Other mistake: When the taxi gets hit, the number plate reads "GE 7051" on the back of the car, but when the taxi falls into the water, the number plate reads "GE 7054" on the front of the car. The number plate should be the same on both ends. (00:14:55)

The Calculus Affair: Part 1 - S1-E12

Revealing mistake: The villains stand in front of Marlinspike Hall. The shot after a close-up of their feet shows the clouds along with a storm. Look to the lower left corner and you will see part of the grey cloud doesn't have any color on it, like the animation cell has been scratched. (00:02:50)
