Continuity mistake: During the raging brush fire, the scoop stretcher is sent down the cliff to the paramedics in the canyon. Once Gage has it and then drags it towards DeSoto, the boxes and gear switch positions between shots.

Continuity mistake: When Roy and Johnny are with the injured hiker (John Travolta), after the gear-filled stokes is lowered to them Johnny places it right behind the hiker's head, but in the hiker's closeups the stokes basket vanishes, only to reappear in wide shots.

Continuity mistake: After Johnny and Roy rappel down into the canyon to rescue the unconscious hiker, when Johnny reaches the hiker, suddenly there's a grey 12" reflective strip attached to the back of his life belt, where there was none before. Then it vanishes when he gets the stokes basket, but it reappears when they attach the stokes to Truck 43's snorkel.

Continuity mistake: When Johnny and Roy are with the boy whose head is trapped in the window under the porch, the guys use the Porta-Power to lift the top jamb. When the child gets his head out and his mom tells him to come out from under the porch, the top jamb is straight and level, but when the boy walks away with his mom, the top jamb has lifted itself again.

Revealing mistake: At the apartment complex fire, after Johnny is knocked unconscious by the explosion, when the Pasadena fireman finds him and has to lift him up, it's funny how even though Johnny's unconscious we can see that he actually helps to stand himself up, so the fireman can lift him up and carry him out.

The Promise - S3-E11

Trivia: During Richard's rescue from the ledge at Rampart, the snorkel that Roy and Brackett climb onto is Truck 127, from Station 127 aka Station 51. Truck 127 is used in many episodes requiring a snorkel, including 1x6, "Dealer's Wild" and 3x16, "Fools." There's a particularly nice shot at the end of this episode, when Engine 51 and Squad 51 are parked parallel to each other, and when Johnny responds to dispatch that Squad 51 is available, Truck 127 drives away between 51's vehicles. Nice touch.

Show generally

Question: In quite a few episodes of Emergency there is a character that the doctors and other nurses call Nurse Carol. She is the older nurse with dark hair. I would say she is on at least a fourth of all episodes in all seasons yet I can not see this actress getting credited or listed as uncredited anywhere. I wonder if she was an actual nurse. Does any one know who she was. Yes there also were a couple of other actresses who played a nurse named Carol on one or two episodes and they are listed in the episode guides. She also is the patient with her arm in the cast talking to Dr. Morton in the episode 6:18 Firehouse Quintet.

Answer: On IMDB, actress Anne Schedeen is listed as playing Nurse Carol on six episodes from 1974-76.
