Circle Us - S5-E7

Character mistake: Searching for clues to identify a suspect, Masuka takes fingerprints from the interior of a truck. Back at the lab, he says he had two dozen prints and they all belong to the same person. Unless the prints are all of the same FINGER, there is no way he could know the prints were all from the same person without a suspect to compare them to. Masuka is a forensic expert and should know better. (00:15:40)

The Angel of Death - S6-E5

Character mistake: Louis Greene, Masuka's new intern, is asked to find the person who purchased Rudy's prosthetic hand. He is unable to do so; however, as a consolation, he says "I installed a modded-up Intel chip to overclock your CPU." You can overclock your CPU, but you don't need another chip to do so. (00:44:00)

Upvote valid corrections to help move entries into the corrections section.

Suggested correction: Only K series intel CPU's can be overclocked so a CPU upgrade is understandable if the previous one was not overclockable.

If I Had a Hammer - S4-E6

Character mistake: In this episode, as well as 1-2 others, Dexter holds his slide phone upside down (only in the edits/cuts where he wasn't shown answering the phone). When the phone is slid open, the front cover goes above/higher than the backside of the phone. And a few instances I've seen, the side closest to his face 'lower' than the outside/backside of the slide phone, strongly suggesting the phone was held upside down.

Dirty Harry - S4-E5

Continuity mistake: When Dexter listens to Officer Lundy's tape recording, we hear Lundy say that the Trinity killer's weight is 190 to 200 pounds. When we saw him recording that, he said 200 to 220 pounds.

Those Kinds of Things - S6-E1

[MC Hammer's "U Can't Touch This" playing.]
Former Classmate: Come on, Dexter. It's hammer time.
Dexter: [internally] I have no idea what hammer time is. Or how it differs from regular time.

Father Knows Best - S1-E9

Question: The DNA test is a match, but later in the 2-3rd season we discover that Harry (foster father) had an affair with the real mother. Is Harry the real father and takes him but not his brother in because of that or not?

Answer: No, Harry is not the real father. While he did have an affair with Dexter's biological mother (Laura Moser), this was when she was his C.I. Dexter was already born at that point.
