire to stay on Earth. It had nothing to do with making sure no one remembered them, just to hopefully help Mary move on with her life.
