Corrected entry: During the first trial scene Cutter states that he witnessed Borden simply "watching Mr. Angier drown". It is clear, however, that Cutter witnessed Borden trying to save Angier from drowning as he is seen in the background when Borden is attempting to smash the glass tank.

Corrected entry: The use of Angier and Borden as plants for the water tank trick at the beginning makes no sense; they never wear any kind of disguise (except changing their clothes), so all it would take for the technique of the trick to become known would be for someone to see the show more than once, which would doubtless happen at some point.
Correction: They didn't wear any disguise that time, but that doesn't mean they always do so.

Correction: Borden didn't react immediately when he saw Angier drowning - he was shocked and took a few seconds before reaching for the axe. Cutter might think Borden reacted only after noticing him.
