Continuity mistake: When Devon's mom tells him she wants to talk to him about Jake, you can see him put down his pen. It's back in his hand immediately in the next shot.
Continuity mistake: When Jake hands Chucky the knife, the direction the sharp side is facing switches between cuts. First it pointed towards Jake, then away from him.
Continuity mistake: When Jake is contemplating killing Lexi with the gardening machete, at one point he lifts it up so it's about parallel to his head. Immediately in the next shot it's down by his shoulder and he lifts it a second time.
Continuity mistake: Jake goes from having his backpack straps over both shoulders to only one between cuts as he talks to Devon at the beginning of the episode.
Continuity mistake: When Devon's mum is talking to Miss Fairchild, after Miss Fairchild explains that she's not comfortable talking about Jake, she goes from having both hands on her desk to only having one on her desk between cuts.
Continuity mistake: When Chucky shows Jake his hands and tells him that it's hard to strangle people with them, he puts them back behind his head. But the way the scene is cut, it doesn't quite work. He's still getting his hands into position as the shot cuts, whereas in the next shot, they're instantly in position and totally still.

Audio problem: When Devon's mom is interrogating Jake, when Jake says "And then we'll be done?", his mouth movements don't match the words in the slightest. (It looks more like he's saying "I don't know.").

Revealing mistake: When Lexy falls through the railing, there's a few shots where you can tell she's been replaced by a (probably adult) stunt double. She suddenly seems quite a bit taller, and noticeably has more muscle tone in her legs.

Continuity mistake: When Jake and Lexy are exploring the burned-down house, at one point, Jake turns about 180 degrees instantly between shots. (It's shortly after they go into the room that's incredibly damaged and Lexy says "Oh my god.").

Revealing mistake: During the flashback, when Charles shows the kids the body of the janitor, in the first close-up of the Janitor's face, you can see a pulse in his neck. (The next time you see his neck, you can also see a slight pulse, albeit, it's much, MUCH subtler in this shot.)

Deliberate mistake: When Devon does an internet search for Chucky, pictures of Tiffany and Nica pop up. But they're still-shots from "Bride of Chucky" and "Cult of Chucky." It makes no sense that they'd be in an internet search - nobody could have taken those photos.

Other mistake: When Jake and Lexy depart the hospital, she's wearing a blue shirt and pants. When they get to her house, she's suddenly wearing a white shirt, denim jacket, and a skirt. But the indication is that they went directly to her house from the hospital, so where'd she get the change of clothes from?

Answer: They were blamed for the death of Jake's foster brother, which was deemed a terrible accident, and they were sent to the reform school as a punishment. Presumably, when they had to leave the reform school given what happened, they were instead given community service as punishment.
