Other mistake: The hotel manager is charged with negligent homicide because he was using propane without the additive, but the victim was knocked unconscious. The additive wouldn't have made a difference.

Plot hole: The whole scenario is fake and everyone at the bar is an actor, so why would they call the real cops.
Suggested correction: To specifically get the cops involved so Neal feels more in danger. LIVE Corporation basically filed a false police report, which Wendy Colton said the cops can talk to the company's lawyers about.

Death Grip - S2-E4
Plot hole: There is absolutely nothing that would give Horatio any reason to think the severed arm they found was from a previous victim of their suspect. It doesn't make any sense he would pick something as random as the arm that has no connection (other than it being found during the search for the girl) to the case.

Other mistake: While irrigating the alligator's stomach a human foot falls out, there is no way a foot that size could fit through that PVC pipe.

Plot hole: The pool boy's lawyer brings in the woman suing Fell and tells the judge that Sells saw her earlier and didn't recognize her when he should have. There is absolutely no way she could have known that.

Stupidity: Throughout the entire series the CSI's on several occasions will describe, in great detail, the procedure they are doing to another CSI. This makes no sense since they have all been CSI 's for years and should already know how it's done. Obviously this was done for the audience so they could follow along.
Suggested correction: While this is obviously the case, and it's a common script technique, I have worked with several people who will explain in great detail what they're doing (or worse yet explain what I should do) despite the fact I've worked there longer and know more than they do. But to avoid contention at the work place I just let them talk and pretend to listen.

Stupidity: After talking to the bartender, Calleigh goes back the lab and talks to Caine, and he wonders if they got a false positive from the vic's blood alcohol. Calleigh then gives a detailed description of how that could happen; Caine already knows how (obviously this was done for the audience, to explain it, but in the context of the show, it makes no sense).

Other mistake: When Boa Vista and Wolfe find the blotch of red marker ink under the tape from the bat it's a solid big red blotch, they determine it was transfer from the killer's hand. Then they show Cody holding the bat and he only has a small red smear on his hand, not even close to the amount needed to leave that kind of stain on the tape.

Plot hole: Alex determines the actress is only about 18 because her wisdom teeth haven't erupted yet. The problem is they don't always erupt, I'm 32 yrs old and mine have never erupted.

See no Evil - S9-E3
Continuity mistake: In the beginning the kidnapper has a large build, like a football player, but later when he's in the van with the girl his build is much smaller.

Factual error: After Horatio shoots out a window in the lab everyone starts waking up immediately, it would take much longer than one second for the gas to leave that size of a room and the people's systems.

Factual error: There is no way the gun in this episode would work, the bullet world be moving way to fast for the shooter to accurately control the bullet to the target.
