Revealing mistake: The Emir is always shown wearing a black robe with a yellow stripe down each sleeve. When the Emir is telling Tintin it was Bab El Ehr who kidnapped his son, there is a portion of the yellow strip next to the cane he is holding around his elbow, that keeps flickering from yellow to black and back to yellow again. This occurs three times in one shot. (00:27:15)
