Continuity mistake: When Jake handcuffs himself to Captain Holt, the cuffs around each of their wrists consists of double metal bars connected to a single bar.

When she announces her water has broken while in the interrogation room, she's wearing the purple dress. After returning from commercial break, she's still sitting in the exact same spot but now wearing a burgundy tracksuit and lavender top. (Perhaps she changed clothes because her water broke however, it's highly unlikely since she is sitting in the same place and doesn't look like she's left the room).
Continuity mistake: When Jake is talking to Gina about Charles' Christmas gift situation, a female cop is walking out from the rest area twice in one scene. (00:01:55)
Continuity mistake: Because the show is filmed in L.A, the lack of snow in December is very noticeable.

(00:07:55)

Continuity mistake: When Adrian stamps "denied" onto Boyle's insurance claim form, there's blank spots where there wasn't enough ink on the stamp (which would happen because he had the stamp in his pocket for a while). But then when he says "denied" and holds up the form, "denied" is all filled in fully. Also, the red border is lighter and the location has shifted down.
Continuity mistake: When Charles is talking to Gina in the break room while wearing the mask, he takes it off. When he says she was being sweet, it's back on.
Continuity mistake: The flyers on the top and bottom of the pile Terry is holding keep changing colors.
