Philip comes home announcing he brought a pizza and that he asked them to add extra pineapple, anchovies and pickles. But the pizza he's eating with Sam in the next shot has nothing but tomato and cheese on it.
Philip is joking about the toppings. Many people don't like anchovies, and pizza places usually don't have pickles as an option. He tried to think of a flavor combination that Paige would find disgusting.

With the exception of Venter's, all the South African accents throughout the series are uniformly terrible. They sound nothing like the real thing.
The ANC contact mispronounces the South African surname "Venter", giving it a hard "V" the way the rest of the characters do. That makes no sense. If he was really from South Africa, he'd know the correct pronunciation - with a soft "F" sound - and automatically use it.
When Matthew is visiting Stan he picks up and quickly glances at a book on the kitchen table. The book is "Politika", the first book in Tom Clancy's Power Play Series. This book was not released until 1997, 14 years in the future.
When Beeman is making dinner his son fiddles with a novel in the table. The cover says Tom Clancy's Power Plays. This novel series started in 1997 while the show is set in the early 1980s.
During the ambush scene in front of diner, modern vehicles can be seen in the background. The school bus is built on Chevrolet Express or GMC Savana, which entered into production in 1996. Oldsmobile Omega shown in this episode is 1983, which is one year later than the story. The orange heavy duty truck is Freightliner Business Class M2 (introduced in 2001). While Elizabeth was waiting inside the van and seeing another van entering the alley, a couple of cars, including red Honda Civic, seen behind the orange Freightliner are from 2000s.
