Continuity mistake: Director Shepard has long nails with a French manicure, but when McGee gives her the envelope from Gibbs, in the closeup Jenny's nails are short and unpolished while she holds the old photo of herself. (00:43:10)

Continuity mistake: When the bike and Mini turn down a road just after the crash at the start we see the car the bike is approaching from behind has got a junction to its right.
