Continuity mistake: When Danny joins Hawkes at the crime scene, the victim's right false eyelash is lying across her cheek. While Hawkes takes photos, just as Danny says, "She might have just come from work," the victim's right false eyelash is gone, but then it reappears on her cheek in the same position as previous shots.

Visible crew/equipment: While Mac and Stella are speaking to Heather and Scott, the couple who reside in 9C, Scott tells them everything that transpired with the man from the elevator, and at the start of the flashback, a blue T-mark is visible on the floor. (00:31:05)
Chosen answer: Probably to broaden the scope of the show's plot and give the audience a chance to see the characters in a different setting, People act differently at home from the way they do at their workplace. By the ninth season, the characters would have become overly familiar and predictable. It gives the writers a chance to do something different with them.
