Now You Know - S4-E1

If There's Anything I Can't Stand - S4-E4

Now I Know, Don't Be Scared - S4-E6

You Can't Judge a Book by Its Cover - S4-E7
Continuity mistake: When Lynette opens the trunk of her sister's car, the trunk can actually be seen opening twice.
Continuity mistake: Adam hands Katherine the note he found on the floor written by her aunt in a previous episode. Katherine is holding the paper up. When Adam walks around her in the next shot, the paper is gone and Katherine is only holding her keys/purse. The close up of Katherine (the very next shot) shows her holding the paper again.
Continuity mistake: At the end of the previous episode, an unknown someone can be seen circling Dylan's face on a picture of her and Katherine in the newspaper reporting on the Founder's Ball. In this episode, we see the cop who pulled Dylan over get back in his truck where a copy of the newspaper sits on the passenger seat. This time, both Dylan and Katherine are circled.
Other mistake: In the scene where Lynette and Tom are fighting about Lynette having taken Kayla to see a therapist, and Kayla walks away, you can hear Tom yelling about Lynette having a distorted reality and that she can't pull crap like that. In the scene where Kayla comes back into the house after conning the twins into jumping off the roof, Tom and Lynette repeat the same dialogue again.
Mother Said - S4-E15
Continuity mistake: When Orson is on the phone with his lawyer, he sets down the notepad with a page half filled with writing at the front. However, later in the scene Edie walks into the room and the front page of the notepad is full of writing, plus there's an extra line in the first paragraph. No one was around to move the page as Orson was in the shower.
Mother Said - S4-E15
