Plot hole: On 9/29/04, Lexie called Brady to tell him that his father, John, was missing and presumed dead. She made the call from a pay phone in the hospital lobby. But why would Lexie make such a sensitive call from a public place, when she has an office?

Continuity mistake: On 9/17/04, when Sami, Lucas, and Will went to the Chinese restaurant, a pan of the room initially showed that Kate was sitting far away from them. Later, when Kate heard Sami speaking, she turned around to peer through the plants lining the ledge above her seat, and Sami was sitting right there, much closer than she had been before.

Continuity mistake: On 9/17/04, Patrick had very heavy stubble over most of his face the whole time he was hanging from the cliff. Then, after he fell into the river he was clean-shaven.

Plot hole: On 9/14/04, Hope tells Patrick that Billie Reed is the only person who has ever come between her and Bo. But that statement is more than a little ridiculous. Stefano DiMera, Princess Gina, Megan Hathaway, Larry Welch, and John Black have all come between Bo and Hope.

Plot hole: During the week of 9/6/04, Patrick delivered Jennifer's baby, and wrapped the infant in his own red shirt. Eventually, the baby was wrapped in a receiving blanket, and Patrick was wearing the red shirt again. But a newborn baby had been swaddled in that shirt, meaning that it should have been revoltingly unwearable.

Continuity mistake: On 9/7/04, Dr. Bhalla is surprised to hear that Rex is "not a wealthy DiMera after all," but rather a "blue collar Brady." In fact, Dr. Bhalla's response is, "I had no idea." But just a few scenes earlier, when Dr. Bhalla entered Rex's loft, he greeted him as "Rex Brady." If Dr. Bhalla didn't know about Rex's parentage, then he should have called him "Rex DiMera," the name Rex used when he was a student at Salem University.

Continuity mistake: On 9/7/04, John and Bo place a shiny metal paperweight on their map, and the name of the island, "MELASWEN," is reflected as "NEWSALEM," for "New Salem." But even though "MELASWEN" is indeed "NEWSALEM" backwards, the first word would not actually reflect legibly as the second. The letters E, L, S, and N should appear backwards.

Continuity mistake: The bathroom in Belle's penthouse underwent a bit of unexplained remodeling. In March of 2004, when Jan tried to electrocute Belle, Belle was taking a bath in a freestanding tub in the middle of the room. Later that year, after Philip had moved in, the bathroom had a regular shower and the room wasn't even large enough to have accomodated the tub we had seen before.

Plot hole: On 8/9/04, Patrick told Hope that she would be able to jam the force field by "hitting the keys in an even and then an odd number sequence." This phrase is completely meaningless, but it is all the information that Patrick gave Hope about the keypad, which we had previously seen was a regular nine (or ten) digit keypad. And yet, Hope was able to get back through.

Stupidity: On 8/12/04, Hope specifically told everyone that when the coin was thrown into the force field, there would be a bright flash and that they shouldn't look at the forcefield when this was done. But all three times that the coin was thrown at the force field that day and the next, everyone looked right at it the whole time, and then recoiled in pain at the flash that inevitably occurred.

Other mistake: On 7/26/04, Brady expresses displeasure at the decision made by "[his] so-called half-brothers, Bo and Philip." But Bo and Philip are the half-brothers of his late mother, Isabella, making them his uncles.

Plot hole: On 7/16/04, Mimi heard on the radio that her brother Patrick was dead, and then she went to Alice's and told her mother Bonnie. But the news never releases the names of victims of any type of fatal event before the family has been notified, so Mimi never should have heard news like that on the radio.

Continuity mistake: On 7/13/04, Jan Spears was at Belle's loft as an invited guest for the first time. She walked straight back from the front door to the opposite wall and opened the window there. Mimi, sitting in a window at Rex's loft, saw Jan and reacted with great alarm. But Rex's loft is directly across the hall from Belle's, so there is no way that any window in his loft would be within sight of Belle's back window.

Plot hole: On 7/8/04, Belle listened to her answering machine messages, hoping that Shawn may have called her. Her outgoing message was, "This is Belle. You know what to do. If this is Shawn, please call me." That doesn't make any sense. If Shawn is hearing that message, then he has indeed called her and doesn't need to be told to do so. And if he doesn't call, he will never hear the message asking him to call.

Plot hole: Belle, Philip, and especially Mimi have been concerned about paying the rent on the loft over the course of their living there in various combinations in 2003-2004. However, when Brady first moved in there in 2002, it was stated that his and Belle's father, John Black, owned the loft. So nobody should have to pay rent on it at all.

Continuity mistake: On 5/17/04, Jan removed her "Mrs. B." costume and revealed herself to Shawn. The camera was off her for a moment, and when it returned she was holding a wig and a prosthetic nose. But the wig was much darker than the powdered grey hair she had as Mrs. B., and removing the nose doesn't account from the elaborate facial makeup she had been wearing that completely vanished while the camera was on Shawn.

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.

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.

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.

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.
