Goofs
In the first scene in the lounge of Captain Ned Larkin, the pendulum of the glass-fronted grandfather clock is seen to be stationary. In the second scene in his lounge, the pendulum is missing from the clock altogether, only to return in the third scene set there, where it is once again stationary. (Since scenes in film and TV shows are shot out of sequence, it's common practice for clocks on set to be stopped, rather than have the clock's hands jump back and forth.)
