Errors made by characters (possibly deliberate errors by the filmmakers): In the beginning of the episode Valerie Bertinelli is introduced as "Carol" but at the end of the show, after they win, and Alan notices Dennis is aroused, he says, "It's Valerie's doing".

*** This comment may contain spoilers ***
This episode is a total victory for Jerry Epison as he he gone full circle from threatening Shirley with a knife for not making partner to making partner. It develops this plot really well.
The plot about Mad Cow guest stars Valerie (from TV sitcom One Day At A Time ) as Carol, a cattle farmer who is being told by the government that she can not test all of her cows for mad cow because nobody else in the industry does. A subplot where Denny is bugging the Carl character about being Valerie from One Day At A Time has to be trimmed because of episode length thus creating references which some think are goofs about Denny referring to her as Valerie.
The final season DVD set has the scenes that were edited out for those who are interested in this. The last season seems to have a lot of edgy episodes which makes me think this series went out at the top of its game.
