Goofs[]
- After her friend's "suicide," Jessica tells his lawyer that—despite all the time she's mentioned them in her books—that she has no idea what an executor does. This is a major goof, as in 'Benedict Arnold Slipped Here," she served as the executor for the estate of elderly recluse Tilly Adams.
- An aerial overview of Central Park before the softball game shows trees in full autumn color; however, the game itself is played against a background of very (and only) green trees.
- Toward the end of the final reveal scene, Lori and Jessica both mistakenly refer to Edward as 'Graham'.
