Obstruction of Justice - S4-E9
Continuity mistake: When Jeanie is in the office with Kerry, Anspaugh, and the union rep discussing her firing, her stethoscope changes position over her name tag several times within a few seconds.
Do You See What I See? - S4-E10
Continuity mistake: After Dr. West leaves Anspaugh's office, the next shot shows both Kerry's hand and stethoscope have changed position. Also, the throw which had been fully visible behind her, is now only visible on the right side.
Do You See What I See? - S4-E10
Continuity mistake: When Carter enters the hospital with the patient Lenny, he suddenly has latex gloves on, when just a second before, when the scene was outside, he had no gloves on. There just wouldn't have been time for him to get them on.
Do You See What I See? - S4-E10
Continuity mistake: Within the space of what would appear to be more than 5 minutes in the ER, considering the continuous flow of action (starting with Kerry offering to get Pablo a taxi and ending with Dr. West examining the patient Lenny) the clock goes from 10:30 to 6:20. Shortly after that Dr. West pronounces Lenny dead, saying 13:38 (or 1:38).
Do You See What I See? - S4-E10
Continuity mistake: Even though Carter and Henry were outside in the snow when the patient Lenny arrived, and they had quite a bit of snow in their hair, when the shot goes to them entering the building, we don't see any snow on Carter and Henry - but there is still lots on the patient and the paramedics.
Do You See What I See? - S4-E10
Continuity mistake: The paramedics bring Lenny by ambulance and are taking him out of the back of it - Carter picks up the chart from the gurney as the paramedic describes the patient - but suddenly the chart is back on the gurney - we should have seen Carter do this but we don't.
Continuity mistake: When Anna is holding the "virtual pet" after realising it has died, in the shots from the front she is holding it in both hands, but from the back it's only in her right hand. It's tricky to see because there is a pile of papers in the way, but her left hand is folded in front of her in the shots from behind.
Continuity mistake: Lizzie puts two cans of soft drink on the table in front of Peter - but a short time later they have moved noticeably, even though neither of them touched them.
Continuity mistake: When Carter comes into the ER with breakfast for everyone, he slips on the muddy floor and the food goes flying. A cardboard tray flies straight up from his left hand but ends up a few feet to his right, which defies the laws of physics.
Continuity mistake: Dr. Wesr is talking to Kerry outside while it is snowing. He has quite a lot of snow on his shoulders, but within a few seconds, most of it has disappeared, which in real life wouldn't happen.
Continuity mistake: During the last 2 minutes, Jerry is patronizing Dr. Waver. As he walks away, you see Dr. Greene (who has not been in this episode until now) walk across the hall in the background. A few moments later, outside, after Dr. Carter finishes chatting with the fire chief, he bumps into Dr. Greene outside. Dr. Greene is on his way in for his shift starting in 5 minutes and explains that he is coming straight from the airport. (00:43:22 - 00:44:50)
Continuity mistake: Carter rushes over to a Coke dispenser where there are four plastic jugs filled with ice and we see him dump all four of them into a plastic tub. The camera goes to Anna, who says "Carter, Carter" and then we see him dump the last two jugs again. When Carter reaches the patient, there is considerably more ice in the tub than he had to begin with.
Continuity mistake: When Carter is doing the eye test on the old woman, between shots he is holding the glass in front of a different eye instantly.
Continuity mistake: At the beginning of the show, Doug is working on the computer while Mark is talking to him. At first there is a document sitting on top of a thick black book but that disappears after a couple of shots - and neither of them touched it.
Continuity mistake: Romano is standing outside an ER room watching through the glass. To his left, down the hall, we can see a woman pushing someone in a wheelchair. But when the shot goes to him entering the room, there's an extra behind him on the left pushing a large cart of supplies - there was nowhere for him to come from.
Continuity mistake: Mark comes into the cafeteria with a sytrofoam bowl of something, and when he sits down he starts to take the lid off. The next shot shows him already eating it with a spoon - there was no time to accomplish this so quickly.
Continuity mistake: When the "accident" victims are brought in near near the start of the show, a woman wearing overalls is covered in masses of glistening blood in the closeup - but the wider shot shows less blood and it is much more dried on her clothing.
Revealing mistake: Just before the bowl of pablum falls onto Peter's head, look carefully to see a white adult hand (looks female) holding baby Reese's spoon, and push the bowl so it flips over onto the actor's head.
Continuity mistake: Lizzie sees Dr. Morgenstern for the first time in the ER and she asks Kerry, "Who the hell was that?", and Kerry answers, "Our Chief of Emergency Medicine." Yet when he resigns in Episode 19, he tells Peter he's resigning as Chief of Surgery. Unless he held both positions, Kerry's answer could not be considered a character mistake, as she would have known what his position was.
Continuity mistake: Near the beginning of the show, Peter is feeding Reese in the hospital cafeteria. Reese has a bowl of pablum that is in the middle of his high chair tray. The next shot shows the bowl way over to the left, even though there was no time for the change in position.
Answer: It was in "Chaos Theory", the first episode of season 9 (time code 00:13:55).
