Continuity mistake: As Clark walks into his grandfather's motel room, his hands are behind his back. He turns to face his grandfather and both hands are now in front of him holding the photo album. The next shot shows him in the foreground raising his left arm from his side to hold the album. (00:31:30)
Continuity mistake: Clark tells his parents that he went to see his grandfather and that he asks to give the cashiers check to his mom.

Continuity mistake: When Chrissy kisses Troy in the beginning on the episode, it takes him a few minutes to age and die. Later in the episode, she kisses Russell and in a matter of seconds he is old and gray.
Suggested correction: When she kisses Russell, she kisses him longer than she did Troy. We even see him age faster the longer she kisses him, indicating the length of time she spends absorbing someone's youth, the faster they age and die.

Cut to Jonathan's viewpoint and now Martha is just supporting Clark and her left arm is no longer around Clark.
Continuity mistake: Lionel press conference about Lex's kidnapping only infuriates Rachel. She then picks up an axe and was about to swing at the tied up Lex when he manages to get his right leg free and kick Rachel backwards.
