MISTAKES/GOOFS
- FACT: The Spanish dialect heard in the episode has the distinctive phonology and verb conjugation of the varieties spoken in northern Mexico and the South-Western United States, including the absent of the so called "Castilian lisp" typical of the standard form in Spain. People in the Valencian autonomous region also speak a Catalan dialect known as Valencian which doesn't appear in the episode.
- FACT: Guardia Civil agents would never identify themselves as "Policía".
- FACT: The Guardia Civil corps only operate in rural areas, not in big cities like Valencia (whose image is far from the "primitive" version seen in the episode, by the way).
- PLOT: How did The Unit members (apart from Jonas, who took a plane) return to the US from Spain in less than a day?
- FACT: The uniforms of the policemen seen in this episode are slightly modified versions of the ones used by the Italian Carabinieri, not the Spanish national or urban police corps.
TRIVIA
- The oceanside railing where Brown talks to the "hippie chick" is at the Port of Los Angeles World Cruise Center (the Vincent Thomas Bridge and the U.S.S. Lane Victory can be seen in the background).
- Jonas uses the code phrase "Prairie Fire", as the signal to escape and evade. This is an actual code phrase used by US Army Special Forces to signal an emergency egress or extraction. It has been used since Vietnam.
