I just got done watching "A Friend in Need" and notice a couple of inconsistencies in continuity.

1. Blair's mother comes in. Unlike Prototype Monica, this Monica looks nothing like Blair. Tootie acts like she has never seen Blair's mother before despite the fact that she saw Blair and her mother two years earlier and saw Blair's mother kissing Nina's dad Jason. Perhaps Tootie was as shocked as I was at seeing a completely different Blair's mother. This Monica must have been Blair's father's second or third wife and he only marries women named Monica.

2. Cousin Geri is not from Blair's mother's side of the family as opposed to Blair's father's side just a year earlier. Geri is the daughter of Monica #2's sister in this episode. Cousin Geri is not a major part of the plot in this episode and is soon Nancy Oed and wallpapered over for now.

I know this change always bothered Geri, in real life. She went from being Geri Warner to being Geri Tyler without explanation. And when she objected, the producers didn't fix it.

Is that in Geri's autobiography?

Yes. She said it felt like a kind of rejection.
