Continuity mistake: In the opening scene with Michelle driving, there is a wide shot of the dash board, and you can see the pointer is on fifty-eight mph. Then in the next close up of the low fuel signal, the pointer is no longer there. (00:03:05)

Continuity mistake: When Natalie is in the car, she is unaware that tied to the back is rope which is also hanging Damon from the tree. When she reverses, this causes him to crash into the windshield. However between shots the way he is falling and the way he lands is inconsistent. (00:29:55)

Revealing mistake: When Natalie is in the old building and she is looking around, she opens the door and Parker's dead body falls out onto the floor. When it cuts to a close up of his body, you can clearly see the side of his neck pulsating although he is dead. (01:19:50)

Continuity mistake: When Tosh is on the computer she is in a Gothic chat room. As she types her first message you can see it is for the entire room. But as the shot changes it is now for just one user. It happens too fast for it to be a technological intervention. (00:36:20)
