Continuity mistake: When Walter is being rescued from the room he was trapped in, through the hole in the wall, we see the outside of the hole and Walter's body is outside except for his legs, and we see the hands trying to pull him back. In the next shot inside the room, Walter is again inside except for his head and arms. It repeats several times. (01:28:30)

Suggested correction: This is incorrect. Walter and Lisa are wearing similar clothes, making it look like he is in both rooms at once. Instead, as he is almost completely in the other room, Lisa is close behind him.
Father Loomis: Why weren't we told the truth?
Professor Edward Birack: Without the technology to confirm? It would have been another legend.
Father Loomis: But he was OUR prisoner, not yours.
