Driving Mr. Mossback - S2-E4

Continuity mistake: When Keith picks up his sleeping niece, the shot from behind him shows her hand on his shoulder, near the side of his neck. When the shot changes to face him, Taylor's arm is wrapped behind his neck, her hand out of view.

In Place of Anger - S2-E6

Continuity mistake: After dinner when Ruth and Nikoli are in the kitchen, Nikoli is drinking vodka; the bottle is on the table next to him. In one shot he is holding his glass and the view suddenly cuts to Ruth but we can still see the table and the bottle; his glass is now next to the bottle. There was no time for him to put it there in between the shots.

Someone Else's Eyes - S2-E9

Continuity mistake: When Nate drives his motorcycle out to the cliff overlooking the beach, we see him get off his bike wearing his helmet and glasses. He strides along and then before stopping takes off his helmet and not his glasses. In the very next shot he is squatting down and his glasses are gone, but he made no attempt to take them off and there wasn't enough time in between shots to do so.

Tobin OReilly

The Room - S1-E6

Continuity mistake: When Nate is trying to pay the mechanic, the shot from behind him shows him closing his wallet, but the next shot from in front shows him putting his credit card away, then closing his wallet again.

Brenda: The future is just a fucking concept that we use to avoid living today.

Season 4 generally

Trivia: In the promos for season 4 you see the characters shopping in a small grocery store to the song "Feeling Good" by Nina Simone. This is a tribute to a scene in the movie "Point of No Return" where Bridgette Fonda's character does the same thing.

Show generally

Question: At the end of the last ever episode, when Claire is taking the family photo, Nate whispers in her ear 'You can't take a picture unless it's already gone.' What does he mean by that?

Answer: Nate actually say "You can't take a picture of this, it's already gone." It's kinda hard to explain, but he's referring to the fact that the moment Claire wants to take a picture of is over already, and she can't take a photo of it, just a different, lesser moment.
