So it means that I have to remember the exact string in series.
Yes indeed there is a letter case problem. The equal and regexp searches ignore case, but the contains search does not. The value is forced to lowercase before the test, so if the test value ("Perry") in your case contains an uppercase letter (which it does) then it will not match.

I will fix it in some upcoming release. The work-around is to enter lowercase letters into the search box ("perry" instead of "Perry")
