Continuity mistake: Becca, the pregnant woman, says that Cuddy must be mad at her for having been a drug addict and possibly causing her baby's lungs to be underdeveloped. While she's talking, her right hand is rubbing her belly. In the close up, the hem of her hospital gown just barely reaches the middle of her tummy. In the immediate next shot, it is much further to the right side. (00:21:20)
Factual error: When Dr. Cameron's agoraphobic patient goes into cardiac arrest at home following the surgery, she tells House to get the paddles ready. House, while performing CPR is talking on the phone with the patient's lawyer, informing him that patient has PEA (pulseless electrical activity) on the cardiac monitor, but Dr. Cameron defibrillates the patient anyway, restoring the heartbeat. Defibrillation is not indicated for PEA, it will not restore the pulse and might send the patient into vFib.
Emancipation - S5-E8
Continuity mistake: At the very beginning, House walks in and puts his cane on the table on top of Thirteen's papers. She picks it up and moves it away, placing the bottom end on a stack of books. Cut to House and the cane is now flat on the table. (00:02:55)
Continuity mistake: When House steals Wilson's ice cream, the ice cream gets bitten more than once even though House only takes one bite at it. (00:12:45)
Continuity mistake: When House trips before entering his office, Taub is holding the patient's x-ray film. It is either over the folder or under it in different shots. (00:11:05)
Character mistake: The chef at the beginning is talking about mustard greens, but is actually holding up broccoli.
Continuity mistake: Season 6 - Ep. 6 Known Unknowns Before House goes to the hotel he's out on the street and the collar of his shirt is up during all front and back angles, except for a brief single back angle where it's down. Then it changes to up again.
Continuity mistake: House sits down and helps himself to Wilson's lunch. He pulls a fork out of his pocket. In the next shot, he's still fiddling with his jacket pocket, next shot, he's got the fork there again. (00:11:35)
Here Kitty - S5-E18
Continuity mistake: Series 5, Episode 18, "Here Kitty": When Judy (the patient) holds the tape out for House before her bronchial attack, the way she holds it changes instantly. (00:13:45)
Here Kitty - S5-E18
Continuity mistake: House spews cranberry juice all over the right side of Kutner's lab coat. In the next shot, the red stains have disappeared from the coat and are now on his shirt.
Other mistake: Amber states that Chase has a cat, even though in several other episodes Chase says he doesn't have a cat and wouldn't let Cameron get one because he hates cats. (00:16:10)
Continuity mistake: During the scene in which House is offering up liquor-flavored ice cream he sets the containers in a row down the table 1-2-3-4-5. He then puts spoons in the three containers closet to Foreman, 1-2-3. The shot changes and before anyone touches the spoons they are now in containers 1, 2, and 4.
Character mistake: When reviewing the results of the mercury testing on a patient, Dr. Taub says "Test results - Surprise, Surprise, Marcus Webly was wrong". The character to which Taub referred was actually Marcus Welby of 1969-1976 TV fame. (00:08:14)
The Tyrant - S6-E3
Continuity mistake: In the scene where the patient is having a heart attack, Dr Cameron is shown on the phone to House with dark hair despite having had blonde hair since season 4. She has blonde hair again in the following scene. (00:10:30 - 00:11:30)
Factual error: During the differential, Chase suggests the underlying condition is a systemic infection. House says this is unlikely since the patient received IV antibiotics the previous week. However, the doctor in the intro scene remarks that he thought the patient had C. Diff, which is treated with oral vancomycin, not IV. Oral vancomycin has next to no oral absorption, and would not treat a systemic infection. Moreover, even if vancomycin was orally absorbed, it would only treat infections caused by gram positive organisms and not other infections caused by gram negative organisms. (00:12:30)
Continuity mistake: Right after House has given the speech he and Wilson step outside and House removes his tie. After this his shirt collar changes between almost every shot, from being tucked in his jacket to being on the outside of it.
Character mistake: Episode 6.12, Moving the Chains: Marcus tells House that he and Eric were arrested for stealing a car, he was 16 and Eric was 14. He also says that his brother never did anything criminal after that. In season 1, we were told that Eric was 16 when he was arrested for stealing a car.
Character mistake: The girl who admits to changing Chase's profile says that what she is doing is negative reinforcement when it is actually positive punishment. Negative reinforcement involves taking something away (eg a noise) to encourage the behaviour whereas positive punishment involves adding something (the pictures) to discourage future behaviour.
Continuity mistake: At the start, Cuddy's arms are constantly changing position depending on the camera shot. (00:01:00)
Other mistake: When House is inserting foil pieces in the wall socket to create a short circuit in order to ignite a roll of toilet paper, he touches both pieces of foil simultaneously, which should have electrocuted him. (00:30:30)
Answer: You have the right episode. The big deal at the end about the letters on the pills was to show that Brandon had the wrong pills all along. House was smiling because he was right.
