Continuity mistake: When Pete and Clark go to Byron's house to find him, Clark finds the hidden locked door to the cellar. Clark then breaks the locks and uses both his hands to pull on the door. Cut to a different angle (from above Clark) but now he is just using his left hand.
Continuity mistake: After Byron transforms, he pushes Pete through the windshield of an old car. The impact causes the front passenger door of the car to open. Yet later when Clark check up on Pete, the front passenger door is now closed.
