Other mistake: Throughout the show, during the into credits, people's names have 1 or 2 letters replaced by green characters to symbolise elements from the periodic table. However, Michael Slovis has the 'Ch' highlighted. There is no 'Ch' on the periodic table. (00:03:20)
Continuity mistake: When season 1 left off, at the very end of the last episode, Tuco examines the blue meth seriously and says, "What is this shit? This is blue." At the start of season 2, the scene is repeated, only when Tuco sees the blue meth, he laughs and then says "What is this? It's blue." Even though its supposed to be the same scene, the dialogue is slightly different and Tuco's demeanor is completely different. (00:01:05)
Continuity mistake: At the end of season 1, we see the meth get weighed and Tuco tell No Doze to give Walter some more money. However in this episode the scene is different. We see Tuco give Walter the money which already includes the extra money. (00:02:15)
Continuity mistake: At the end of the last episode it's mentioned by Gonzo how heavy the meth is. However, in the same scene in this episode, it's omitted. (00:02:50)
Visible crew/equipment: When Tuco shouts "Yeah look at this" the camera cuts to Jesse and in his sunglasses you can see a crew member reflected. (00:03:40)
Visible crew/equipment: As Walt and Jessie get into the car at the start a light screen is reflected in Jesse's glasses. (00:04:20)

Continuity mistake: The way that Walt hold the pack of beans, and the position of the beans in the pack changes between camera angles. (00:28:20)
Revealing mistake: When Hank is summarizing what happened at the junkyard, you can see the big dead guy breathing. (00:42:00)
Continuity mistake: When Hank asks to get closer to the crime scene, he crouches right next to the one dead guy. Camera cuts and he's about 3 foot further back. (00:42:30)
Revealing mistake: At the end of the episode when Tuco shows up at Walter's house in the backseat of Jesse's car, he tells Walter to get in. As they drive off, the shot pans out to show the street sign across from Walter's house. The sign says Piermont, which is the real name of the street. In the show, the Whites live on Negra Arroyo Lane. (00:48:00)
Continuity mistake: At the end of the episode when Walt and Jesse are leaving the junkyard, the camera pans to Tuco and Ganzo watching them drive away. However, this is at the same time Ganzo is moving No Doze's body and is subsequently crushed by a car.
Continuity mistake: When Walter and Jesse try to leave again, Tuco asks them what the hurry is and they say they are done. But then Tuco walks right up to Jesse in one shot and is staring him in the face as he nods. It then cuts to a different angle as Tuco says "You're done" But now suddenly he's standing face to face with Walter and then turns to look at Jesse.
Continuity mistake: When Jesse gets the gun, the fold is facing screen left. Camera cuts and it's facing screen right.
Continuity mistake: When Jr. is walking out of Hollie's room with the freshly printed posters, the box is on the floor with the flap open by the leg of the table. When we see Jr. leaving from the box's POV, the box has rotated and the table leg can no longer be seen by the flap of the box. (00:14:20)
Chosen answer: It is part of the ritual for la Santa Muerte. It is a sign of humility and sacrifice.
