  • The police detective asks Sophia if she remembers an event that happened on September 4th, 1985. After a sarcastic comment, in which she says she doesn't, Dorothy reminds her that she came to live with them on that date due to the Shady Pines fire. However, in the pilot, Dorothy remarks that it's June.[2] Since Sophia comes to live with the ladies in that episode, it stands to reason that the Shady Pines fire was in June, not September.
