Apologies if it has already been brought up, but where is Faye's IV? Shouldn't she at the very least have a bandage on her hand (or some kind of puncture wound) if it's been removed?
Is it cold in here?:

All long-running series contain this sort of thing <snip>

Another good point. We do go overboard trying to fit funny absurd things into world-building.
(But it's so much fun ...)

Ah, alright. I remember that incident, but I didn't remember that part of it.

If she's been there a number of hours, and she was deemed sufficiently hydrated by the hospital and didn't require any more meds, then it would presumably have been removed. If it was a few hours back that it was removed, the mark would likely be hardly noticeable by now.

See the Larry Niven "Ringworld" and "Known Space" stories for an example of this taken to extremes. The later attempts to wrap up Asimov's stories into a unified whole are pretty bad as well.
God, it's amazing the things you read if you spend enough time in airports, hotels and in the middle of nowhere...
Conan Doyle had it right. There are some major continuity errors in the Sherlock Holmes stories, and he didn't care at all.

We have no idea how long Faye has been in hospital, Marten looks a little frazzled so it must at least be overnight. Once the doctors were satisfied with Faye's condition, they might have removed the IV while she slept.
Bear in mind as well that this is a setting with AnthroPCs, AI with rights and several other highly advanced pieces of technology as everyday life. Wouldn't surprise me if the hospitals had some sort of dermal spray bandages.
