No Sleep Till Brooklyn

For any of you Beastie fans out there, a shout out to ya.

I was watching one of my many guilty pleasures Gossip Girl last night, and I luckily I Tivoed it, so I could rewind three times to make sure what I heard was correct.

One of the main characters Serena played by the lovely but not talented Blake Lively, said a line where she was referring to a girl named Georgina who said her name was Sara, from "Brookland"
I immediately rewound, asking myself, did she just say Brookland? She did. You can distinctly hear the D at the end. Is it possible that no one heard this but me? No editors, directors, actors?

Now, there was an episode last year where Gossip Girl narrated this: "And as for Blair Waldorf, say uncle. We here she kept in the Bass Family on New Years, but rumor has it Chuck spent some time in Brookland, metaphorically speaking of course. "

This alludes to the one-night stand Chuck Bass had with Vanessa, who is from Brooklyn. How is it possible that Brooklyn and Brookland have been mixed up twice on a NYC-based show?

I need answers, and my research isn't getting them to me fast enough. Is there anyone in the world that heard this? Rewind tonight, and let me know.
