Corrected entry: When rescuing the children on Olaf's boat, Mr. Poe finally tells Count Olaf that he would not inherit the Baudelaire's fortune if anything were to happen to them, as only "blood relatives and married couples" would, initiating Olaf's plot to marry Violet. But at the beginning of the movie, while Poe is bringing the children to Count Olaf for the first time, he tells them that Olaf is their closest relative ("either your third cousin four times removed or your fourth cousin three times removed").

Buffy The Vampire Slayer (1997)
Corrected entry: In 3-6 "Band Candy", Buffy finds a monster and the babies that had been kidnapped in the sewers, simply, it would seem, by going underground, as if Sunnydale's sewer network was small enough for such a feat. However in this episode, when Buffy and Xander are looking for the 3 priests in the episode “Amends”, they get information from Willy the snitch that they may live underground. Xander says "We know 'underground', that's a start," to which Buffy disdainfully replies: "Sure! In a town with 14 million square miles of sewer". Even assuming she's speaking figuratively, there's no reason it's easy to find someone the first time but not the second.
Correction: In the first instance there are missing babies and a monster that must be stopped which she knows to be in the sewers. She had no choice but to go down there.She merely got lucky and stumbled upon them relatively quickly. In the second instance there is only the suggestion that their targets MIGHT be in the sewers. Naturally, Buffy is much more hesitant to try her luck a second time with what may turn out to be a pointless effort anyway.

Correction: By "closest" living relative, Mr Poe means that Count Olaf is their closest relative geographically (Klaus points this out - "I don't think that's what 'closest' is supposed to mean" - and the book confirms this). The Baudelaires could have another relative who is closer to them on their family tree, meaning that they would be the ones in line to inherit the fortune instead of Olaf.
