Continuity mistake: Dr. King announces Emily's death. The lawyer supports the archaeologist who is fainting, but does so being in different positions between shots. Even the local who faces away from them is standing in a different position - in fact this particular mistake keeps repeating, with the guy's left arm all the way down the side in some shots and his hand on the waist in the closer angles.

Appointment With Death (1988)
Continuity mistake: The Boynton kids are crowding the mother preparing her according to her instructions. Ginny reluctantly goes to bed, Nadine brings her the medicine, and Raymond walks around her to get to the other side; the shadows in these two shots are different, as shown by the tent's peg, in the shade first, in the sun a second later.

Appointment With Death (1988)
Continuity mistake: Sightseeing in Jerusalem, Nadine is reconciling with her husband and tells him to smile. Behind her, Dr. King reads a book and turns right to left. Three women walk in frame from the left. The camera cuts away, and next time we see Nadine there's a blatant repetition of the same movements; again King's half-turn and the two extras that walk into frame same as before. (00:30:15)

Continuity mistake: When Castle's mom says she's 1/4 responsible for Alexis' genes, the glass in front of her has merely a few drops left in it. When Castle leaves and she calls him "flatfoot", the glass is still mostly empty but there's about twice as much wine left. (00:10:30)
