Continuity mistake: When the Charmed Ones decide to try to vanquish Cole, Paige says that the newest potions they mixed should work, since they're "at least as strong as the ones [they] used on the Source." But they never used any potions that had an effect on the Source. (00:34:50)

Continuity mistake: In the scene where Phoebe dangles the slumlord from the roof, the TransAmerica Pyramid can be seen behind Phoebe and Cole. A subsequent shot, after Phoebe tosses the slumlord back onto the roof, is take from the opposite side, but the TransAmerica Pyramid is still behind them, and is much closer. (00:25:25)

Passions (1999)
Character mistake: At the end of April and the beginning of May in 2004, Luis was decoding the CDs with the Crane secrets on them. For an extended period of time, Luis left the CDs completely unattended at Hank's house. Luis told several different people that the computer was decoding the CDs and didn't need anybody there to do it. Given that Alistair is virtually omniscient in Harmony, it's ridiculous that he didn't break into Hank's apartment and take the CDs.

Passions (1999)
Plot hole: The week of 5/3/04, Kay ruined the dress that Charity designed by changing the measurements before Charity actually made the dress. But the timeline made no sense at all. Charity and Miguel were talking about the dress and the fashion industry in the backyard until after it became dark, which in New England in May means that it was at least 8pm. Charity didn't start making the dress until after that. But how late could the Founder's Day Dance be starting that Charity has time to make an entire dress for it after 8pm?

Passions (1999)
Plot hole: On 5/3/04, Liz followed T.C. into his shed and saw that it contains the car that he was driving on the night of his accident. A year ago, Liz stole T.C.'s key and looked into the shed for herself, and was shocked by what she saw. But when she went in with T.C., she had to ask what that car was, because she barely knew anything about his accident, which is the truth. So why was Liz so shocked to see a car with a big dent in it? That's a very normal thing to see in a shed, I would think.

Passions (1999)
Plot hole: On 4/30/04, T.C. went into his shed and Liz was behind him and saw inside. T.C. just turned the knob and the door opened right up, so it definitely wasn't locked. But the shed is always locked; that's why nobody else has ever seen inside.

Days of Our Lives (1965)
Factual error: The weeks of 4/26/04 and 5/3/04, Marlena willingly went under the influence of sodium pentathol so that she could remember the killings and confess to them. But sodium pentathol does not restore repressed memories. It can be used to cause someone to speak against their will, but only about things of which they are cognizant.

Charmed (1998)
Revealing mistake: In the teaser, when Leo levitates to hang a picture, he has a major wedgie and the ankles of his pants hike up to mid-shin due to the harness that is used for the levitation effect.

Passions (1999)
Continuity mistake: On 4/30/04, Even and Julian were talking in the park. Eve told Julian not to protect her by confessing falsely to raping her, in part because T.C. would kill him before he could even be put in prison for his other crimes. It was full daylight. The next time we saw them, Julian was making his immediate response to that statement, pointing out that T.C. wouldn't have a chance to get near him. But it was pitch black, even though only a few moments had passed.

Days of Our Lives (1965)
Continuity mistake: On 4/28/04, Mickey called Julie, "Julie Horton Williams." But that's not Julie's name. Her maiden name was Olsen, not Horton. Although she is a member of the Horton family, "Horton" has never been a part of her name.

Charmed (1998)
Continuity mistake: The name plate under the photo of Leo at the Veterans Association indicates that he died on November 24, 1942. Paige's research indicates that Nathan and Rick both died on the same day as Leo, but she later finds out that they were buried at the V.A. on November 22, 1942, two days before they are supposed to have died.

Days of Our Lives (1965)
Plot hole: Whenever John moved at all towards Marlena during the exorcism on 4/20/04, Father Jansen ordered him back right away. But when Marlena calls for Belle and Belle kneels right in front of her mother, Father Jansen doesn't say anything. The only reason is so that the scene's drama can be increased when Marlena begins to strangle Belle.
20th Apr 2004
Days of Our Lives (1965)
Plot hole: On 4/16/04 and 4/19/04, John told Marlena that he had an idea that could prove Marlena's innocence, but could also potentially be fatal. Then, on 4/20/04, John acted surprised and upset when he learned that Father Jansen's possession test could have killed Marlena. But John was previously a priest - he even exorcised Marlena when she was possessed in 1995 - and definitely seemed to know that the procedure could be deadly, so his shocked disposition makes no sense.

Days of Our Lives (1965)
Continuity mistake: On 4/16/04, Belle mentions that she felt particularly close to the late Alice Horton, because she "never had a grandmother in [her] life." But although she has never been seen on-screen, the show has always indicated that Marlena's mother was still living. Marlena has visited her parents in Colorado, and her son Eric is supposed to be living with them. Recently, Belle even made hot cocoa for her mother, saying that she would do it the same way as "Grandma Evans."

Charmed (1998)
Continuity mistake: In the teaser, Phoebe has a vision of a murder. When she first sees the shadow of the attack, the assailant is holding his victim down with his right hand while stabbing with his left. Then when the vision focuses on the Medusa head tattoo on his forearm, it is the right arm that is stabbing. (00:04:15)

Charmed (1998)
Continuity mistake: After Phoebe jump kicks a warlock and falls to the ground, there is a blonde woman standing next to them. In the next shot of the warlock, when Piper blows him up, the woman is gone. But all of the mortals had been frozen, so she couldn't have moved. (00:37:40)

Charmed (1998)
Continuity mistake: Near the end of the episode, in the scene at P3, Phoebe launched a jump kick at a warlock after Paige has been knocked down by a small energy ball. Everybody else in the club was frozen by Piper, but when Phoebe lands she jostles a blonde extra who moves from her pose.
18th Apr 2004
Charmed (1998)
Continuity mistake: Paige looks in the Book of Shadows and suggests that the demon they are looking for could be Belthazor, not knowing that Belthazor is Cole's demonic form. But we saw Phoebe making extensive changes to Belthazor's entry in the Book of Shadows in a previous episode, and the changes are not in evidence here. (00:01:40)
18th Apr 2004
Charmed (1998)
Plot hole: Piper is initially skeptical at Phoebe's theory that the Evil Enchantress could be Paige in a past life, because Paige lacks the Enchantress' ability to summon the elements. However, Piper knows that in Phoebe's past life she had a pyrokinetic power, which she does not have in the present.
Upvote valid corrections to help move entries into the corrections section.
Suggested correction: This is not a correction, more of an observation that goes with this plot hole. In season 2 episode 14 'Pardon My Past' Leo explains to the sisters that Phoebe had her active powers taken away, because her past self had used them for evil, but yet the Enchantress does the same with her powers, and Paige still has active powers. It took two years for Phoebe fighting as a good witch to actually gain an active power again, and then it was only levitating. Becoming an empath took seven years. So that doesn't really make sense that Phoebe would be punished for her past self actions and Paige was not.
Possibly Paige had past lives in between the one we saw and the present one. So she could have already atoned for the evil past life in another past life.
Also Paige's active power comes from her Whitelighter side not her witch side, she doesn't have any active witch powers.
Paige's active power comes from her whitelighter heritage, so like Chris and Wyatt, she doesn't have an active witch power, so this active power has nothing to do with her Wiccan heritage and past life as the enchantress.
