Bring The Pain - S2-E5

Bring The Pain - S2-E5

Continuity mistake: When Alex and George are trying to get out of the elevator that they are stuck in, watch the monitor screen attached to the gunshot victim.

Bring The Pain - S2-E5

Continuity mistake: When Derek talks with Mr. Chue in the rain under their umbrellas, in one shot Mr. Chue takes a big puff on his cigar. But in the next shot his face is relaxed and it is clear he didn't inhale; and then he takes the same puff again instantly anyway. (00:19:20)

Something to Talk About - S2-E7

Hamster

Let It Be - S2-E8

Continuity mistake: When Meredith puts the Hello Kitty plaster on her forehead in her car, she puts it on upside-down. When she reaches the elevator it is now on the right way up (it is unlikely she would have removed it just to place it back on the right way up.) In addition when she is in the elevator, from shot to shot the position of her fringe (and how much of it covers the plaster) keeps changing. (00:01:50 - 00:02:55)

Hamster
