Lazarus - S1-E15

Continuity mistake: During the Re-qualification practice shoot scene Dupre as agent Willis fires until he suffers a failure-to-eject stoppage (stovepipe), despite staring at the ejection port throughout the preceding drill he fails to recognise and clear this (as any firearm user would, especially a bank robber with the partial memories of an FBI agent/instructor), and could potentially still have rounds in the magazine. At the next camera change the slide is fully back despite no manipulation from Dupre, as he removes an empty magazine. (00:19:01)

Paper Clip (3) - S3-E2

Visible crew/equipment: When Mulder and Scully enter the abandoned mine through a doorway, the viewer can see at right in the distance a number of people sitting on a wall, and one crouching in front of the wall with what looks like a dog. They are sitting still, but there is still movement there. (00:16:00)
