Continuity mistake: When Valentine is in the limousine with Mortimer and Randolph, he has a bunch of cigars in his left hand. The position of those cigars change from shot-to-shot.

Factual error: When Judith wakes up chained to the engine block she notices the Sony camera on a pole. The guys are presumably watching her through that camera. The problem is that there are no cables running from that camera to provide the video feed to the TV. Sony cameras always have the video output connections on the front right hand side. There are no cables attached to this camera. (00:35:40)

Revealing mistake: Judith put 2 minutes and 30 second on the timer. The conversation between her and J.D. and Wayne was continuous. Their conversation until she beats Wayne in arm wrestling took 1 minute and 22 seconds. At this time we hear the timer go off and she says that time is up. There should still be 1 minute and 8 seconds before the timer goes off. (00:21:25)

Continuity mistake: When Judith flips over in J.D.'s chair she landed on her back. The nachos and salsa on the tray had already landed on the ground prior to her rolling off of the cushion. She rolled off the cushion onto her back. There should not have been any salsa on the front of her shirt. (00:16:45)

Audio problem: When Diamonds in the Rough are playing there is a point in the song where the guitars a strummed quickly and then abruptly stopped. The sound of the strumming stops and Wayne stops strumming, but J.D. is still strumming. We should hear his continued strumming but do not. (00:06:55)

He had also fallen half the way down on the closer up shot before they moved to the wide shot. In the wide shot he was back to being more upright and falling. (00:42:40)
