Revealing mistake: Right after baby Estella is born there is no umbilical cord.
Cruella (2021)
1 revealing mistake
Directed by: Craig Gillespie
Starring: Emma Thompson, Emma Stone, Mark Strong, Paul Walter Hauser
Continuity mistake: In the scene about the upcoming show the Baroness states she needs 12 key looks. She turns to count what she has and pulls down 10 looks that fill the board. When she turns back to face the staff she comments on the need for 10 looks.
Baroness: Let me give you some advice. You can't care about anyone. Everyone else is an obstacle. You care about what an obstacle wants or feels, you're dead. If I cared about anyone or thing, I might have died like so many brilliant women with a drawer full of unseen genius and a heart full of sad bitterness. You have the talent for your own label. Whether you have the killer instinct is the big question.
Trivia: Once the ending credits roll, there is an extra scene where Pongo and Perdita (the Dalmatians) are delivered to the lawyer Roger and reporter Anita respectively as gifts from Cruella. Roger sings the famous Cruella DeVille song from the original Disney movie.

Answer: The Baroness probably thought that if she gave Estella's adoptive mother money and help that time, she would keep asking for more and more money under threat of revealing the secret that the Baroness was the girl's real mother. Killing her meant one less person who knew her secret and could hold it over her.
