* ArtisticLicenseGeography: The Verrazano Bridge does not have a toll booth going eastbound (out of Staten Island). So the E-Z Pass records would not have shown the Royces' car going into Brooklyn. It would, however, pick up the car as it went through the tunnel into Manhattan.
* HollywoodScience: The autopsy should have shown that Malcolm slipped his children sleeping pills because even with the official cause of death being a gunshot wound, there would still have been an autopsy.
* ItsAllAboutMe: It's all later revealed that Malcolm Royce killed [[VictimOfTheWeek all the victims of this episode]] because of a warped sense of narcissism.
