The Longer You Stay - S8-E2

Continuity mistake: Inside the first 10 minutes, Greene finishes a trauma and his shift and heads upstairs to take Ella from Corday, so she can start her shift. Next, we go back down to the ER, where Benton and Finch are assessing a trauma victim. In the background you see Greene checking an X-ray film, but he has meant to already leave with his baby.

Beyond Repair - S8-E11

Continuity mistake: Chuny tells Abby that Weaver is looking for her because she didn't call Child Services for a patient. Abby then goes to a phone to call. While she's on the call she hands Malik some sporting event tickets. The next scene shows Weaver out on a date when she bumps into Malik and Susan on their way to the sporting event. The very next scene is back in the ER where Abby is telling Carter that Lewis (Susan) just discharged a patient. The scenes don't line up, as they give the impression that Weaver, Malik and Lewis are all on shift at the hospital, when they're out on the town at the same time.

The Letter - S8-E20

Continuity mistake: When Carter and Abby are kind of fighting outside, when Carter is carrying Abby back to the car,from the front shot he threw her over his left shoulder, but a second later, from the rear view when he drops her she is on his right shoulder.

The Letter - S8-E20

Continuity mistake: When Dr Greene opens his locker for the last time, the locker is hinged on the left. However when Kerry and Carter clean out Dr Greene's locker after his death, the locker is hinged on the right.
