Natalie Luca (No. 184) - S4-E12

Audio problem: At the end of the episode when Reddington goes to see Natalie Luca (behind glass), he tells her that the woman she killed at the massage parlour was an associate of his. When Natalie says "She said if I didn't kill him, she would tell Hawthorne where to find us", her lips don't match what she's saying in the reflection of the glass.

Season 4 generally

Audio problem: The mechanical Simplex door locks make electronic bleeping noises when the buttons are pressed. As these are mechanical locks with no electronic components, the most you should hear is a click as each button is pressed.

The Final Chapter - S1-E1

Audio problem: When Ilonka is speaking with her father about going to Brightcliff Hospice, in a shot where the camera is behind her, she says "Lots of foster kids. I mean, kids on their own" and the line appears to sync with her mouth perfectly. But immediately after finishing that line, she starts saying "It's a place for teenagers to transition on their own terms", and her mouth doesn't appear to sync up with the audio at all. (00:12:50)

The Green Mill Murder - S1-E3

Audio problem: When Miss Fisher is interrogating Stone and asks him "What's the matter Mr. Stone..." he's gulping down his liquor. She finishes the sentence ("cat got your tongue?") in a separate shot, and the sound of him just putting down the glass is heard. But if you look at the little bit of him that is poking in the foreground, he's puffing smoke instead. Kinda hard to do that with a mouthful of whiskey. (00:31:40)
