Two Pair - S1-E16

Continuity mistake: Harrison and Melissa are in a poker game. In the scene where her flush beats his pair of fives, they each have the eight of spades in their hand.

Plot hole: On April 1, 2004, Marlena fell over the penthouse balcony and landed directly on Sami. The next week, everybody was talking about how Lucas saved Sami's life by pushing her out of the way of Marlena. But this makes no sense, as the collision couldn't possibly have been any worse than it was. So what exactly does everybody think Lucas did?

Size Matters - S4-E5

Continuity mistake: Piper suggests that Paige orb in place, because the clay is still wet enough that it will collapse if she's not there to support it. But when Paige actually does orb, the clay cracks and collapses into powder as if it had been bone dry.

Size Matters - S4-E5

Continuity mistake: Shortly after Phoebe frees the blonde girl from the clay, she tells her to run "before Gammill sees [them]." But Phoebe hadn't learned the demon's name at any point. Leo and Piper do find out his name, but not until later. (00:20:00)

Look Who's Barking - S3-E21

Continuity mistake: When Phoebe and Prue look in the Book of Shadows for the spell to summon Belthazor, it is written with the same artistic calligraphy as the rest of the Book. But this spell was written by the sisters themselves in episode 3-8: "Sleuthing With the Enemy." As a result, it should have a handwritten appearance similar to the pages Phoebe was working on at the beginning of this episode.

Hyde School Reunion - S6-E17

Plot hole: Rick is menacing Phoebe with a gun near the end of the episode. Why doesn't Paige orb the gun away from him? In fact, why did Phoebe make Piper stay upstairs? Piper could have frozen Rick, and Paige could have orbed him back to the prison. There were several obvious ways to resolve this situation that would not have caused Rick's death.

Sin Francisco - S3-E18

Continuity mistake: When Prue talks to Piper after stopping her phone conversation, she tells her that "the Sin Balls work a lot faster than [they] thought. Once infected, the victim only has a few hours before it drives them to total self-destruction." However, this is almost verbatim what was written in the Book of Shadows. It could be easily read by the viewing audience when the book entry was shown. So all three sisters should already know this.

Daddy's Girl - S1-E14

Plot hole: Richard tells Tru that Carl periodically comes around threatening to exact revenge on him unless he pays him off. The audience eventually finds out that Richard hired Carl to kill his first wife, so it makes sense that Carl can demand money from Richard and not face any consequences. But why does the story make sense to Tru? The way Richard told it, Carl has nothing on him, so there's no reason for him to be paying him off. Tru should ask her father why he doesn't simply get a restraining order.

Bride and Gloom - S3-E13

Revealing mistake: When Prue talks about her relationship with Justin near the beginning of the episode, she says that she finds him to be very predictable, lacking in mystery or "savoir-faire." That doesn't make sense, though, as "savoir-faire" means "know-how." She probably meant "je ne sais quoi," that is, "I know not what."

Good Times With Weapons - S8-E1

Continuity mistake: In the town hall meeting scene, a man says that he is "shocked and appalled" by what has happened. In the wide shot, he is sitting next to Liane Cartman. In the closeup, Liane is replaced by a woman dressed in purple. In the next wide shot, Liane is back.

Continuity mistake: Victor and Doug were both murdered on the night of Valentine's Day, which on the show lasted until the 3/11/04 episode. The next day started on 3/12/04, and turned out to be St. Patrick's Day when we saw Rex and Philip enjoying green beer at the Cheatin's Heart. We know that it was supposed to be the very next day, because characters talked about the murders that happened "last night." But the two holidays, shown here on sequential days, actually fall on February 14 and March 17, respectively.

Plot hole: After Rex learned that he was not really a DiMera but in fact a Brady, he suddenly became "poor." But a lot of things don't add up. Firstly, after Tony died, there was never a funeral or a will reading shown, but it seems likely that the twins would have been left something. Secondly, Rex graduated from college in the spring of 2003 and is an incredible genius who invented a laser that turns coal into diamonds. So although he might be on his own financially, he should be able to get a pretty good job without much trouble, but there's no indication that he has even tried. But Rex being poor has instead become a significant plot device, because Bonnie does not want him to marry her daughter Mimi as a direct result of it.

Continuity mistake: On 3/16/04, in John's hypnosis-induced vision, he reacted violently against the idea that Marlena might be the "Salem Slasher." But the serial killer has always been called either the "Salem Stalker" or just the "Salem Serial Killer." The Salem Slasher was actually the name used when Andre DiMera went on a killing spree in 1984.

Continuity mistake: In October, 2003, when the police and an ambulance were dispatched to Mickey and Maggie's house when the latter was being murdered, the address was 1313 Mockingbird Lane. But on 3/15/04, Mickey's return address on an envelope was 502 Riverside Drive.

Plot hole: After Doug was murdered, Belle told Shawn that Marlena could not have done it because she was with her at the time, which is a lie. Shawn believes her, though, thus quelling his suspicions that Marlena could be the killer. But there's one small problem. Shawn was with Belle on the balcony on 3/5/03 when he received his father's emergency page, leading him to call Bo and learn that his grandfather had been murdered. So there's no way Belle could claim to have been with her mother when the murder occurred; Shawn was with Belle himself.

Continuity mistake: On 3/11/04, Marlena mentioned that Shawn Douglas is twenty one years old. But that's not in keeping with either of his timelines. He was really born on April 6, 1987, so he should only be sixteen right now. But he was aged previously, and graduated from high school at age eighteen in 2002. Even so, he should still be only twenty at most right now, and more likely nineteen if he still has the same birthday.

Continuity mistake: In March, 2004, Jan Spears was at the Kiriakis mansion after she murdered Victor, and at some point her hair suddenly went from being curly to being completely straight.

Continuity mistake: On March 10 and 11, 2004, a group of characters sings an original song, "Shugga Shugga Shugga," on the stage of the Blue Note. The song plays as background through numerous scenes, and lasts for more than twenty minutes. But the same two or three verses were simply played over and over again. In fact, the song is available on the show's website, and is not even five minutes long.

Revealing mistake: On 3/3/04, Rebecca had a flier for the benefit concert at the Blue Note. Above a picture of Whitney, it boldly advertises a "Benifit." Notice the misspelling.

Plot hole: Why has nobody investigated where all of this dramatic blood comes from? Kate's wedding cake was full of blood, blood was poured on Tony, and the flowers at Tuscany had been dipped in blood on Valentine's Day. Yet the origin of this blood was never explained.
