[show]Goof (errors made by characters, possibly deliberate errors by the filmmakers): SPOILER: Nate's birthday in the obituary is September 30, 1965 in episode 27, but January 8, 1965 in episode 61. The right one should be September 30, since in episode "The Room" he himself says to be a Libra. Curiously, the lady in that episode thought he was a Capricorn, which would be right if Nate were born on January 8.
