Flowers From Alexander - S3-E5

Continuity mistake: Sykes is drinking a beer when Nicholas knocks on the door, and he leaves the beer can on the balcony railing when he crosses to let Nicholas in. When they both walk out onto the balcony a moment later, the beer can has disappeared. (00:43:05)

The Scorpio Drop - S3-E14

Continuity mistake: Angela's limo picks up Mundy and drives down a tree-lined country road. But in the very next shot, the view out the back window is of a busy city street with nary a tree in sight. (00:13:00)

Fortune City - S3-E18

Continuity mistake: Mona draws a heart in the dust on the bar and writes "Al + Mona" inside it. When we see a close-up it, however, the L is suddenly much larger than before, and the name "Mona" is written in smaller letters. (00:04:00)

A Sour Note - S2-E2

Factual error: Gino commits a murder using a six-shooter with a silencer attached, and his shot doesn't make any noise. But it should have. Though it's a long-standing Hollywood cliché, a revolver with a silencer wouldn't be silent at all. Unlike automatic weapons, revolvers are open-chambered, which allows sound to escape. They can't be muffled with a silencer. (00:34:00)
