Corrected entry: Pepper is in hospital with an IV line in her arm. A nurse comes in and injects a drug into the line. The problem is: The nurse doesn't kink the line above where she injects, which means the drug can go up the line and into the IV bag as well as going down the line. When a drug is ordered IV, the doctor who ordered the drug wants it to go in quickly, not slowly from the bag or upper tubing.

Corrected entry: When Don Cheadle gets out of a car filled with men, he takes a pump action gun and pumps it, then a man takes the gun and also pumps it - pointless after Don already did it - which would mean an unused shell should have been ejected, but it wasn't.
Correction: There is a scene showing a shotgun pumped twice, however the shell does eject. But, there is no scene remotely close to what you describe occurring with Don Cheadle (Iron Patriot). Please clarify when it occurs.

Correction: IV lines have reflux valves. You never have to "kink" the line for the medication to go only to the patient. Secondly she's not in a hospital, she's imprisoned at a ship yard, so there isn't a doctor or a nurse. Just a guy in a collared shirt and pants. Lastly "the doctor" doesn't want you to bolus (push in quickly) all medications, eg. Adenosine should be pushed over 6 min. If you bolus adenosine it will stop your heart. Pain medications are pushed in over 2 min, and usually bolused in to the IV line port (which again does not need to be kinked) The dripping IV fluid will push it in slowly, preventing that head rush junkies love.
