Captive Hearts - S1-E5

Continuity mistake: When Xavier is talking to Jean and Cyclops at the end, the three of them, along with Storm, are all to the left of the bed Gambit is lying on, with Storm being behind Xavier, over his right shoulder, and a piece of machinery behind her. When the shot changes, it is a closeup of Xavier, and neither Storm, nor the machinery are visible over Xavier's shoulder. When Jean and Cyclops leave the room, Xavier is now at the foot of Gambit's bed, several feet away from Storm. (00:20:08 - 00:20:32)
