The Healer - S7-E4
Continuity mistake: After the chat with the nephew of the victim, Jack is back at the police station and he rhetorically asks if the others managed to solve the case while he was away. Dwayne answers from his desk "Sorry Chief, not quite", being in a different position in close-up than in the wider shot. (00:24:55)
19th Mar 2020
The Healer - S7-E4
Continuity mistake: After making an excuse with Darlene, Dwayne tells JP the rule one of the datebook. Tobi Bakare has entirely different posture and facial expression even with Dwayne's statement in continuity between shots. (00:15:50)
19th Mar 2020
The Healer - S7-E4
Continuity mistake: In the initial meeting with the suspects, Jack refers to Steadman King 's activity as "the faith-healing malarkey." He is making a gesture pointing at the pastor, but midway through it there's a cut and his hand in the foreground is firmly planted into his pants' pocket instead. (00:08:15)
19th Mar 2020
The Healer - S7-E4
Continuity mistake: Inspecting the body, Jack and Dwayne crouch by the victim. Dwayne repeats the action in the close-up, and his right hand is turned a different way between shots. (00:06:30)
19th Mar 2020
Continuity mistake: When Jack realises the obvious and waves the calling card around, he's holding it in a different way between shots, with the thumb in the upper corner as he shouts "I know who Otis Falconer is." (00:41:25)
19th Mar 2020
Continuity mistake: After the chat with Gilly White taking out of the trash, Jack picks a bottle to show it to Florence; he holds the bottle by upper or lower part of its neck, depending on the camera angle. (00:12:20)
19th Mar 2020
Continuity mistake: When Florence reads the morning note left by the victim, in close-up she's holding it in a different way than in the following view; from one hand it goes to both hands, and the Bic pen in the second shot passes between index and middle, not the case in close-up. (00:06:35)
19th Mar 2020
Continuity mistake: On the beach after identifying the murder weapon as a knife, Jack walks off and says that there are 1,000 ways to kill a man. Officer Dwayne Myers is holding the camera at belt level and with both hands, but in the next close-up on Ardal O'Hanlon he's in the background with the arm down his side, the camera reaching the knee. (00:06:00)
19th Mar 2020
Continuity mistake: Officer Dwayne Myers pulls the shades from the sock; he is holding them in a different way between shot and reverse (fingers on the lens vs fingers on the hinge). (00:12:00)
19th Mar 2020
Character mistake: Dwayne tells Jack on the crime scene that the victim (who had two aces, with one ace on the board) he had "three of a kind or as the pros say, trips." Pros don't say "trips" to that though, since "trips" happens when two cards matching one you have in hand are on the table. Holding the pair makes it a "set." (00:06:25)
19th Mar 2020
Plot hole: The murder as described makes kinda sense (it's a device used in other works of fiction), but not at all as shown; the person hiding in the bathroom closes the door to the point of making it click, and opens it also with a click. Even panicked, the other person in the room is going to hear the sound of a lock right behind him. The door should have been closed only partially. Moreover, the bathroom door is right by the front door closed just by the door chain, and Philip Marston had the door unlocked and with just the chain to break; the bathroom door was fully in his view the whole time.
19th Mar 2020
Other mistake: The text message used as ploy to cover up the murder was sent at 17:44, but during the flashback showing the killer setting up the murder scene, a wristwatch on the vanity is at about 10 o'clock. (00:44:25)
19th Mar 2020
Continuity mistake: After the obligatory ultimatum visit by the Commissioner, Jack asks Florence for good news. When she chirps that she -really - found something, her hands drop in the close-up, but are holding the headphones steady and up in the next shot. (00:32:25)
19th Mar 2020
The End Is the Beginning - S1-E3
Continuity mistake: In her quarters Soji tells Narek "If you had asked me 5 minutes" etc.; her mundane-looking special necklace pops out of her shirt's collar on her right. After a brief reverse shot when she does move her neck, her necklace is all the way in front of her collar on the left. (00:36:05)
19th Mar 2020
The End Is the Beginning - S1-E3
Continuity mistake: After the action scene at Chateau Picard, we see Soji talking with Ramdha. Ramdha is placing the romulan tarots in configurations not coherent between shots; for instance when Soji says "the pixmit, how do they work?" there's a space she'd wedge the card in, but in the overhead close-up she is putting it to the side of two cards. (00:31:00)
19th Mar 2020
The End Is the Beginning - S1-E3
Continuity mistake: When Commodore Oh appears in an odd Men In Black cosplay to Dr. Agnes Jurati in Okinawa, Agnes removes her earplugs and lowers her arms, but in the next shot she is still shown with her right hand raised. (00:16:15)
19th Mar 2020
Remembrance - S1-E1
Continuity mistake: Laris is fixing Picard's tie. In the background a technician from the TV crew passes in front of Zhaban. New shot, with Picard unironically saying "A la guillotine, alors", and the man is passing in front of the Romulan again. (00:11:10)
19th Mar 2020
Continuity mistake: Rupert is checking his hair in the mirror before leaving for the scheduled call and the taping. He says his last words to Jerry; notice how the poor man has his jaw fully taped up. When Masha frees his mouth later, she has merely to remove a single piece of tape. You may assume that she did it off-camera at some point while she was preparing dinner; even in that case, it does not explain why in that aforementioned shot Jerry was fully taped down to his knees but had the ankles free, but when he makes his escape slapping her and when he is in front of the TV store at the end of the movie he is removing tape specifically placed around both ankles. She could have reason to remove some of the tape in advance but not to randomly tape parts of him left outside of the duct tape cocoon. (01:16:05 - 01:34:40)
19th Mar 2020
Plot hole: Some part of the dialogue between Jean-Luc Picard and Admiral Kirsten Clancy must have been left on the editing room floor, because when Commodore Oh refers to the conversation the two had, says that "He referred to Zhat Vash by name." He did not. (00:21:30 - 00:37:30)
19th Mar 2020
Continuity mistake: FBI Inspector Gerrity introduces himself to "the King", he asks the obvious question "What is your name." The agent on the left of the frame has his arms behind his back, but in the next shot they are crossed in front of his belly. (01:26:30)
