Question: Why did this episode air here and not for the season finale? "Early Edition" was not cancelled until AFTER the season's last episode, episode 22, aired. However this episode is meant to be the season finale (which only ended up being the series finale when the show wasn't renewed). So why/how was it aired out of order? There's one claim, with no documented source, that it was done by accident. Is this true?

Continuity mistake: In episode 3-10, Gary's mother Lois is the victim of fraud. He mistakes his mother as a shooter of the conman. The headline specifically states the shooter is an Illinois woman. However in this episode convicts escape to Gary's hometown of Hickory, Indiana. The episode depicts his parents residing there, as though they have always been there.
