Homecoming - S1-E15
Continuity mistake: When Jack shows Locke the case with guns, the bar trim beneath the handle is whole and unbroken. However, in "Whatever the Case May Be" when Boone tries to open the case without the key, the trim beneath the handle breaks off and is damaged. (00:27:45)
Continuity mistake: The white tape round Charlie's fingers, that first read "fate" and later "late", drastically change their appearance - such as the size and shape of the letters, and the color and condition of the tape, in numerous consecutive shots.
Continuity mistake: When Shannon is looking for Boone but instead finds his "jungle pal" Locke, he is gutting his dinner and gets blood on his face. The blood on Locke's face repeatedly changes, such as in one shot there's a small clot of blood beside his eye, and in another shot the blood is lower and larger. (00:19:00)
The Greater Good (a.k.a. Sides) - S1-E21
Continuity mistake: Sayid wears a black tank top when he speaks at Boone's burial, and it has a wide shallow tear and small hole at the collar. When he walks away with Jack, who is complaining about Locke, though the style of top is identical, now the tear is narrower and deeper, and the hole is bigger. Throughout this episode the tear, on the tank top Sayid wears, alternates, and the hole even disappears. (00:08:50)
White Rabbit - S1-E5
Continuity mistake: When Charlie and Hurley are talking to Jack about the water, Jack then shouts something like, "I'm not making any decision," and in the background two people walk by - they move from right to left. After a cut to Charlie and Hurley when Hurley asks "Why?" it cuts back to Jack, and the same two people walk from right to left again. (00:10:30)
Tabula Rasa - S1-E3
Continuity mistake: When Kate pulls Ray from the burning pickup, in the first shot as she drags him across the grass his overall suspenders are not on - they are not clasped shut. However, as Kate drags him, a few shots later the suspenders are properly clasped on. (00:30:50)
Continuity mistake: When Kate, Jack and Charlie find the cockpit with the pilot, the blood on the pilot's face differs between shots, such as in the shot from behind, when he turns to show the location of the transceiver. (00:39:15)
Whatever the Case May Be - S1-E12
Continuity mistake: After Kate and Sawyer find the corpses underwater, the marshal's Halliburton case that Sawyer retrieves has two protruding wide silver clasps to the handle's sides, and a thin, narrow handle with flat pivots at its base. The case that Kate tries to steal from Sawyer, and in all the following shots, has a very different style top - NO clasps whatsoever, and it has a round, wide handle with raised round pivots. The Halliburton with clasps is also seen in "Exodus 1" with the airport security officer. (00:06:10 - 00:12:20)
Continuity mistake: Some passenger seats from the wreckage, that are seen in various shots on the island here and in other episodes, are not the same seats shown in the interior shots of the plane. There are three distinct colors/styles of passenger seating in the interior shots, blue stripe in economy, grey stripe in business class, and also greyish leather in first class, which didn't end up on the beach anyway. (00:16:25)
The Greater Good (a.k.a. Sides) - S1-E21
Continuity mistake: Jack gives Sawyer a 9mm Sig pistol to take on the raft. When Sawyer pulls it out in "Adrift", it has changed into a Beretta 92F.
Continuity mistake: When Thomas breaks up with Claire, and they begin to argue, there are groceries spread out on the table right behind Claire. When Thomas leaves Claire stands beside the table, and now there are entirely different groceries - and more of them, spread out on the table. (00:18:05)
Continuity mistake: When Charlie leaves his seat on the airplane, as he is followed by the stewards, he walks through economy (blue stripe seats), then walks through business class (grey stripe seats and roomier) - where Boone and Shannon sit. But, in Charlie's next close-up, when the plane shakes, he leans on the blue seat in front of him, which he already passed and is farther back in the plane's cabin.
Tabula Rasa - S1-E3
Continuity mistake: When Ray and Kate are in the pickup, in the shot facing the oncoming vehicle as it beeps, Ray is driving in his right lane. In the next shot, whilst the vehicle still beeps, as the marshal pulls behind Ray, the marshal and Ray are both driving in their left lane. However, in the next shot, facing the beeping vehicle, Ray is driving in his right lane and then starts to pull over to his left. (00:30:10)
White Rabbit - S1-E5
Continuity mistake: When Jack, Hurley and Charlie discuss water situation, the suitcase filled with water bottles repeatedly changes. One example: when Charlie carries the stuffed suitcase, then sets it down, it is open just a couple of inches, but when Jack walks away the suitcase is bursting with bottles, and is open at least 18-20 inches. (00:10:00)
Exodus (2) - S1-E24
Continuity mistake: At the airport, when Hurley rushes to make his flight the sweat stain on his t-shirt changes drastically between shots, so by the time he boards the plane - it goes from drenched to much less wet.
Continuity mistake: When Boone is tied up with his right arm in front and his left arm at his back, just after Locke leaves, Boone tries to lean over to reach the knife. However, in the close-up of his back, it's his right arm that is tied behind him. The same flipped shot is used later, three more times, when he "hears" Shannon's scream. (00:15:30 - 00:22:40)
Born to Run - S1-E22
Continuity mistake: When Kate is at Tom's house, she looks at the photographs on the side of the fridge, and there is a close-up of a specific photo of Tom holding Connor. When Kate sits beside the table in the wide shot, that photo has vanished. (00:16:30)
Tabula Rasa - S1-E3
Continuity mistake: After Locke whispers to Michael, "I thought you should be the one to bring his dog back to him," when Locke points in the wide shot, Walt, who is sleeping on his stomach, has his head facing away from Michael. But when Michael says, "Hey thanks," Walt's head faces the opposite way towards Michael, and in the next shot he faces away again. (00:38:05)
Whatever the Case May Be - S1-E12
Continuity mistake: When Shannon helps Sayid with the French translations, and particularly later when they sit on the beach, she wears a pink shawl which repeatedly changes position - on and off her shoulder and arms, the entire time. (00:20:35)
Answer: Using a mold, a realistic pregnancy belly is made of latex (rubber), including the distinct belly button, to suit the proportions of Emilie de Ravin who plays Claire. It is then painted with a special paint/adhesive compound that adheres to the surface and for shots of the actual belly, additional veining and stretch marks are airbrushed on.
