Continuity: Worf bends over twice when he uncovers Soran.

Plot hole: When Capt. Picard is talking about a prisoner transfer, he says he will beam over to the Klingon Ship, then they can beam him down to the planet. So, he beams off the ship, and in the next scene he is on the planet, but his transporter pattern, which should be red (as that is the Klingon transporter pattern colour) is blue, the Starfleet pattern colour. Now, this says that the Enterprise beamed Picard down to the planet, without beaming him over to the Klingon ship first, but that makes no sense as they said he would beam over to the Klingon ship first, so they can beam him down. Also, he must have gone to the Klingon ship first, as his communicator is on his chest when he leaves the Enterprise, but gone when he lands on the planet, meaning someone, obviously the Klingons, took it off him. And don't say the Klingons gave the Enterprise the co-ordinates for Dr Soran's missile site, they're cleverer than that.

Continuity: When the crew of the Enterprise - D is in the Holodeck after Picard has left, Riker is telling Geordie to set royals at stunsil at which time Geordie is looking through a telescope with his right eye. In the next shot when he questions Riker, he takes the telescope down from his left eye.

Continuity: When Kirk and Soran are fighting on top of the launching structure, Soran falls down the side of the cliff but stops his fall by grabbing a rope hanging from the structure. A moment later the rope loosens and Soran drops fifty feet or so before the rope pulls taught and he stops again. But despite having just dropped fifty feet, he is back at the same place on the cliff before the rope loosened the first time.

Revealing: When Picard is trying to squeeze through the rock archway, he looks like he's stuck, but a closer look reveals he has enough room above his back to squeeze through without any trouble.

Continuity: In the stellar cartography scene, while Data is conversing with Captain Picard about being deactivated, you can see that Data does not have his signature yellow eyed contacts in place.

Deliberate "mistake": After the trilithium missile hits the sun, it is shown going out in real time from Veridian III. As the planet is relatively earth-like, it is several light-minutes away from the sun. The filmmakers wanted it to be obvious that the missile was successful, so they ignored the speed of light.

Visible crew/equipment: On the Enterprise-B bridge, when the ship is hit and crewmen go flying, you can see one man go over the bridge railing backward. twice, from different angles. When he lands the second time, the edge of a blue pad to cushion his fall pops up into the bottom of the shot.

Audio problem: Counsellor Troi visits Picard in his quarters after he finds out that his brother dies. Listen to Picard say "Counsellor - er". There is an audio editing mistake of some sort where you could clearly hear that his voice was dubbed over the original, the original being off by a fraction of a second. The "er" sound from "Counsellor" is repeated.

Continuity: Worf's sash disappears when he is knocked over his console.

Revealing: As Worf climbs up the side of the 19th century ship, you can see that his pants legs are red in front. (The paint on the ship wasn't dry when they filmed it.).

Other: If you watch the holodeck doors as Picard leaves the holodeck after hearing the bad news, you can see that the holodeck doors seem to be crudely painted with a brush and you can see the large brush marks.

Audio problem: When Kirk circles his horse around Picard, his dialogue concerning the empty captain's chair sounds as if it was dubbed in afterwards.

Continuity: When Data is moving away pieces, looking for the lifesign and finds his cat, his lenses are not always in. There are times that his eyes are blue.

Continuity: Roads are visible in the background during the climatic fight sequence on Veridia III, even though the planet is uninhabited.

Factual error: A bottle of champagne in space rotates around its centre of mass, not the midpoint of its axis of symmetry.

Continuity: When Picard first fights Soran on Viridian 3, there is not a single cloud in the sky. Though when Picard returns with Kirk to fight him again (at the exact same time courtesy of the Nexus), it appears to be a very overcast day.

Factual error: According to the laws of physics, a massive point source should exert the same amount of gravity on an object X distance away as a spherical object of constant density with radius less than X. With this in mind, the Nexus should not have deviated from its course when the star was destroyed (at least until after the shock wave had passed the planet, destroying it along with Soran).
