Continuity & Trivia

Super Secret Cypher Snatch is one of those rare episodes with more than one title screen:

(And there are grounds for saying it's full title is
Sepet Sucpre Cncehc Sypare : Super Secret Cypher Snatch ).

When they inventory Jarrett's belongings, they find a comb (high frequency resonators), tie-clip (microphone), wallet (survival kit, K issue), cigarette case (.22 pistol with twin magazines and a self-loader), a pen (Tara suggests it might be a hand-operated short-range grenade but is told it's a dispatch case).
HOWEVER, Tara's notes, which we see as she unrolls the calendar page found inside the pen, read:
Personal possessions
1 comb, 1 wallet, 1 pr cuff links, 1 cigarette case
