Dexter

Beauty And The Beast - S5-E4

Continuity mistake: When Lumen stabs Dexter with his knife in the swamp, she hits right above his elbow which he grabs promptly. When the camera angle changes, he's now grabbing his upper arm that's bleeding from a different spot than where he was stabbed.

Hello, Bandit - S5-E2

Continuity mistake: Deb moves in with Dexter to his apartment in a 2nd bedroom during season 2 following the ice killer's kidnapping and attempt on her life. But in Season 5 when they try to share this apartment again, it's only 1 bedroom now?

Do You Take Dexter Morgan? - S3-E12

Other mistake: The marriage certificate for Rita's first marriage shows her date of birth as 04-19-1989 and Dexter states she married at 16. The marriage date is 08-16-1989, when she would have been 4 months old. She also would only be 17 at the start of the series (2006) if she was born in 1989. (00:13:45)

About Last Night - S3-E9

Question: Dexter tests the blood on Miguel's shirt, to see if it's Freebo's. It looks like he's just using a DNA sequencer and the blood result comes back "bovine." Can a DNA sequencer differentiate which species the blood came from like that? Or perhaps he was using a different type of blood analysis machine? Is there an analysis machine that's capable of that? I thought the way to test if blood is human or not, "anti-human serum" is mixed with the blood to see if it will clot. So wouldn't the only way to tell it was bovine blood is to inject it with "anti-bovine serum"?

Answer: The short answer is yes, it could. but, it would have to be set up to analyze results to differentiate species. The sequencer will report the base pairs for any properly prepared sample, but interpreting the results is a software package. The software is available, but I would think it unlikely that an analysis package used in a forensics lab would have the capability to be so specific. More likely it would report "Non Human Sequences Found."
