A Dark Knight: A Beautiful Darkness - S4-E13

Audio problem: Near the start, as Gordon tells the crook "how about you exercise your right to remain silent", the shot cuts and we can hear the audio from the different take which hasn't been spliced in properly. As a result the line actually is heard as "right to remain silent-silent."

Episode #3.3 - S3-E3

Audio problem: In a conversation with Colin, Zoƫ says "What is the point of it being able to do all this stuff if we can't see the results?" The camera then cuts away from her face, she continues "We need to find out who [name I won't embarrass myself by misspelling] is talking to." This line has been dubbed in, as it is said while the actress' face is off-screen and in a completely different tone of voice. (00:35:30)
