Factual error: A major plot point for this season is that Max's genome has no "junk DNA." Instead, it's all coded for something. A standard human genome has about 95% junk DNA, with the remaining 5% coded for building proteins. However, research from the 1980s and 1990s indicates that junk DNA isn't junk at all, but rather explicit instructions to the cell on when and how to read the protein-building instructions. If Max doesn't have that, then her cells would never be able to build proteins and she would never have been born. Even though Max has extra coded DNA for an unknown purpose, there is still no way she could live without "junk DNA".

1 factual error in Season 2 generally
Starring: Jessica Alba, Michael Weatherly, J.C. MacKenzie, Richard Gunn
Continuity mistake: When Max is holding Lydia over the balcony, one wide shot shows that Lydia is hanging at an angle because Max is only holding one leg, but every other shot shows that Lydia's hair and head point straight down. (00:39:20)
Normal: Well, well, well... so far, your moron colleagues have come up with the following excuses for why you're strolling in here at the crack of noon - you had a dental emergency, your aunt died... again, and my personal favorite from this idiot - you were detained by the sector police for practicing witchcraft. Now, would you care to further insult my intelligence?
Max Guevara: I overslept.
Trivia: Richard Gunn's character was nicknamed 'Skectchy" but is 'real' name was Alvin Simon Theodore- the same as the three cartoon chipmunks. Also Normal's name on the show was Reagan Ronald after former president Ronald Reagan.
Question: Max kisses Joshua, so wouldn't he get Max's disease? Or is it only Logan?

Answer: Max's disease is specifically tailored to work only on cells exhibiting Logan's genome. No one else would notice it.
