...and the Bag's in the River - S1-E3
Visible crew/equipment: At the start when Jesse looks over his shoulder at Walt, a stage light and what appears to be a light screen are reflected in his mask. (00:02:00)
Visible crew/equipment: At the very beginning of the episode where the RV crashes against a rock in the middle of the desert, a camera badly hidden behind a bush can be seen on the right side of the screen immediately after the crash. (00:00:57)
Revealing mistake: Walter is in the basement and slides two bottles of water and a plate with a sandwich across the floor to give to Krazy-8. Right before he slides the plate across the floor, the camera wobbles slightly. (00:28:25)
Visible crew/equipment: When Walter puts the mask over Jesse's unconscious face after drugging Emilio and Krazy-8, in the POV shot of Jesse where the camera is looking up at Walter, the reflection of the camera can be seen in Walter's mask. (00:51:05)
Continuity mistake: When Jesse picks up the apron and asks "What the hell is this", the apron is held so that part of it is placed over the top of Jesse's hand. When the camera changes angles, none of the apron can be seen placed over the top of his hand. (00:33:55)
Continuity mistake: When Jesse reminds Walter that he flunked him, he is holding a bottle of beer that is raised to his stomach. When the shot cuts, the beer bottle is lowered away from his stomach. (00:33:20)
...and the Bag's in the River - S1-E3
Character mistake: When Walt and Gretchen are talking about the elements in the body, they list hydrogen, oxygen, carbon, nitrogen, calcium, iron, sodium, and phosphorus. The percentage is short and she says "supposedly that's everything." But they don't count elements like sulfur (which has a greater abundance than sodium), potassium, chlorine, and magnesium. Even as college students, they would know those elements are in the body.
Factual error: Jesse's home number is (505) 148-3369. However, US phone numbers can't have an exchange that starts with 1. (00:14:30)
Cancer Man - S1-E4
Factual error: Walt places a squeegee on the battery of a car to blow it up. This car is a BMW e36, which has the battery in the trunk.
A No-Rough-Stuff Type Deal - S1-E7
Continuity mistake: When Walt and Skyler are talking on the sofa, Walt's hand goes from Skyler's leg to her hands instantly. (00:40:20)
...and the Bag's in the River - S1-E3
Continuity mistake: The position of Walt's right foot changes when he collapses. When he first collapses his foot is pointing toes away from his left foot. We then see Krazy8 stand up and now Walt's right foot is pointing toes towards his left foot. (00:23:10)
...and the Bag's in the River - S1-E3
Continuity mistake: Walt writes a list with the title "let him live." The position, style and size of the writing changes from when he writes it to when we see the list with 2 entries on it. Note the T in "let" has moved off the margin line. (00:20:10)
Continuity mistake: When Krazy8 falls to the floor, his position on the floor changes between shots. Notice his right arm in relation to the curb. (00:13:20)
Continuity mistake: When Jesse looks out of the bathroom window there is a little curtain across the bottom half of the window. From the shot inside the bathroom the curtain is opened however from the outside it is closed. (00:12:00)
Crazy Handful of Nothin' - S1-E6
Continuity mistake: Tuco stabs his knife into the desk near a silver object. Once Jesse has been brought back to the desk after trying to run, the knife is much further away from the silver item. (00:27:50)
Gray Matter - S1-E5
Continuity mistake: When Marie is talking Jr. puts his drink on the table, camera changes and then his drink is back in his hand. (00:32:00)
Gray Matter - S1-E5
Continuity mistake: When Marie has the talking pillow, the blanket on the sofa behind Jr. is constantly changing position. (00:32:50)
...and the Bag's in the River - S1-E3
Continuity mistake: Skyler asks Marie how weed affected her in high school. Skyler then says it made her light-headed. In this shot you can see the paintbrush she is holding is up by her face. As the camera cuts however the paintbrush is now down at waist height. (00:05:40)
...and the Bag's in the River - S1-E3
Continuity mistake: When Walt starts coughing while clearing up the mess at the start, Jesse looks over his shoulder at Walt. When the camera changes, Jesse is now head down. (00:02:10)
...and the Bag's in the River - S1-E3
Continuity mistake: Walt examines the remains of the gun at the start. However, the way he holds the remains differs between the two shots. (00:01:40)
Chosen answer: It is part of the ritual for la Santa Muerte. It is a sign of humility and sacrifice.
