Clair's Case - S1-E19

Continuity mistake: The amount of water in Clair's cup changes a couple of times, most noticeably after Cliff tells her what she is eating, she takes a drink and the cup is about 1/3 full. She gets up to go find Theo, and now there is very little water in the glass.

Slumber Party - S1-E22
