The Pink Panther Strikes Again

Continuity mistake: During Oktoberfest when Clouseau is being followed by assassins, one has metal spikes in his chest. They change lengths during the scene. They're longer toward the end of the sequence.

Continuity mistake: During the scene when the U.N. building is disappearing, the top of the building changes. Notice in the other shots, there is some sort of structure atop the building. It is see-through. When we see the effect happen, that structure is gone.

Continuity mistake: When Clouseau is on the front page of the newspaper after being arrested in the Soho club the date on the front of the newspaper is Monday July 12th, but two other events in this film are in October, the beer festival and the disappearance of the UN building. The events of the film don't cover that long a timespan.

Continuity mistake: During Clouseau's visit to the asylum, when a completely soaked Dreyfus finally climbs out of the pond, his clothes have only partially wet patches before he sits on the bench and then they're soaked again.

Question: Does the ray that hits Drefus at the end kill him, or does it just turn him invisible?

Answer: Just Invisible. Besides the fact that his eyeball and eyelid remain intact and in the same position, he returns in a full, visible form (possibly in a film logic borrowed from Looney Tunes cartoons) in the next Panther film.
