Continuity mistake: Elizabeth walks away from the security brief and puts her arm on the wall. When David approaches her, her arm is still on the wall. When the camera changes to the front angle, her arm is not on the wall any more. This is an instant cut. (00:06:30)
Visible crew/equipment: Just after Kevin is executed, you see the assassin walk off to screen left. However you see movement in the rear view mirror of the car on the far right hand side of the screen, evidently a crew member since everyone has been killed. (00:27:15)
Other mistake: When Jack sits down in room 2, his watch says 2:50, despite the time being 1:05. His watch is correct in other scenes so it's not that it's set wrong or broken. (00:05:00)
Audio problem: When Jack and Rick are talking in the water tower, a lot of the audio in that scene is either out of alignment or overdubbed. Easiest to spot is when Jack is checking Rick's wound. (00:10:30)
11:00 A.M.-12:00 Noon - S1-E12
Visible crew/equipment: When David tells his associate that he spoke to the therapist, there is a white stage light reflected in the associate's glasses. (00:10:20)
11:00 A.M.-12:00 Noon - S1-E12
Continuity mistake: Jack spits in Kevin's face to clear some of the blood. Between camera angles his face gets a lot cleaner instantly. (00:07:50)
10:00 A.M.-11:00 A.M. - S1-E11
Visible crew/equipment: When Jack arrives in the storm drain he opens the limo door and filming equipment is reflected in the window. Can't be anything else as there is nothing by the limo. (00:11:50)
Visible crew/equipment: Teri attacks Rick - the camera pans behind a pillar and the camera shadow can be seen on it. (00:20:35)
Visible crew/equipment: When we see Nina at the start (in the split screens) watch the bottom window and you will see a panning shot that swaps from her left side to her right. In this shot you can see the camera shadow across her back. (00:01:50)
Continuity mistake: When Dan's body is put in the grave, his shirt is only slightly raised up his chest. When they start filling the grave in, his shirt is raised a lot higher. (00:37:00)
Audio problem: Alan gives Teri the address near the end and says they should tell the police. Teri responds that "Jack is the police" however this line is a clear overdub as the audio is completely different to the rest of the scene. (00:36:50)
Continuity mistake: When Mrs Palmer is walking towards the senator, she has her left arm outstretched in the front shot and not in the rear shot. (00:15:00)
Continuity mistake: Dan is shot at chest height in the previous episode. In this episode the gunshot is to the head. (00:04:20)
Visible crew/equipment: When David is talking to his daughter, just after the remark about there being nothing to worry about, a camera moves into shot on the right hand side of the screen. (00:08:50)
Revealing mistake: When Dan is shot at the end, you can see protective equipment under his shirt as he falls back. (00:40:40)
Continuity mistake: When Alan tells Teri he will stay with her until they find Kim, Teri's bag strap falls off her shoulder. Camera changes and the strap is back up on her shoulder. (00:32:30)
Continuity mistake: When Teri is talking to Alan about Kim failing Algebra, she has her hand on her bag in one shot and on her coffee in the next. (00:31:40)
Continuity mistake: When Alan gets out the car to ask the cop to speed things up his car door is open or closed depending on the shot. (00:15:15)
Visible crew/equipment: As Kim runs over to her friend at the end, a camera shadow can be seen on her arm. (00:41:00)
Continuity mistake: When Richard is shot and on the floor, there is a blood blob above his shirt pocket that keeps disappearing and reappearing. (00:35:10)
Answer: According to Jack in season 5, Nina was "deep cover" before the pair ever met, so it's safe to assume she was recruited before she joined CTU. As for what her primary mission was, who knows? Perhaps it was to gather sensitive intel and pass it on to her superiors. Given that she worked for an intelligence agency, it's not a stretch. Or perhaps we may find out in season seven.
