Andy's Ancestry - S9-E3

Continuity mistake: Nellie and Pam are driving along, discussing what to make up about people's ancestry. Here, we see the same background go past Pam, a driveway with a black SUV on the right, and a white SUV on the left. This shot is only repeated in the angle where we can only see Pam, and the view out of the passenger side window. The car is driving along as normal, we see the two cars on the driveway, and then the car turns a corner, and we see the same shot all over again. (00:13:15)

The Boat - S9-E6

Revealing mistake: When Oscar is talking to the camera crew, and Kevin appears with his ice-cream falling, you can see his thumb having pushed the ice-cream scoop off the cone.

Knever

The Target - S9-E8

Revealing mistake: When Angela asks Dwight to meet in their old spot, she arrives to see him apparently naked. There is pixelation around his groin area, but you can still see that he's actually wearing flesh-coloured underwear. (00:18:05)

Ivan Paperman

Suit Warehouse - S9-E11

Character mistake: Erin is shown drinking an espresso in 5-25 "Café Disco". Later in the series in this episode, when Clark brings an espresso machine in that was given to him by Jan, everyone decides to try every flavor. In an interview Erin starts rambling but then remember the actual question she was asked, have you ever had an espresso before, she said she had not.

Suit Warehouse - S9-E11

Continuity mistake: They take a pledge to "We all drink them all" referring to the espresso flavors. Angela puts her hand on top of the pile and it flips between Oscar's hand and Stanley's hand under hers depending on the camera angle.

Customer Loyalty - S9-E12

Continuity mistake: At the end of the episode, we are shown a video of Dwight getting splashed with the milkshake from the point of view of the guys in the car. But it splashes differently the two times we see it. The first time it hits his lower body, and on the video, it hits him in his upper body.

The Farm - S9-E17

Continuity mistake: In the episode's intro, as Dwight's aunt died, he explains the Schrute custom of inviting someone or not, by throwing red dirt or black soil at the person's face. In the first shot, Dwight shows the red dirt bucket by lifting his left hand, but when the camera angle changes to the side, you can see his right hand is lifted up with the other bucket. The camera returns to the front as he is still lowering his left arm, and then he proceeds to lift the black soil bucket with the right arm. (00:00:48)

Alessandro Schiavo

Michael Scott: Yes. It is true. I, Michael Scott, am signing up with an online dating service. Thousands of people have done it, and I am going to do it. I need a username, and... I have a great one."Little Kid Lover." That way people will know exactly where my priorities are at.
