It goes beyond credit cards too–MM was a teacher and probably needed to be certified, Archie and Whale were MDs (Archie’s door says MD, not PhD, though he could have both) and probably need to be licensed by a state board of some kind, and Gold was a lawyer who would have to be licensed and registered with the state bar. I don’t know about doctors or teachers, but I know lawyers have to do CLE’s (continuing legal education) credits every year–so does Gold’s name just suddenly appear on records of CLE classes?
And that’s not even going into the issues presented by the Internet (wouldn’t people like Ruby have facebook profiles?), fashion (how do they keep their clothing up-to-date without noticing the passage of time? Do their old clothes magically disappear to be replaced by new ones?), and news events (did they know about 9/11? Do they vote in presidential elections? do they even watch the news?).
Like you, I’m happy to ignore this plot hole, but I would LOVE to hear any explanation that the writers would come up with.
[adrotate group="5"]jessistaParticipantActually, can I pass my turn?
jessistaParticipantS?
jessistaParticipantI’m confused. If the answer isn’t what Hellraiser said, I’d like to guess “L” as part of the correct answer.
jessistaParticipantL?
jessistaParticipantI don’t think he would need a passport to go to NYC, that’s true. I’m just wondering how far his “cover identity” goes. I mean, if Gold is Scottish by birth, does he have naturalization papers somewhere? Would there be INS issues? (how hilarious would that be? “Sir, this says you’re a resident alien from the UK, but you told my colleague you were from Maine.” “I am from Maine, that’s where I live.” “Sir, can you tell me what your city of birth is?” “Um, Glasgow. My father was an American, though, so you might see that on my papers…” “Sir, your papers say you’re from Aberdeen and your father was a kettle salesman. I’m going to need to detain you for a while…”)
Just felt like speculating since we have a 3 week hiatus 👿
jessistaParticipantSarah_TN–I didn’t catch that! Wouldn’t it funny if they were on flight 815 (that was the number, no?).
jessistaParticipantI totally missed this thread when I joined! Can I be keeper of Bae’s cloak and Belle’s Yaoguai book? (Sorry I “claimed” them without asking!)

January 23, 2013 at 10:03 pm in reply to: Raphael Sbarge will answer questions on ONCE podcast! #169773jessistaParticipantOn a less plot-related note, I have the following question:
I love the scenes where we see Archie/Jiminy as a cricket. How do you approach those scenes as an actor? Do you prefer acting “in person” or as a CGI cricket? Do you hate that you don’t get to wear the awesome FTL costumes?
