Corrected entry: Throughout the entire movie, whenever Elliot's mood ring is visible, regardless of the level of stress he's under, his ring is always navy blue, which denotes calm and happiness.

Corrected entry: Mrs. Jones dies from the toxin even though she has stayed apart from the three people who are staying at her home and is some distance from them when she begins to show symptoms. The other three find themselves separated, two in the spring house, the other in the house. Although none is in anything like a sealed environment when Mrs. Jones dies - indeed, she smashes in several windows, which would have exposed Mark Wahlberg - none of the others is affected. Wahlberg observed the toxin affecting Mrs. Jones firsthand, and the speaking tube connecting the house with the spring house would have carried the toxin just as well as it did his voice.
Correction: The toxin is emenated from the plants in waves, and after a dose has been released, it takes a little while to replenish. When Mrs. Jones was poisoned, she was standing outside, alone, surrounded by plants. It took a little while before she started to smash in the windows, and by this time the remining toxin in the air had dissolved or blown away. It is around the same time the plants start to break of their attack, and stops releasing toxin altogether, so the characters are safe in their shelters (even if they don't know it).

Correction: That's because mood rings don't really work. They are based on a theory that body temperature rises with emotion, such as stress or fright, which has been proven untrue. Changes in air temperature have a much larger effect on the liquid inside a mood ring than the insignificant changes in your skin.
