Mistake Continuity: When Johnny 5 nearly drives the snack wagon over the edge to where it is hanging, it appears to have miraculously moved right back from the edge, making it look like he never went nearly over in the first place.

Mistake Visible crew/equipment: When Newton is playing with the robot arm and the piano you can clearly see wires attached to the top of it controlled by the puppeteers.

Mistake Continuity: When Number 5 gets out of the truck it is no longer hanging over the edge of the cliff. It has moved inland by several feet.

Mistake Visible crew/equipment: You can see a wire attached to the back of Stephanie's truck in this scene, which obviously stops it from really falling over the edge of the cliff.

Mistake Revealing: When number 5 is leading number 3 in to the toilet and moves at the last minute you see number 5 falling over but in the next seen hes perfectly fine.
