Mistake Factual error: "The Gentleman Caller": After emptying the safe, Gerald shoots the night watchman through a glass door. But somehow, the glass never breaks.

Mistake Continuity: "Isabel": When Clemens is stopped by the police, the shoulder of his raincoat is clean, then has wet leaves all over it, then is perfectly clean again.

Mistake Continuity: "Isabel": During his questioning inside the house, Clemens' hair goes back and forth from falling over his forehead to brushed back several times between takes.

Mistake Character mistake: "The Jar": Charlie tells Thedy that the hair ribbon embroidered with her name cost 65 cents, "five cents a letter." But her name is Thedy Sue Hill, which is only 12 letters - or 60 cents worth.

Mistake Continuity: "The Gentleman Caller": Gerald holds the wine glass upside down, taping the broken stem back on. But when the shot cuts, he's instantly holding it upright instead.

Mistake Revealing: "The Gentleman Caller": Gerald hides what are supposed to be thousand-dollar bills inside Emmy's magazines. But the money he's handling all carries George Washington's portrait. It's one-dollar bills.

Water's Edge (season 3, episode 3)

Mistake Factual error: Pete Taylor's corpse is a bare skeleton after just two years in the sea-shack's attic, though it shouldn't be. There should at least be traces of hair and clothing surrounding the bones.

Mistake Revealing: The murder victim's skeleton, which Rusty finds in the attic, has a clear cut all the way around its skull. It also has metal pins holding together what turns out to be rubber bones: one of the ribs wobbles up and down when Rusty brushes against it with the cash box.

An Unlocked Window (season 3, episode 17)

Mistake Continuity: At the end, Stella rips open the female impersonator's blouse, exposing his hairy chest. But in the following shots, the blouse is once again buttoned up tight.

Power of Attorney (season 3, episode 24)

Mistake Continuity: In the dining room, Mary places the telephone on the kitchen counter by reaching through the double doors over the bar. The doors, which she pulls shut, bounce back open slightly on their own. Mary then commits suicide. No one else has been there, but when Agatha returns to discover the body, the bar doors are tightly shut again.
