Captive Hearts - S1-E5

Other mistake: When Xavier is in the War Room with the rest of the team showing where the closest he could pinpoint Cyclops and Jean's location is, he is sitting in one of the chairs positioned around the table. Xavier is paraplegic and usually sits in his own hover chair. While there's no reason he couldn't be sitting in a regular chair, it would be very impractical for him to do so, especially if he's just instructing his team where they need to go. (00:11:07)

Gliding Over All - S5-E8

Factual error: When going over the logistics of the plan to kill the ten men in prison, Jack tells Walt that killing Osama Bin Laden was less complicated. Breaking Bad takes place over a period of two years, beginning with Walt's birthday in 2008, and ending on his birthday in 2010. Bin Laden wasn't killed until May of 2011. (00:15:23)

Dead Freight - S5-E5

Question: How did the train conductors not hear the water pump Walt was using to pump water into the tanker? They were only around 800 feet away in open land, so it should have been audible.

Phaneron

Answer: For one thing the engine running the pump isn't that loud. The characters have conversations at a normal volume without having to scream at each other. Even if the conductors could hear it, there is no reason they should care or be suspicious. It just sounds like an engine running in the distance and they don't care enough to look for what is making the noise. At that very moment there is also a kid riding a dirt bike in the area. Engine noises are a very common thing.

Captive Hearts - S1-E5

Continuity mistake: When Cyclops and Jean are approaching the newspaper kiosk, its opening is facing the sidewalk. When the shot changes to them walking past it, the opening has been replaced by a wall with newspaper clippings and a painting on it. Moments later, they are approaching the same kiosk, after he tells her that his mind is on nothing but her. (00:05:13)

Inhumans Saga: Part 2: The Inhumans Among Us - S2-E3

Continuity mistake: When Medusa is stealing the wallet from the man in Paris, when the man is first shown, he is clean-shaven, has brown eyebrows, and has no handkerchief in his breast pocket. When he is shown from behind, the back pockets of his pants are shaped like a shield. When the shot changes to Medusa stealing his wallet, his pockets are small rectangles. When he is shown from the front again, he now has black eyebrows, a moustache, and a purple handkerchief. (00:06:24)
