1 plot hole - chronological order

(1 vote)

Plot hole: Derek, who escaped the mental hospital by pretending to be his twin brother Tyler, was able to locate Tyler's vehicle by using the keys to beep its horn. Once inside the SUV, he apparently found Tyler's cell phone, which is odd because most people carry their cell phones with them. But Derek did not ask Tyler for his cell phone's password before rendering him unconscious - so how did he gain access to the cell phone without the password? (It isn't likely that Tyler previously gave it to him). (00:20:40)

Suggested correction: Tyler never left his cell phone in the car. He had with him when visiting Derek. We see him pull out his cell phone to show Derek a picture, so the phone was already unlocked, assuming he locks it with a password in the first place.

I haven't had time to finish posting the rest of the mistakes I have, but I just uploaded two that should show up under "pending submissions." They probably should have been posted before the one above. I suppose the real question is where the cell phone came from each time.

KeyZOid

The cell phones came from their pockets. None of my pants show an outline of my phone in my pocket.

What about the pat-down?

KeyZOid

He was checking for weapons, not phones.

Other mistake: Derek changed into Tyler's clothes to escape the hospital and take on Tyler's identity. However, it does not look like he remembered to put his blue hospital ID band onto Tyler's right wrist. Hospital bands are usually securely on and not easily removed (or removable without breaking them). When the nurse was removing Derek's (actually, Tyler's) wrist restraints, there was no blue hospital ID band on his right wrist. He asked, "How do I prove to you who I really am?" (No ID band!).
