It Takes a Thief

Beyond a Treasonable Doubt - S3-E23

Revealing mistake: Somehow you'd think that a gadget-happy government spy agency would be capable of replacing a dead battery. The clock in the SIA HQ board room remains at 10:10 throughout the entire 5-minute interrogation scene with Mundy. (00:07:00)

Fortune City - S3-E18

Revealing mistake: The saloon's upper level railing looks solid until just before the bad guy falls through it, when the cuts in the break-away section are prominently visible. (00:26:05)

A Sour Note - S2-E2

Factual error: Gino commits a murder using a six-shooter with a silencer attached, and his shot doesn't make any noise. But it should have. Though it's a long-standing Hollywood cliché, a revolver with a silencer wouldn't be silent at all. Unlike automatic weapons, revolvers are open-chambered, which allows sound to escape. They can't be muffled with a silencer. (00:34:00)
