7 continuity mistakes in season 7 - chronological order

(9 votes)

Benton Backwards - S7-E4

Continuity mistake: The timeline makes no sense. Carter goes home early and is working out in daylight at home. Kerry needs to leave at 6pm and Mark has a hockey game at 8pm. Luka and Abby are out on a date, after dark, when they are mugged, next Mark is at the hockey game. But shortly after, Kerry is getting ready to leave when Carter comes back to finish his shift. After that, Elizabeth is back in the ER working. Nothing in this timeline makes any sense.

Rescue Me - S7-E7

Continuity mistake: In the scene where Dr. Benton is getting Reese ready for day care in the staff lounge and is talking to Dr. Finch, the shot shows Reese with his left hearing aid out of his ear, hanging down then when the angle changes it shows his hearing aid back in his ear without Dr. Benton putting it back in or touching it at all. (01:33:45)

Rescue Me - S7-E7

Continuity mistake: When the man who was hit by a driver while on his bike, was being taken to the trauma room he is bumped by someone and blood starts spurting everywhere, including on Maggie, who is wearing Abby's coat. In the very next frame, the coat is clean with no blood on it at all, with no time for Maggie to have changed the coat.

Sailing Away - S7-E19

Continuity mistake: When Carter and Abby drive up to the motel that Maggie is holed up in in Oklahoma, the rental car they are driving has no front license plate. When they pull up to Abby's apartment the next evening, in the same rental car, there is a front plate on the car and the plate is from Illinois.

Be Still My Heart - S6-E13

Visible crew/equipment: When the son of the accident victims is being led through the trauma rooms to see his parents' bodies, you can see Laura Innes crouching under a table in the background directing the scene. Innes was the director of this episode and it was established that this episode took place on her character's day off. Therefore, she should not have appeared in front of the camera at all.

Trivia: Doug Ross frequently hung his head low, appearing ashamed or thoughtful or privately amused, depending on the scene. This wasn't just an element of the character: George Clooney had taken to writing his lines on papers, sheets, and other props.
