Visible crew/equipment: S4xE8 "Meet Kevin Johnson": Near the end, Karl has nothing in his left ear when he and Alex sit down and start talking, but when Karl falls onto the ground, the actor has a wireless earwig device in his left ear in his close-up, before Alex turns him over. Then, when Alex sits by the tree distraught, Danielle tries to convince her to listen, and in Alex's extreme close-ups, she has a mini lav mic (similar style to DK3 series) at her right ear that becomes visible.

Continuity mistake: S4xE8 "Meet Kevin Johnson": Near the end, Danielle, Alex, and Karl stop for a couple of minutes to drink water, and when the bullet hits Karl's water bottle, in the close-up we see the low level of water inside the water bottle directly above the leak, but in the next shot there's much more water inside the bottle above the leak.

Eggtown - S4-E4

Revealing mistake: Episode 4-4 "Eggtown": When Locke is in the basement hallway, he slams Ben's breakfast tray against the wall. The wall moves like it's thin plywood. Odd since basements are either thick wood or concrete over packed earth. (00:02:30)

Grumpy Scot

Confirmed Dead - S4-E2

Continuity mistake: Towards the end of the episode, when Locke is preparing to shoot Ben, Ben starts talking about Charlotte and her team. Locke is then holding his gun in his right hand, and holding Ben with his left. As Ben is saying "Because I know what they're doing here", there is an angle change, and Locke is suddenly holding his gun with both hands.

Season 4 generally

Continuity mistake: Ep. 4-12 "There's no place like home". In the first flashforward, the Oceanic representative talks to the survivors about meeting the press. As she finishes by saying, "See you on the ground", you can see baby Aaron on Kate's lap, and she is holding his left hand in hers down by his side. Cut to a close-up of Kate, and Aaron suddenly has both hands free and is holding them up to his mouth. (00:02:25)

Cabin Fever - S4-E11

Continuity mistake: In the scene just after John Locke's teenage mother runs from the hospital room, the nurse converses with the grandmother. You can see her put a cigarette to her mouth with visible lipstick stains on the wrong end of the cigarette, possibly from previous takes. (00:32:10)

Confirmed Dead - S4-E2

Character mistake: When Jack and co find Frank, we see Jack checking for a pulse and declaring there is one. However, Jack is using his thumb to check for a pulse on Frank's wrist. As a doctor, Jack would know your thumb has its own pulse. (00:33:40)

Kate: It was full of bees.
Charlie: [Looking at her chest.] I'd say more like C's.
