Undisclosed - S2-E7

Continuity mistake: Agents follow the suspect after the shooting in an apartment. They chase him upstairs and out of the door but are still at street level.

Consequences - S6-E12

Continuity mistake: In the opening scene, a victim is being chased through a wooded area with his hands tied behind his back with duct tape and duct tape over his mouth. He hides briefly behind a wall and emerges with his hands free and no duct tape on his mouth.

Unforeseen - S6-E6

Continuity mistake: Maggie chases and isolates one of the terrorists holding a cylinder of toxic gas. The terrorist pulls down his gas mask to speak to Maggie, but in the following few scenes, the mask moves from below his chin to all the way back in place.

All the Rage - S6-E1

Continuity mistake: The team is moving into an industrial space where they believe the perpetrator is hiding. There is a generator outside with a red power cord leading under the door they are about to breach. When they burst through the door, the cord is no longer there but it can be seen a few seconds later, but now it is black.

God Complex - S5-E23

Continuity mistake: The chase scene when Maggie, Tiff, and A are chasing the suspect is a total mess. Maggie radios in to say "he ran down the subway", but he doesn't and they pursue him in the streets. Almost immediately, the suspect hijacks a car three blocks away. They locate him in Queens, but now it's night and raining. However, when the chase began, it was bright daylight and clear. Maggie chases him into a crypt, and in the last scene, daylight is shining through a window.

Love Is Blind - S5-E2

Continuity mistake: Early in the episode in the aftermath of the shooting in the pawn shop in which the two glass doors have been shattered and all glass has fallen, there are scenes with large sections of broken glass in the doors.

Fostered - S4-E10

Continuity mistake: The chase scene toward the end of the episode is a mess. Toward the end of the episode, Scola runs through a door twice while chasing the suspect and, just a few scenes later, Tiff, while chasing another suspect approaches another door twice before she enters.

Fire and Rain - S4-E8

Continuity mistake: Toward the end of the show Scola and the brother of the principle terrorist emerge from the building containing the now disabled bomb. The brother and Scola exchange a few words and the brother walks away. After a very quick camera change the next shot shows the brother far away from Scola, much too far for him to have walked given the shortcut away.

Discord - S3-E7

Continuity mistake: The scenes of OA and Maggie chasing McGowan are a mess. The distances between the agents and the perp vary greatly from moment to moment and OA is going over the same fence twice.

Uncovered - S3-E6

Continuity mistake: The two FBI agents are searching for the wounded perp and track him to a veterinarian's-the woman working in the office is ordered to the ground and lays down in front of office chairs very close to large animal cages by her head. In the next scene when she is ordered to her feet, the cages are nowhere near her.

Prey - S1-E3

Continuity mistake: Halley has several abrasions and cuts on her face and lip. The next time she is shown her lip is healed perfectly but all of the other abrasions and cuts are still visible. (00:10:00 - 00:23:00)

Snag.1

Outsider - S2-E6

Plot hole: The FBI is looking for a "very tall" guy who has been identified as such by various witnesses and by their own expert due to the entry angle of a fatal bullet wound - 6'5" at least. They send Elena into a bar near the end of the show to meet the Albanian perp who when he arrives is barely average height.

Exposed - S1-E14

Question: The FBI were able to trace 2 payments from Donovan to Cutler's account for the killings, but apparently they aren't able to trace the payment to Cutler for the job he did on Maggie's husband? It's been several seasons now, so I would think if they were going to provide Maggie some closure it would've already happened?
