Saving Private Leo - S4-E17

Stupidity: The brothers are angry at Leo because they say he's responsible for them dying because he chose to save other soldiers instead of them, Leo also blames himself for the same reason and says he should have stayed and gotten them out. But in the flashback it shows Leo helping them and then running off to help other soldiers, after he runs off the brothers are killed just a few seconds later. Even if Leo had chosen to stay with the brother he couldn't have gotten them out in time, the only difference would have been Leo would have died with them, but Leo dies in the same war so he didn't live much longer. Leo's guilt and the brothers' blame don't make any sense at all.

Teacher's Pet - S1-E4

Stupidity: Xander really has no reason not to believe Buffy when she tells him that Miss French is evil/a giant bug. There is an in-universe explanation of pheromones affecting him, but that's flimsy at best. He's already dealt with vampires and witches and body-swapping, and there has already been a murder around the time Miss French showed up... the fact he doesn't believe Buffy seems very forced and contrived.

Worlds Apart - S1-E2

Stupidity: The bad guy kills the deputy in the swamp, then later sees a little girl who witnesses the killing run away. He then searches the boat for a weapon and runs off after her after he finds a machete, without even considering the officer's gun still in its holster. Abby proceeds to make the exact same mistake later when she finds the dead officer (meaning there's danger nearby) and hears the girl screaming and runs in the direction of the screaming without taking the gun to protect herself.

Die Kette des Nebels - S1-E4

Stupidity: In the original, the knight of the Phoenix suddenly appeared during the arena fights interrupting the show and stealing the Gold Cloth. In this remake of the saga, Sienna/Saori Kido leaves the arena by plane during a bombardment that occurs way before Nero/Ikki arrives to steal the Cloth. There is no reason why she would fly off in her VTOL without bringing the Golden Cloth with her, then (there's a lot of time for that). Instead she leaves it for the 4 Saints for them to "protect it", against a whole army and on foot in the middle of the desert.

Mission: Incredible - S2-E8

Stupidity: When Bruce, Betty and She-Hulk are infiltrating Sea-Base, they do so by docking their submarine on top and sneaking in. For what is supposed to be a top secret S.H.I.E.L.D. base, they surprisingly have no security measures - such as cameras and sensors - to detect when an outside force is in the vicinity.

Living Hell - S1-E8

Stupidity: When the villain reveals to the doctor that he plans to transplant her brain into his own head, the doctor tells him it isn't possible because the brain can't survive outside the head. Forgetting to mention the fact that he will die the instant he takes his own brain out, making it rather difficult to complete the procedure, that is, if he didn't pass out from the pain of opening up his own skull first.

Sticks & Stones - S1-E4

Stupidity: In the flashback, Emily's sister takes ill while playing her flute. In the next scene, the sister is sick in bed and Emily now has the morpher around her neck, but she is in the exact same outfit. If the sister was forced to pass the legacy on due to disease, it should have taken more than just a few minutes or even hours to learn that.

An Unexpected Enemy - S4-E7

Stupidity: Just after the gas station explodes, Joey thinks to himself, "Oh no, Mai," thinking that she was caught up in the explosion. However, at the time of the explosion, Mai was driving away on a motorbike and was nowhere near the gas station, so he had no reason to think she was affected by the explosion. (00:06:07)
