The Firestorm - S5-E5

Continuity mistake: When Zeb asks Olivia about dinner he takes a whole carrot, snaps it in half, and begins chomping as he walks toward the meeting in the living room, but when Esther takes the carrot away from Zeb it's quite a whole carrot, with only the tip gone. (00:05:00)

The Firestorm - S5-E5

Continuity mistake: After the rock is thrown, when John-Boy is looking through the broken window while holding the rock he's wearing grey pleated trousers, but it cuts to a closeup of the rock in John-Boy's hands and now he's wearing what looks like blue jeans, plus the hands holding the rock look nothing like John-Boy's hands.

The Firestorm - S5-E5

Continuity mistake: When Erin balances a book on her head as she walks around the table, the title on The Book's spine is at Erin's right side, but it cuts to her closeup and between shots the spine is flipped over with the title at Erin's left side. (00:09:15)

Visible crew/equipment: While Ike explains to Jim-Bob about "traffic" in the grocery business he walks over to the register, and in the background a T-mark is visible on the floor in front of the counter where Ike placed the grocery order, then soon Ike will walk back over to that spot to place a box on the counter.

The Heartbreaker - S5-E21

Factual error: When Elizabeth asks Zeb how Vanessa can be happy, Zeb has his old catalog with a bunch of flower seed packets on his lap, and as they both hold up the packets, particularly Elizabeth, the modern Universal Product Codes are at the back of the packets. The UPC did not exist until many years later. (00:10:05)
