  • Fridge Logic:
    • The plot of "Friendly Fire" starts with Adam and an older detective engaging a burglar in a firefight, and the other cop shooting the thug's partner-in-crime, then pinning the blame for the shooting on Adam when the latter won't go along with his version of what happened. According to the other detective's official report of the incident, Adam grabbed his (other cop's) gun and shot the guy—and during the ensuing inquest to determine Adam's innocence or guilt, the cop's attorneys run with that version of events. The problem is, at no point does Adam's lawyer bring up certain details that would have at least given Adam a shot at proving his innocence—such as the fact that there were no powder-burns from the gun being fired (it was a revolver) on Adam's hands, nor any hint of a forensic report to even suggest that; nor is it ever questioned whether Adam's prints were even on the gun. Adding to this, at no point during the incident do we see Adam handle the other detective's gun at all. So if these points had ever come up during the episode, how would the other cop expect his version of the story to stick? And nobody at any point during the episode even thinks to bring this up, not even Adam himself, a cop of 20 years' experience.
    • How does Malloy not going by anything but her last name even work? Especially when it comes to little things like paying taxes and bills, particularly as co-owner of the bar she runs with Adam. Not to mention, she's certainly bound to not be the only one around with the surname Malloy...
      • On the same topic, how can a couple (like Malloy's parents) not be able to agree on a name for their own child, especially for the first 12 years of her life?
  • Retroactive Recognition: Carrie-Anne Moss and Marcus Chong (both of The Matrix fame, as Trinity and Tank) made appearances as, respectively, a single mother and an ex-gang-banger.
