Episode #2.1 - S2-E1

Continuity mistake: When Kim Neville answers Richard's first question ("Almost a year"), she has her hand in front of her lips in the view from behind, hands on her lap in the fuller view later. This continuity gap keeps happening also at the end of the scene before Fidel arrives. (00:10:30)

Episode #2.5 - S2-E5

Continuity mistake: In the beginning the man who takes care of food and drinks hurt his fingers. Only in the last scene we see that he has bandages around the hurt fingers for the first time.

Suggested correction: I thought the same but actually he wears the correct bandage in the scenes after the murder, all the time. The tape is hard to spot because of the color and is not in frame a lot, but in the scene when he is back on the boat "for the knives" you can spot the tape at minute 21, when he says "Except for the cocktails she was drinking", and in the crab scene he is also sporting the bandage.

Episode #2.5 - S2-E5

Continuity mistake: Fidel and Dwayne are enlisting the help of the stoner guy (who just happens to be there where they need him in a gigantic coincidence!). When he asks them if then he can be a policeman, Dwayne sends him off; his arm is above/at level with his shoulder but at the cut it is not in frame. (00:33:25)

Episode #2.7 - S2-E7

Continuity mistake: When Fidel and Dwayne arrive at the place where Camille and Richard are hiding for the hurricane, they can open the doors without a problem, whereas Camille and Richard had taken great care of locking the doors from the inside.

Man Overboard: Part 2 - S6-E6

DI Jack Mooney: My grandfather told me a story once, about these two wolves fighting inside all of us. And one of them is anger, envy, self-pity, regret. The other one is love, truth, faith, hope, that sort of thing.
And I asked him "which one of the wolves would win?" And do you know what he said?
"The one you feed."
