Continuity mistake: During the initial infiltration attempt, the little guy puts his hand on the railing once the alarm rings. His hand is on the inner part of the top, but when the guards storm the front porch guns in hand, he has it flat on top and moves to inner only a second later. At the very end of the scene he also has a guard pointing an automatic weapon at his head, but he was several steps behind in the wide angle. (00:03:10)
Continuity mistake: Magnum is in the hospital. There's a kid playing Defender on an Atari with Rick. In the close-up, the cord of the joystick dangles to the left, very visible, but it is not in the other shots. (00:04:00)
Continuity mistake: Rick bends in front of Waldo reiterating that it "A little hard" to believe that he's with the CIA. In the reverse shot his arms are lower than the previous shot. (00:19:25)
Continuity mistake: In the first shot of Magnum's room during Rick's visit with Waldo's codes, the modem is to the left of the phone, along the left side of the bedstand. In close-up the modem and cables take the whole width of the bedstand, horizontally placed. (00:23:30)
Continuity mistake: At the hospital, there's a push button desk phone on the table between Lee's and Magnum's beds. There are two closeups of this telephone when both Lee and Magnum lift the handset, and the entire telephone changes to a multi-line desk phone. Plus, in Lee's handset closeup, his hospital ID bracelet changes from narrow to twice the width, and in Magnum's handset closeup, the large floral box of tissues change to a short box of tissues. (00:24:10 - 00:27:10)
Continuity mistake: Overnight, Magnum uses the modem on his own. In the close-up when he picks up the receiver, the glasses on top of the tissue box are missing. (00:27:25)
Continuity mistake: When Higgins suggests "the standard double mirror device", TC's hand position changes between shots (fingers entwined, and then not). (00:29:30)
Continuity mistake: When Waldo's unbelievable story gets into the President stage, Rick has his hands on his hips in the wide shot, arms folded in the close-up. (00:31:40)
Continuity mistake: Holding the others at gunpoint, Waldo fetches the map from the table two times differently in two separate shots. (00:32:00)
Continuity mistake: During the hospital room dinner, Savannah reacts to Magnum burning his fingers by raising her hand from the table two times in two different moments. (00:34:30)
Continuity mistake: For the ending, Rick is shown putting on his pants. Few seconds later, when Higgins shouts "Your uniform!" at him, he's putting on the belt with the gun holster, but a few seconds later the belt he's trying to buckle is still the pants', and the gunbelt is still on the table.
