...and the Bag's in the River - S1-E3

Continuity mistake: When we see the basement while Krazy-8 is alive, we can see that there is no light coming in from outside or any windows. When Jesse returns and goes to the basement all of a sudden there is loads of daylight streaming into the basement. (00:42:10)

Buried - S5-E10

Continuity mistake: When Todd is walking Lydia through the bodies, in one shot they are next to one body. Camera cuts to an aerial view and they are a good 1-2m further back. (00:39:20)

Problem Dog - S4-E7

Continuity mistake: When Jesse is emptying the cigarette, his fingers are right at the end of the cigarette. Camera cuts and now they are up the other end. (00:19:20)

Box Cutter - S4-E1

Continuity mistake: During the diner scene when Jesse is eating, Walt asks him how he's doing. Jesse's head changes positions several times between shots. From looking out of the window, to back down at his plate, to back out of the window, to straight ahead again, all between shots.

Quantom X

Cornered - S4-E6

Continuity mistake: At the start, the hijackers use a UV light to find the stamp that indicates which bucket of sauce has meth in them. However, the stamp shines yellow, while in a previous episode it's shown shining blue. (00:06:20)

4 Days Out - S2-E9

Revealing mistake: There are no water cooling tubes attached to the reflux condensers. Reflux condensers do not condense without cooling. (00:15:40)

One Minute - S3-E7

Other mistake: At the end, we see the gunfight between Tuco's cousins and Hank. Several shots are fired, cars smash into each other, a woman runs off screaming. So not a "quiet" attack. However, as the camera zooms out to show the carnage, 2 people who are not involved in the attack, are just stood talking in the car park. A bit odd since there has been a very clear shoot out. (00:44:50)

Suggested correction: Nobody is actually standing in the car park. People are standing around on the sidewalks talking to each other about what was going on, keeping their distance. Personally I would keep a bigger distance, but whatever distance they feel safe with.

As the camera pans out you can see some people only a couple of cars away.

Ssiscool

All I see are bystanders at a safe distance. At least from a distance they don't know where the actual shooting took place. It looks perfectly reasonable to me for the situation.

Seven Thirty-Seven - S2-E1

Continuity mistake: At the end of the episode when Walt and Jesse are leaving the junkyard, the camera pans to Tuco and Ganzo watching them drive away. However, this is at the same time Ganzo is moving No Doze's body and is subsequently crushed by a car.

Cornered - S4-E6

Walter White: Who are you talking to right now? Who is it you think you see? Do you know how much I make a year? I mean, even if I told you, you wouldn't believe it. Do you know what would happen if I suddenly decided to stop going into work? A business big enough that it could be listed on the NASDAQ goes belly up. Disappears. It ceases to exist, without me. No, you don't know who you're talking to, so let me clue you in. I am not in danger, Skyler. I AM the danger. A guy opens his door and gets shot, and you think that of me? No! I am the one who knocks!

Caballo sin Nombre - S3-E2

Trivia: There is a scene in this episode where Walter angrily tosses a box of pizza in the air in such a way that the pizza exits the box and lands on his roof. Before filming this scene, the crew had wondered how many takes would be required to achieve the desired result. Bryan Cranston nailed it on the first try.

Caballo sin Nombre - S3-E2

Question: When Saul buys Jesse's house from his parents, he said that he showed their lawyer, Mr. Gardner, "all the pertinent financials", meaning $875,000 in cash available to buy the house. Jesse only had $450,000 and that money was not in any account. How did Saul show Mr. Gardner that he had $875,000 in cash?

dweezel7

Answer: Saul is a criminal himself. It's not past his capabilities to forge some documents to show the 857k is available.

Ssiscool

Forged documents by Saul is most likely the correct answer.

The_Iceman

Answer: Saul has a stash of cash himself, hidden in his office. It's possible he used some of that instead as part of the scheme instead of having to go through the effort of falsifying documents.

Phaneron

Answer: In all likelihood, he sold some more meth.

Captain Defenestrator

At the time, they were not producing enough Meth to get that much money in the time frame of the events.
