Continuity mistake: During the barroom brawl, Bobby and Mike start fighting and Donna escapes out the back exit with one of the bikers. They leave on his motorcycle to meet James. Dale and Sheriff Harry are trailing them. Then a cut back to the barroom and Bobby and Mike are still fighting the bikers. However, if you look in the top right of the shot, you can see Donna and the biker still behind the bar, trying to leave. (01:19:13 - 01:19:50)

Pilot - S1-E1

Visible crew/equipment: When Bobby is released by the police, he speaks to his friend in the hallway of the station about the possible identity of Laura Palmer's killer. To avoid eavesdropping, Bobby tells his friend that they should speak outside. As they walk through the glass doors towards the exit, Bobby encounters his father and two other people. Tape markers are visible on the floor placed at their feet. (00:55:53)

Other mistake: When we are first introduced to Leland Palmer and Benjamin Horne, they are discussing a contract in front of a large, lit fireplace. A couch (on which Leland is seated) is in front of the fireplace. Strangely, the flames of the fire are visible through the couch, and also Horne's legs are at one point. (00:11:09)

Visible crew/equipment: When Sheriff Harry Truman takes the call from Pete Martell at the police station, a reflection of a seated crew member wearing headphones (it actually looks very much like David Lynch!) is visible in the glass divider of the office the Sheriff enters to answer the phone. Clear as day. (00:05:13)

Continuity mistake: When Lucy is badly explaining to Sheriff Harry Truman which phone she transferred the call to, in the window reflection, you can see the Sheriff moving around the office to find the phone. But in the close-up cutaways of Harry, he is standing in one place. (00:05:07)

Chosen answer: Killer BOB is a demonic entity that emanates from a realm of pure evil known as the Black Lodge, a place that exists on an alternate plane of reality. BOB feeds on human pain and suffering and can travel on earth by possessing human beings and also as an owl. While possessing humans, he commits horrible acts to elicit pain, fear, and suffering from those who are around him, using that as nourishment. BOB possesses Leland Palmer, later forcing him to abuse, rape, and eventually murder his own daughter, Laura, and later to commit suicide.
