Factual errors

Nobody would ever use a lighter to heat a glass of cognac. The glasses are that shape so they can be held like a bowl and the heat of the hand warms the drink, a lighter on a small area would do nothing good; but it could easily shatter the crystal glass.
While observing La Grenouille's plane, McGee states takeoff time as 24:00 (twenty-four hundred). There is no 24 o'clock, it's midnight and that's 00:00.

Miscellaneous

Character error

In this episode, the character Rene/La Grenouille states that the Cognac "L'Esprit de Courvoisier" was first drunk by Napoleon at his coronation in 1802. Napoleon Bonaparte's coronation was in 1804.
