After a brief monologue by Double A, J turns to him and says "Give me 5 feet, or I am gonna pluck you in your throat." He holds up his hand like he is going to flick Double A. In one shot, his wrist is bent up, but in the next shot, it's bent down. (00:26:20)

Audio problem: When Jeffrey Price asks J what is the plan, J replies "You're going to send me back to July 15, 1969." Two shots are shown as he says this line. The first shot shows a reverse angle of J starting to speak the line, however, his jaw is never shown moving. This line would require his jaw to move. (00:32:20)
Continuity mistake: After J shows Jeffrey Price the news report of the Boglodites, Jeffrey asks J "What's the plan?" and J is then shown raising his shoulders and placing his gun back into his back pocket.

The camera pulls up and back to show the scale of the building, then cuts back down to J. Now suddenly the window on his right side is open, and the lamp in the room is on. The window also changes from closed to open a few times in this scene. (00:33:25)
Continuity mistake: When Jeff is talking to J on the Flatiron, he is looking at J except for a brief shot where strangely he is suddenly facing left without having turned his head. Then a frame later, from another shot, he is back facing J. (00:33:50)
