Goofs
Realistically, there aren't enough hours in the day for everything that occurs in this episode. When the guys leave Hawai'i in the morning the sun is up, the hotel lobby is crowded and there is traffic on the streets indicating that they didn't have an especially early flight. Even if they left at 9AM Hawai'i time with a five hour plus flight time and three hour time difference they wouldn't get in to L.A. until after 5PM. When they arrive, the sun still appears high in the sky, the guys have time to go back and forth to home and Hollywood and Beverly Hills for meetings, and the offices and cafés still appear to be full of midday crowds.

Lloyd's Tears

I've lost track of the number of times I've watched this series in its entirety. I've seriously watched it enough times that I should have all 96 episodes committed to memory. For the first time ever on this episode I realized Lloyd was crying when Ari entered the office after his trip to Geneva. I always knew that Lloyd was upset given the article given the way that Ari had been sneaking around, but I didn't realize just how deeply it affected Lloyd in addition I don't think that Lloyd was crying because he thought Ari would leave him. It's a given at this stage of their careers that wherever Ari goes, Lloyd goes, but I think Lloyd was crying because he wanted to be an agent at that specific location think about it this way that agency is technically as much a product of Lloyd's hard work belief and dedication as it is Ari Lloyd was the very first employee that I took on when he left Terrence so many seasons ago.
