Homecoming - S1-E15

Homecoming - S1-E15
Continuity mistake: When Charlie examines the snuffbox, its position rotates 90°. (00:14:20)
Homecoming - S1-E15
Visible crew/equipment: When the camera pans onto Churchill's snuffbox, the cameraman and camera can be seen moving in the silver lacquer. (00:14:20)
Homecoming - S1-E15
Continuity mistake: When Boone runs into the jungle in daylight he holds his stick at an angle pointing up. We then see a closeup shot of his hands holding the stick and it's horizontal. (00:21:00)
Homecoming - S1-E15
Continuity mistake: When Jack shows Locke the suitcase full of guns, you can see a stick visible in Locke's right hand. However, when Jack asks if Locke knows how to use a gun, you can see that after the camera has panned around, Locke is now holding the gun with both hands, with the stick nowhere to be seen. (00:27:10)
Homecoming - S1-E15
Continuity mistake: When Jack shows Locke the case with guns, the bar trim beneath the handle is whole and unbroken. However, in "Whatever the Case May Be" when Boone tries to open the case without the key, the trim beneath the handle breaks off and is damaged. (00:27:45)
Homecoming - S1-E15
Revealing mistake: The face of "Ethan" that Jack tackles is seen briefly, but it is obviously a stuntman, not William Mapother. (00:32:45)
Homecoming - S1-E15
Continuity mistake: During the fight between Ethan and Jack you can see as Ethan rams Jack against the tree, his tattoo has switched sides. (00:33:20)
Homecoming - S1-E15
Continuity mistake: At the end of Jack's fight, Ethan has 5 blood trails on his face that disappear briefly. (00:34:00)
Homecoming - S1-E15
Other mistake: Ethan kills one of the survivors. Sawyer thinks it's Steve but Hurley corrects him and tells him that it was actually Scott. They make a point of Scott being the deceased and Steve being the one people mix him up with. According to the actors playing Scott and Steve it was in fact Steve who got killed but the producers messed it up.
Visible crew/equipment: When Sawyer finds his blue tarp that the boar ran off with earlier, Sawyer hears the whispers, then the boar reappears and chases him. When the mean old boar flips Sawyer over, the chain link fence (used for the stunt) is clearly visible beyond the grass, at the top right corner of the screen. (Also seen on Disc 7.) (00:12:10)
Visible crew/equipment: When Sawyer is tracking the boar, the camera is moving behind Sawyer, and you are able to see the camera's shadow move on the leaves. This happens in the shot before Sawyer gets on his knee checking out the boar tracks. (00:15:25)
Continuity mistake: When Sawyer shoots "Sawyer" there is a 15 ft tall grounded lamppost at the corner of the link fence, with an overhead curved head giving off the dramatic spot of light in the wet darkness, near the trash receptacle. However, earlier when Sawyer gets out of the car at the Sweet Shrimp, as he checks his gun, that towering lamppost is non-existent. (00:25:55 - 00:36:10)
Factual error: In the first scene in Sydney the camera pans from the opera house toward the rich North Shore suburb, except it shows that there are no houses on the shore whatsoever. In reality there are houses scattered across the shoreline.
Factual error: The location of the working dock in Sydney where Sawyer buys a gun doesn't really exist next to the Opera House, as pictured. The reality is the site has a glass cruise ship terminal, not a shabby wooden workshop.
Continuity mistake: When Shannon is looking for Boone but instead finds his "jungle pal" Locke, he is gutting his dinner and gets blood on his face. The blood on Locke's face repeatedly changes, such as in one shot there's a small clot of blood beside his eye, and in another shot the blood is lower and larger. (00:19:00)
Continuity mistake: Once Sun leaves the bathroom, Jin's hands begin to shake as he washes the blood off, in fact there is much more blood on his hands now to wash off. Suddenly there is a silver/red soap dispenser on the right of the faucet (this isn't the gold/red one on the left), where the bar of soap was earlier, and there are also two large white towels hanging on the bar, whereas there was only one in all the previous shots. The early part of this flashback is in "House of Rising Sun" and the additional last shot was filmed at a later date. (00:25:25)
Continuity mistake: When Jin is packing to leave the cave, his backpack is wide open and unzipped when he swings it onto his right shoulder and then carries the fishing net. After a brief cut to Sun shouting in English, Jin is walking away carrying the net, and the backpack is still on his shoulder, only now it is zipped closed. (00:32:15)
Continuity mistake: When Shannon is talking to Locke about Boone staying out of her business, her hair changes between each shot. It is very noticeable, she goes from having no hair on her face, to having a lot hanging down the side of her face.
Answer: He was eating a peice of an orange with the skin still on.
