Continuity mistake: When Summerville stands and walks away, Stephanie tells him his theory does not hold water; her hair suddenly is combed behind her shoulders, as opposed to the front as earlier. And a few cuts later, when she praises the quality of the local heroin, she puts her hands on her hips, but is shown with her arms open in foreground at the cut. (00:52:25)

Continuity mistake: When Detective Summerville asks Stephanie how is Sean's grief, Anna Kendrick's hand keeps changing position at every cut; two fingers under her chin, one, two again and in the same shot lowered to her breast, back under chin again. (00:51:05)

Continuity mistake: In the close-up of Sean's phone when the police calls, the time on the top of the screen is 11 AM. When barely 20 seconds later he is telling Stephanie that he's going to Michigan, the screen of his phone is lit and the time is 2:42. The phone also changed hands in the revealing cut. (00:39:50)

Sammo ★

Continuity mistake: When the phone rings with the call about Emily being found, in close-up the phone is very close to the wicker basket, in the wider shot there's a big distance to allow Henry Golding to put down his glass in between phone and basket. (00:39:50)

Revealing mistake: After the report on the Kia, Sean receives a call from the Warfield police department. Sean is a professor in Connecticut, but his mobile carrier as shown in the close-up of the phone is Rogers, a Canadian company. The film was shot in Ontario. (00:39:50)

Revealing mistake: The protagonist broadcasts the description of Emily's car in her vlog. She then receives a mail from a mom in Michigan...or does she? Seems not, because if you look at the window of the mail open in Safari, she is on the Compose tab, not in the Inbox, with a Send message and format and style buttons at the bottom (and she is not replying to the message because the 'from' field is a "michiganmom381" gmail account. (00:39:20)

Factual error: Detective Summerville tells Sean that his wife got a rental Kia from Budget paying in cash. But Budget does not allow the initial cost to be paid in cash; the payment must come from credit or debit card, cash can be used only as the last payment when you return the car. (00:37:30)

Continuity mistake: When Stephanie sets the bottle in the wine cooler as the detective arrives, the label with the name of the wine in italics faces the camera. When she walks off and when the detective looks at the table with the close-up, the back label is the one facing the camera. (00:37:00)

Other mistake: Bashir Salahuddin appears in the ending credits of the Italian localization as "Detective Summervile" with one L. It's a spelling mistake that appears also on IMDB, so one wonders if the localization team lifted name from the website, or if the theatrical version had the spelling mistake and was fixed afterwards.

Continuity mistake: At the beginning of the scene inside the Dennis Nylon mansion, Emily is wearing her bag on the left shoulder. She sneaks her way inside the "employees only" area, loses her cover (the guy bringing clothes upstairs), still with the bag looking the same, but the moment she enters Emily's office in a rush, she is wearing her bag across the chest, right shoulder strap, bag on the left side. (00:34:00)

Sammo ★

Continuity mistake: Inside Emily's office upstairs, Stephanie ducks under the desk when someone walks by. The floor is fully in the dark, and yet when she crawls to the drawers she tries to pick the lock of, there are distinct sunlit areas all of a sudden. (00:34:15)

Sammo ★

Continuity mistake: Dennis Nylon partially undoes the knot of Stephanie's scarf, which is then for the rest of the scene adjusted in a more aesthetically pleasing way (less straight and flat) despite the fact that neither he nor she had a chance to do so. (00:32:45)

Sammo ★

Continuity mistake: The protagonist just approached Dennis Nylon; he asks her about the vintage scarf. Seen from behind, Stephanie's left hand is on the strap of the bag, but in the reverse angle her hand is down. (00:32:35)

Sammo ★

Continuity mistake: After the talk with the police, Sean says he should call a cab and go home. His hand goes from below to the counter, to above it. Likewise, Stephanie checks her watch without and then with her elbow leaning on it. (00:29:00)

Sammo ★

Continuity mistake: Stephanie and Sean have called the police to file the missing person report. The sergeant to conclude the chat asks him "Not planning any more trips?" In the transition between that shot and the next, the position of his hand changes, putting his pen vertical on the notepad in the second. (00:28:05)

Sammo ★

Continuity mistake: At the end of the incest story, Emily says "I can't wait to see you cook", suddenly waiting for Stephanie's answer with her hand wide open instead of with the fingers curled by her chin. (00:22:55)

Sammo ★

Continuity mistake: Emily says that she can get a bathtub full of perfume to Stephanie, who got quite drunk. As she starts saying that she's sorry about the pictures, she puts on the table her drink using her right hand, but she had just gestured in front of the camera with an open hand in the shot before. In the same scene, the glass jumps back in her hand when Emily asks her "Wanna trade confessions?" (00:18:55)

Sammo ★

Continuity mistake: During the sequence where Emily shows Stephanie how to make a 'real' martini, the lemon on the chopping board is turned differently, appearing also more peeled or less peeled, in the various shots. (00:17:35)

Sammo ★

Continuity mistake: When Stephanie gives the beads to the Emily, Emily's martini switches hands multiple times, and even the height she holds the glass at changes between shots. (00:17:00)

Sammo ★

Continuity mistake: At the park, Stephanie tells Emily "I think you're a supermom", and Emily tells her "Aww no you don't." She has in the second shot both hands joined in front of the crotch as opposed to the earlier position assumed in most of the scene, with the hands in front of her belly. (00:15:25)
