Continuity mistake: In the scene that Lindsay is taking photos with her phone, she states she was taking pictures to send to her mom. Her mom died when she was a child.
Plot hole: In the beginning, they state that "Wendy" fell on the bus at another location. Don quickly states the bus was parked in the same location all weekend. Later, they find the primary location and find a window and hypothesize that a bus could've been parked outside the window, and that's where she landed on it. It's weird that they wouldn't check out the parking spot for the bus right away, only finding the spot once they find the classroom.
Creatures of the Night - S1-E2
Continuity mistake: When Mac is looking for the rat in the rainpipe, the shot changes and Mac has his sunglasses on for a split-second.
Green Piece - S5-E17
Continuity mistake: When Danny asks Lindsay if she is excited to go back to Montana, Lindsay replies she is excited to see her mom so her mom can see her pregnant, but it is revealed in later seasons that her mother died when she was young and that she only has a dad.
Other mistake: Hawks is handed a pretty small container with some of the victims brains in it, and says there is about 50% of the brain still left out there to find. There is no way half of a brain is in that small container, it's not even filled all the way.
Chosen answer: Probably to broaden the scope of the show's plot and give the audience a chance to see the characters in a different setting, People act differently at home from the way they do at their workplace. By the ninth season, the characters would have become overly familiar and predictable. It gives the writers a chance to do something different with them.
