Mistakes/Goofs

Goof (continuity error): When the gang is sitting at the bar in the beginning, Barney is wearing a gray suit when he leaves the bar with Nora. A minute later, he and Nora return because Nora forgot her raincoat. Barney then has on a much darker colored suit.
Goof (continuity error): In this episode Nora and Barney are on the balcony of Barney's apartment. A camera shot shows the inside of Barney's apartment but his giant TV is nowhere to be seen.
