Prodigy - S1-E7

Continuity mistake: When Tanaka shows the picture of Jude as a newborn, the person seated nearest to Max is a blonde woman in a black suit. When Jude goes to play the piano, there is a man in a white lab coat sitting there. Max is sitting on the aisle and if someone came to switch seats they would pass in front of her; no one did. The man sticks around for a few shots, but when Lydecker sits next to Max the blonde woman is back. (00:08:50 - 00:10:00)

Season 2 generally

Factual error: A major plot point for this season is that Max's genome has no "junk DNA." Instead, it's all coded for something. A standard human genome has about 95% junk DNA, with the remaining 5% coded for building proteins. However, research from the 1980s and 1990s indicates that junk DNA isn't junk at all, but rather explicit instructions to the cell on when and how to read the protein-building instructions. If Max doesn't have that, then her cells would never be able to build proteins and she would never have been born. Even though Max has extra coded DNA for an unknown purpose, there is still no way she could live without "junk DNA".

Normal: Well, well, well... so far, your moron colleagues have come up with the following excuses for why you're strolling in here at the crack of noon - you had a dental emergency, your aunt died... again, and my personal favorite from this idiot - you were detained by the sector police for practicing witchcraft. Now, would you care to further insult my intelligence?
Max Guevara: I overslept.
