Trojan Horse - S4-E23

Continuity mistake: When Gibbs rejects the agent's file, Cynthia reaches for the ringing telephone with her right hand and Gibbs stops her with his left hand, but in the closeup Gibbs has his right hand on Cynthia's left hand. The closeup is a flipped shot, note their watches. (00:03:05)

Super Grover

Trojan Horse - S4-E23

Continuity mistake: When Tony tells Ziva he won't help her track down the remaining 'Smiths', a woman in the background is walking down the stairs; as Tony stands up, she takes two steps down from the lower landing. When the camera shot changes on Tony, she's back on the landing. (00:25:15)

Angel of Death - S4-E24

Factual error: When McGee is tracing the who sent the request for the polygraphs, the map bounces around the world. When he says Kurdistan, the map shows Armenia, and when it hits the Dominican Republic, McGee says Puerto Rico. (00:26:50)

Bury Your Dead - S5-E1

Continuity mistake: During season 4 when Ziva gets worried about Tony being 'sick', she is researching y. Pestis, and telling Gibbs how worried she is about Tony having tests and the long-term effects of plague. In season 5, first episode, when Ducky comes to tell the group that the body is not Tony because "he didn't have plague", Ziva looks confused and says "before my time?"

Family - S5-E2

Factual error: The airbag deploys after several seconds. Airbags go off instantaneously to protect people. Not wait 4 or 5 seconds then go off. (00:03:40)

Family - S5-E2

Visible crew/equipment: As Gibbs, Ziva and Tony enter the Nelson home with guns drawn; just after Ziva enters, a man can be seen reflected in the door's window (Gibbs and Tony are in frame, and there is no other character there). Tony enters, then Gibbs - and we see the cameraman reflected also. (00:19:45)
