Visible crew/equipment: After McGee tells Gibbs that he overheard the mention of "Paraguay" during the private conversation between Ziva and Gibbs, when it cuts to the next shot just as Ducky joins Kasie in the lab, the orange tape mark and yellow T-mark are visible on the floor. (00:29:20)
Continuity mistake: We see a close-up of Kevin's poster that Ziva is holding. In the close-up, she is holding the poster on the right-hand side.
