Episode #4.7 - S4-E7

Continuity mistake: At Catherine's, Goodman witnesses the sister of the victim being drunk and disorderly. He leans with his arm on the back of the chair to get a better view, but blatantly in the reverse shot he also raises his hand to rest his chin on it - all gone when we get back to the original angle. (00:20:50)

Episode #4.6 - S4-E6

Plot hole: The killer is able to dupe the victim into hiding at the back of a car promising that they will bring a certain someone on a bench and get them to talk about a very bad thing they've been doing, so the designated victim can record the conversation with their phone. This requires the victim to be outrageously stupid; the car, with a closed trunk the victim is hidden in, is parked at distance from the bench; the microphone of her phone would never record that far, and nobody would believe their own phone can work that way, especially when they can hide the phone in a sports bag by the bench, the bushes, the gaps in the bricks or just demand that their supposed friend carries the phone herself. Also, the killer couldn't be sure that the device wouldn't say something about what they were doing (as often happens before you start a recording; you state the time, place, purpose of the recording, plus all the other content of the phone she didn't have time and chance to review!), but makes no attempt to make the phone disappear.

Episode #4.6 - S4-E6

Continuity mistake: Rewatching the footage of the previous games, Humphrey says that there's another match where the opponents dropped the ball. He is in foreground with his hand on his cheek, but in the close-up of Florence that asks to rewind, Kris Marshall's face is clear. (00:31:35)

Continuity mistake: Florence tells Humphrey poolside that the victim was "stabbed in heart. Death would have been instant." Goodman in this wide shot listens with his hand a bit lowered, placing it just below his chin, but it's in front of his belly in the next shot. (00:09:25)

Episode #4.6 - S4-E6

Continuity mistake: Humphrey and Florence are at the resort, and she just laid down the preliminary forensics reports.
