Continuity mistake: After Krypto comes around the fence we hear one of the two guys say "You got all the bags out of the truck, right?". The camera then pans over to the van and you can see, under the rear of the van, two gas containers. There is a metal one on the left and a plastic one on the right. Krypto starts to run for the truck and we see the containers again only now the metal one is on the right and the plastic one is on the left.
Continuity mistake: During the flashback that happens at the Luthor mansion, the one that starts with the cup shattering on the floor, young Lex is shown peeking through a slightly cracked open door. Just after Lionel asks the nanny to give him Julian there is a shot of Lex peeking in and you can see that he has hair on his forehead. Now Lex, at this point, would have been bald, as a result of the meteor shower in Smallville for several years and would have no hair at all on his head in this flashback. In fact when Lionel finally realizes that Lex is outside the door we see that Lex has no hair on his head.
Suggested correction: Lex is bald but still has eyebrows. There's never a shot of young Lex with hair on his head. You never even see his head when he's peeking, but you do see the hair from his eyebrows.
Audio problem: Towards the end of Lex telling Clark about his car, that it was stolen and returned, Lex says "Often that can be the test of a true friendship." After Lex's line the camera switches to show a reaction shot of Clark. In that shot, just before it switches back to Lex, you see Lex's mouth move as if he is saying something but there are no words heard.
Revealing mistake: Loder gets scared and tries to get away from Kara. He takes off down the road at a significant rate of speed. Kara uses her super speed to get in front of the car. Loder has to slam on his brakes to keep from hitting her. At the speed Loder was going at he should have either skidded to a stop or hit Kara with his car. Loder is able to stop his car without doing either.
Continuity mistake: As Lana is walking up the stairs to Clark's barn loft, from the front shot Clark has his hands to his side. When the camera jumps to behind Clark, watching Lana ascend the stairs as she says "I, uh, came by to say thank you." now Clark's right hand is behind his back and not to his side.
Continuity mistake: Martha is putting together a flower arrangement. When Jonathan is talking about Clark not eating the last piece of cherry pie, in a shot of Martha and Jonathan, Martha is picking up a branch of white flowers and holding it in front of her. When the shot switches to Clark, you can see her putting this same branch of white flowers in the vase even though she made no motion to do so in the previous shot. This is supposed to be continuous since you can hear Jonathan talking between the shots.
Audio problem: While talking about Tina Greer's suicide after Chloe says "lit a match" you can hear Pete say "okay" but you see his mouth doesn't move with the word.
Revealing mistake: When Tina puts the necklace on Clark to disable him, he falls to the ground of his barn. As he is lying there, his collar is very dark, and his shoulder is lit up. Since the source of the green light is supposed to be the necklace, his collar should be the brightest lit.
Continuity mistake: After Jonathan and Martha talk about Clark's new behavior in the porch, we see Lana at the Talon sprinkling something onto a drink. When Clark was still walking towards Lana we can see that the pointed part of the container Lana was holding was pointing up. Cut to a different angle and now the pointed part of the container Lana is holding is pointing down.
Continuity mistake: Fordman's, the store Whitney is helping his father run, is directly across the street from The Talon. The store has a big blue sign out front with "Fordman's" written in large white letters. After Lana steals Lex's car, she drives down the street and the store is nowhere to be seen on the other side of the street.
Continuity mistake: When Chloe puts the photo of Dr. Hamilton on his desk she puts it on a book next to his arm. After the shot changes he is shown picking up the photo but now it is half resting on his arm.
Continuity mistake: As Clark stands outside the room where Lex has just got his shock treatment the blood on his cheek is back even though his cheek wound was healed and he wiped any residual blood off in the previous scene at the power generator.
Continuity mistake: After Clark says "I'm not leaving." Jonathan starts to talk about the list of things Martha needed to get done. As Jonathan says this there is a camera switch. Before the switch Clark is next to the window turned toward his dad. After the switch Clark is now standing further back from the window behind Jonathan's right shoulder.
Continuity mistake: As Sean sucks electricity at the power station, his arms are bent in the first shot and fully extended in the next. (00:31:25)
Factual error: Lana is trying to find out what Lex is up to. She gets a hold of his briefcase and takes it to the mansion where she shoots the locks off the case. When she does the case jumps a little bit but this is far less than it should. She is shooting at it from less than a foot away. The force of the bullet should have sent that case sliding across the desk at that range. (00:15:35)
Continuity mistake: Just before Clark gets the call from Lana we see inside the trunk of Pete's car. At this point there is a coiled rope in the trunk turned parallel to the rear of the car. When Pete gets the rope for Clark a little later the rope is turned perpendicular to the rear of the car.
Factual error: The last scene is said to be set in "Iguazú Falls - Patagonia, Argentina." Iguazú Falls are nowhere near Patagonia. (00:40:00)
