Other mistake: When Peyton and Emma are watching a scary movie in Peyton's room, Emma is eating popcorn. However, if you watch her mouth, she isn't actually eating anything (just doing an incredibly bad job of pretending to). (00:34:15)

Factual error: When Marlene goes to the greenhouse and is killed by the falling glass, this would never have happened. It is a federal law that all greenhouses, skylights, and entry-ways are to be made of safety glass. The glass would have to have been made of either a Tempered glass, which breaks in a thousand pieces, like a car window, or Laminated glass, which cracks but does not fall apart, like a car windshield. Neither one of these glasses would have killed her. Surely, law abiding citizens like Clare and her Husband would have followed the zoning laws that came along with building their greenhouse.
Claire: She's Doctor Mott's widow, Michael.
Question: How did Peyton get back in the house at the end without keys?
Answer: She probably had another key made.

Answer: The same way any common criminal gets in to a house, she "broke" in by either kicking the door, or smashing a window, etc. A locked door is not that hard an obstacle to overcome.
