Boots on the bed and a cigar in the hospital. Stupid Frankie telling them how to fix brakes on a car. Stupid storytelling. Worse for me that Frankie telling them how to fix brakes on a car is that they actually listen to him instead of BA! BA knows all about how to fix every part of every car!

Captain Josh Curtis. Never mentioned before and history is rewritten. Yep, another reason I don't really like the trilogy, even though it has some great moments.

Face's leather jacket is back. He wore that baby all season 1. Murdock says Face is as mechanically inclined as a cage full of hamsters. I never thought that in four seasons before... Face seemed as mechanical as all of them whenever they built anything. It's never been a problem before. Agreed....it's not like Face just sat there and watched the others do all the montage scenes before (even if he does sometimes want to get out of work....).

If Hannibal is a Colonel, how did Colonel Morrison give him orders. Can a Colonel give a Colonel orders? I think Hannibal is only a Lieutenant Colonel.

He's called Colonel by Stockwell in just this episode. I can understand the team abbreviating, but I don't think all military professionals would, and when has he ever been referred to as anything other than Colonel? Would military professionals abbreviate it, too?

I do think it is an inconsistency and I think other than the one episode where Decker says that, nowhere else is it implied that Hannibal is a Lt. Colonel. Maybe Decker just wanted to bring Hannibal down a peg or something. Or more likely it is just inconsistent canon. So probably the main show writers consider Hannibal to be a full Colonel.
I don't know if I've ever really thought of why Hannibal had to follow orders of another Colonel, though. Are there other ranks within being a Colonel, like how there are 3-star, 4-star, and 5-star Generals? (I assume a 5-star General outranks a 3-star General.) Is there such a thing as a 1-star General or a 2-star General?

Just like any organization, there is a hierarchy.
