Notes[]

↑ Roy includes in Simon's birthday card a doubloon that he got from Duke, who got it from his father, Simon. This is an example of a Bootstrap paradox.

Inconsistencies[]

↑ According to the tombstone in "Sins of the Fathers"^[4], Simon was born on April 8^th 1949. On August 16^th 1955, Simon sends Roy a birthday card. Either he's only getting around to mailing off a birthday card months later, or this is a continuity error.
↑ ^2.0 ^2.1 Cogan's birthdate and conception date are a year apart.
↑ The details of this article reference the events of "Fur",^[8], almost 50 years before it happened.^[9] The text of this article is also used as filler in the articles "Ship Breaks Up In Calm Seas"^[10] and "Police Continue Investigation"^[11]

Sources[]

↑ From "Ball and Chain"^[2]. The police report that Nathan reads aloud from is viewable on his computer screen, giving us the precise date that Leidner reported finding the body. The report also says that she died a week later. The other dates are extrapolations from knowing the specifics of how Beatrice Mitchell's Trouble worked. Abby also tells us that she never delivered a baby in the family without the father dying, which tells us that Leidner didn't die until after her child was and she held it.
↑ James Cogan's birthdate comes from the missing persons flyer in "Real Estate"^[6].
↑ From the episode "Roots"^[13]. The dialogue says that it's been "over 50 years".
