Revealing mistake: At the beginning of the episode when Emma is talking with Norman, she drops the newspaper (of Bradley) in front of him. If you pause it and read the newspaper you can see the text has been repeated once for the text about Bradley and many more times for the news item below that. (00:41:35)

Bates Motel (2013)
1 revealing mistake in show generally - chronological order
Starring: Vera Farmiga, Freddie Highmore, Max Thieriot, Olivia Cooke, Nicola Peltz
Other mistake: After the scene where Norman texts Bradley that he is coming over, the next shot is Norman looking at the small transcript of his messages to her. If you look, you can see that the transcript starts at 2:34 PM. However, it's nighttime. You can even see the time says 2:34 PM at the top of the phone screen. Also, the original text of 'Hey' is missing although he texted her immediately after receiving it with 'I want to come over and see you.' (00:37:40)
Dylan Massett: You'll do anything to get your way.
Norma Louise Bates: I've never gotten my way, and that includes being your mother.
