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).
Random Acts - S3-E20
Continuity mistake: After Mark is beaten up, he topples out into the hall when Doug opens the bathroom door. The shot from the hall shows his body from the armpits up is in the hall, but from the shot from inside the bathroom, he is lying in the hall from the hip up. Nobody moved him in the meantime.
Continuity mistake: When Doug is outside with his father, and the shot is on Ray, we can see a lot of snow in the air, but when the camera goes to Doug, there is no snow at all. The snow distribution on his father's coat change from shot to shot as well, too much to happen in only a Split Second.
The Peace of Wild Things - S6-E6
Continuity mistake: When Peter is doing the DNA test on Reese, the little boy's hands alternate from being behind him to being in front of him throughout the scene with no time for natural change.
Continuity mistake: Carter is working on a patient who has swallowed a lot of taffy - he is sitting behind his head with both hands working on his mouth. But when Anspaugh walks in he suddenly has one elbow up in the air and the other hand wrapped around the patient's chin. There was no time for the change in position.
Continuity mistake: During the scene where Carol and Mark are arguing with Doug about him examining the girl, the door behind her is closed. At the end of the scene, as Doug walks away, the door is open, even though no one went near it.
Survival of the Fittest - S7-E17
Continuity mistake: When Carter is talking to the boy who has asthma, at one point he says something like "I'm trying to help," notice the tube is not in the boy's mouth. The angle then changes, and he is holding the tube in his mouth instantly.
Tell Me Where It Hurts - S9-E7
Continuity mistake: In this episode Kovac has a patient who needs eye surgery. While at County General, Kovac says that the patient is 16 years old. Later, when Kovac goes to the golf course to get the doctor who does the surgery, he says the patient is 14.
Continuity mistake: After Carter pulls the IV out of the patient who was allergic to sulfa, Malik asks, "Where's all the blood coming from?" and we see the patient's arm outstretched, bleeding from where the IV was. Carter says, "She must have pulled the IV out", and we see her arm folded up over her stomach - there was no time for the change in position.
Stuck on You - S5-E6
Continuity mistake: Near the start of the show, Lucy goes into Carter's room, putting her backpack on the bed and disturbing his girlfriend. She then turns and rushes out of the room, and her backpack is on her back, even though she didn't have time to put it there.
Other mistake: When Doug and the nurses are watching the TV about a motorcycle accident, Kerry comes along and calls him 'Mark'. This could be a character error, but as Doug responds 'yeah', and they talk, it indeed becomes a production error. In real life, the person would have corrected her. (00:07:15)
Continuity mistake: Carol is signing papers for the notary and he is complaining about his job - he has one hand up on his large book and the other in his lap. The shot changes and his arm and hand are under the book, with no time to shift naturally.
Continuity mistake: Susan and nurse Connie are talking to the fraudulent doctor - Susan has her clipboard at waist level and is lifting one page up with her right hand. The next shot shows her holding the clipboard down at hip level and both hands are on it. There was not enough time for the change.
Continuity mistake: Near the beginning of the show, Doug is examining baby Josh and puts his stethoscope in his ears. Kerry says, "Your actions are totally irresponsible", and the shot goes to Doug. There is no sign of the stethoscope anywhere. The next shot, from behind him, shows it's around his neck. He then takes it off and the next shot should show it in his hands - but it's disappeared again.
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: In the OR, Peter is trying to save Dr. Swanson's life. Lizzie is standing in the corner watching. She has her right hand up to her chin, resting the elbow on her left hand, which is at her waist. Subsequent shots show the opposite - her left hand on her right.
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.
Continuity mistake: Carol is putting little bandages on Duncan's face and we see her put 2 on his forehead and 3 on his cheek. The shot changes and now there are 3 on his forehead and those on his cheek have shifted position slightly.
Continuity mistake: Mark is talking to Maggie about getting Louise on the transplant list - he has his arms clasped in front of him with his hands wrapped around his elbows. The shot changes and his right arm is outstretched with his hand on the wall - with no time for the change.
Answer: It was in "Chaos Theory", the first episode of season 9 (time code 00:13:55).
