15 mistakes in season 1

(1 vote)

Secrets - S1-E13

Revealing mistake: It is strange that the news coverage at the beginning of this episode is able to cover the story from all angles in such rapid succession: from the helicopter straight to the ground, then even a close-up of the goon atop the crystal mount Diamondhead traps him on.

The Krakken - S1-E3

Continuity mistake: When Ben pretends to be sucked into the lake, and Gwen turns around to look after him saying "I'm not falling for it", she's missing her eyebrows for a second or two.

The Alliance - S1-E8

Continuity mistake: When Rojo attacks the police academy, there is a patrol car right behind her. But when Ben (as XLR8) arrives and slams into her, the car suddenly vanishes.

Secrets - S1-E13

Continuity mistake: When the Tennyson's RV passes by Rapid City when it comes under attack by Vilgax, it's the first time the outskirts can be seen. But later, when the gas station explodes, the entire town is suddenly hidden behind a mountain range.

Hunted - S1-E5

Continuity mistake: The number of rockets Sixsix has on his wrist launcher alternates between three and four, especially during the final combat scenes.

Hunted - S1-E5

Deliberate mistake: When Sixsix impacts with the ground due to Greymatter sabotaging his jet pack, the furrow he ploughs into the ground is already present when he skips across the ground.

The Alliance - S1-E8

Plot hole: After Upgrade has successfully removed Rojo's cybernetic parts, the beam rifle she had used in the armoured car heist at the episode's start suddenly appears among them. But when the drone merged with her, she wasn't holding the gun and so it couldn't have been transformed along with her.

Permanent Retirement - S1-E4

Continuity mistake: When the Marty-alien removes the dumpster as Ben watches him, there is a set of stairs leading down. But later, when Ben (as Wildmutt) and Gwen jump down the shaft, the stairs are gone and there is an iron ladder.

A Small Problem - S1-E11

Continuity mistake: When Ben is upset because he is too short to go on the water slide, he is wearing a bathing suit. But in the shot where the Omnitrix deactivates and he is back to being a human, he is in his normal uniform.

Lucky Girl - S1-E10

Plot hole: When Hex revives in the ambulance, the stone to the right of the glowing Reincarnation Charm is the Luck Charm - which Gwen has at that time. Therefore it should be missing from the necklace, but there it is.

Side Effects - S1-E12

Deliberate mistake: When the Tennysons drive towards the city's power plant, Grandpa Max is using the left side of the highway instead of the right. Even with a looming nuclear accident, correct traffic habits do play a role, especially on such a narrow highway. Who knows whether one might drive down the road in a hurry and you approach him on his side of the highway?

Side Effects - S1-E12

Other mistake: When the Tennysons drive towards the city's power plant, Grandpa Max is using the left side of the highway. Curious, since you drive on the right in the USA - regardless of the looming nuclear accident there was no reason to invite a crash like that.

Grandpa Max Tennyson: Being a hero isn't about letting others know you did the right thing, it's about you knowing you did the right thing.
Ben Tennyson: What were you just doing, reading greeting cards back at the Mega Mart?
Grandpa Max Tennyson: Well... yes.
