The Alchemy Murder Case File 3 - S1-E8

Plot hole: The locked room mystery is original, but besides the fact that it requires melting part of a door on the spot and being able to repair it absolutely flawlessly so that nobody would notice any bump and discolouring and irregularity when they check the lock later investigating the murder, it also requires them to do it in total silence so the other guests don't notice, and part of the process shown involved cutting through it with a screwdriver and bashing it with a hammer - they show that and there's even a loud sound effect for it.

Plot hole: After Jack's wife disappears for a couple of days, he receives a call from her cell phone from the cab driver who found it. Jack arranges to pick it up from a hotel. After he picks up the phone, its battery dies as he checks it, at 12:13pm. In the next scene with Jack, he's in a bar with the phone plugged into a charger; when it comes on, he checks it - the battery shows 3%, but the time is 9:13pm. He apparently wasted 9 hours when he's in pursuit of his wife's mysterious disappearance before plugging in the phone. A scene later, the time is now just a minute later at 9:14pm but the battery is now charged to 79%. (00:37:25 - 00:40:45)
