Elementary

Absconded - S3-E23

Factual error: Holmes shows an epinephrine auto-injector, but it is only a training device without any needle or medicine: 1. The real epinephrine auto-injector has a transparent housing to enable the user the check of the solution inside the cartridge. The shown "device" has only a grey, opaque housing, as the training device has. 2. The real epinephrine auto-injector has an orange-colored needle guard in the form of a hollow body. The shown "device" has only a finned dummy. (The real epinephrine auto-injector (single use device) is sold with a training device (reusable) to let the user practice the application once or multiple times). (00:25:50)

One Watson, One Holmes - S3-E19

Factual error: In the scene in the hospital, the guy who drove his motorbike into a van has an IV canula in his right hand, but the IV pole and the IV bag are on the left side of the bed, which means the IV line has to be long enough to go up to the bedhead, then behind the bedhead and then up to the bag, leaving no way to check for air bubbles.

Possibility Two - S1-E17

Character mistake: They are in the interrogation room questioning the fiancé of the scientist Natasha when the captain says, "the blood we found at the scene of your fiance's murder, it didn't belong to Bobby Cordero." The characters name was Benny Cordero, which the captain says correctly a few lines later. (00:33:25)

M. - S1-E12

Question: How did Holmes know where M was, so he could have found him and taken him away? And how did Holmes transport M on his own? Was M unconscious, or alert and thus went where Holmes told him to go, or he'd kill him? But M wouldn't do that; he doesn't mind dying.

kh1616

Chosen answer: M broke into the brownstone and left a note. Holmes deduced he was staying at a high-class hotel from the soap scent on the note, and gave a picture from a hidden camera to his "irregulars" on the street to stake out hotels. One of them saw him, so Holmes followed him to his next intended victim and knocked him unconscious with a baton.
