An Open Book - S1-E5

Continuity mistake: When Nate and Brenda are arguing, just after Brenda sits in the chair, we see from behind that her left hand which is holding a cigarette is held up by her face. The shot cuts to a view from in front and her hand is instantly in her lap.

The Trip - S1-E11

Continuity mistake: When Brenda and Billy are arguing in the casino, the shoulder strap of Brenda's handbag moves from tucked under her collar in the close ups, to sitting halfway along her shoulder in the long shots.

Knock, Knock - S1-E13

Other mistake: Nate has his pager with him when sitting his exam paper. The pager goes off and he takes it from his pocket and reads a message without any comment from the exam invigilator.

Brenda: The future is just a fucking concept that we use to avoid living today.

Season 4 generally

Trivia: In the promos for season 4 you see the characters shopping in a small grocery store to the song "Feeling Good" by Nina Simone. This is a tribute to a scene in the movie "Point of No Return" where Bridgette Fonda's character does the same thing.

Show generally

Question: At the end of the last ever episode, when Claire is taking the family photo, Nate whispers in her ear 'You can't take a picture unless it's already gone.' What does he mean by that?

Answer: Nate actually say "You can't take a picture of this, it's already gone." It's kinda hard to explain, but he's referring to the fact that the moment Claire wants to take a picture of is over already, and she can't take a photo of it, just a different, lesser moment.
