Continuity mistake: At one point in episode 1.2 ("Ah, But Underneath"), Susan looks at the note used to blackmail Mary Alice and we can see that it has been folded twice and become somewhat crumpled. Two episodes later in "Who's That Woman?" (1.4) when the girls show the note to Paul, it is almost perfectly smooth with a single horizontal crease.
Continuity mistake: When Bree goes to see Zak, in one shot her hands are intercrossed, then in the next her arms are crossed. (00:17:55)
Running to Stand Still - S1-E6
Continuity mistake: In one shot during the poker scene the baby moniter changes position to the other side of Lynette then back again. (00:13:30)
Running to Stand Still - S1-E6
Visible crew/equipment: When Susan is following Paul in the car she borrowed, we can see the reflection of a crew member on the right hand side of the window. (00:18:15)
Running to Stand Still - S1-E6
Continuity mistake: When Lynette is talking to Jordana the items on the table keep changing position in between shots. (00:29:30)
Running to Stand Still - S1-E6
Continuity mistake: When Bree goes over to talk to Dr. Goldfine in the restaurant, she puts her napkin on top of her plate, but when she sits back down, she takes it off of her chair.
Continuity mistake: When Bree sees the presents that Rex has bought for the children, she walks up to the car. As she stops walking you can see her hair particularly on her left side is being blown gently by the wind and continues to be blown through most of the shot. In the following shot her hair is now sitting perfectly without any wind blowing it.
Deliberate mistake: When Susan falls through the floorboards of Mike's house she uses the nearby towel to try and get the dog Bongo to help her. If you watch at the different angles the position of the dog keeps changing. When it shows Susan from behind the dog is almost right next to her face and stepping on the towel. In the shots from in front of Susan the dog is nowhere near the towel or even in the shot. This mistake looks more deliberate as the front on shots of Susan, the dog would likely have blocked her face from the camera.
Continuity mistake: When Bree, Susan and Lynette are scrubbing the road, a red sports car zooms past them. Lynette stands, hurls abuse and throws her scrubbing brush at the car which can be seen bouncing off the car and down the road. She then kneels down and continues to scrub with the brush.
Continuity mistake: As Susan tries to get the dog to help the second time you can see the towel Susan tried to use to get the dog to help her. The shot then shows Susan and the towel has disappeared. After a quick shot of the dog it cuts back to Susan and the towel has reappeared.
Plot hole: Several days must have passed between the teaser of this episode and the rest of it, since Gabrielle has had time to make up (very professional-looking) cards and posters, gotten several dozen volunteers and reserved dresses for many of them, yet Paul has only just gotten around to disposing of Mrs. Huber's body and trying to wash the blood out of his shirt. Even if we assume the teaser takes place right after the end of the last episode (when Paul murdered her), that's still several days of keeping a rotting corpse and enough evidence to put him away for life around his house.
Continuity mistake: When Bree gets out of the golf cart to see Rex on the field, she is carrying a pot of urine in her left hand, but in the next shot, of her upper torso and face, her left hand is clutching the strap of her handbag and the pot is now in her right hand.
Continuity mistake: When Lynette is sitting on the bench chatting to Claire in the park, you can see that Lynette has her hand on the pram, but when the camera angle is behind Lynette in other shots, she no longer does.
Continuity mistake: When Lynette sits down next to Claire on the bench at the park, Claire is wiping her hands with a tissue. Claire is not wiping her hands in the next shot, but in the shot after that, she is.
Continuity mistake: When Lynette introduces herself to Claire at the park, the strap on her handbag is on her shoulder. When the camera angle changes to behind Lynette in the next shot, the strap has gone, and in the shot after that, it is back again.
Audio problem: When the Stagehand says "Come on, you're up!" to Susan before she is about to go on the catwalk at Gabrielle's fashion show, the words do not match his lips.
Continuity mistake: When Zach is in Julie's bedroom, he says to her, "And they buried her, to protect me" and you can see that Zach has his hand on his cheek. When the camera angle changes to behind Zach in the next shot, he no longer does.
Continuity mistake: Before the fight between Helen and Susan at the fashion show, Susan has a flower in her hair. There is no sign of the flower when Helen tears off part of her wedding dress, but when Susan says "What?", the flower is back again.
Audio problem: When Susan is on the catwalk at Gabrielle's fashion show, Tom announces what she is wearing, but if you look in the background you can see his lips are not moving when he is speaking.
Chosen answer: Poker. They have been playing that this whole time, once a week with everyone who was invited that lived on the Lane.
