Day 6: 12:00 AM - 1:00 AM - S6-E19
Visible crew/equipment: After Tom tells the VP that he could authorize ancillary agencies to join the search to find Jack, he and Karen leave the Oval Office, and in the next shot facing Lisa as she walks toward Noah, the yellow T-mark is visible on the rug at the bottom of the screen. (00:11:05)
Day 6: 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM - S6-E7
Continuity mistake: At the very end of the previous episode (approx 11:59 AM), Jack and Phillip are chained at the back of the van, and in the closeup Jack's handcuff double bar faces up on his right wrist. This moment is shown in the recap at the start of this episode. When the van reaches the dump site (approx 12:07 PM), Jack and Phillip are unchained and now Jack's handcuff single bar faces up on his right wrist. (00:01:55 - 00:07:55)
11:00 A.M.-12:00 Noon - S1-E12
Continuity mistake: When fleeing from the compound, Kim wears running shoes instead of the wedge sandals (or the flats she wore when Teri was raped).
Day 4: 1:00 A.M.-2:00 A.M. - S4-E19
Continuity mistake: At the very end of Episode 18, Jack knocks out Joe Prado after breaking his thumb and getting information from him. At the very beginning of Episode 19, we see Prado already being treated for his injuries, with a hand splint, and nurses checking his head, within the CTU clinic. Even if you factor in the opening recap sequence at the beginning of every episode, that means that Joe Prado regained consciousness, Jack unhooked his handcuffs, and dragged him back to CTU in three minutes or less.

Day 2: 7:00 A.M.-8:00 A.M. - S2-E24

Day 7: 9:00 AM - 10:00 AM - S7-E2
Factual error: Tony Almeida takes control of 2 planes to create a near miss. In reality all aircraft use a commonly available AM voice radio and pilots can hear each other's radio communications. It would be straightforward to contact the planes and warn them.
Day 2: 8:00 A.M.-9:00 A.M. - S2-E1
Continuity mistake: We see Kim having breakfast near the start. In one shot she has her fork in her hand. In the next she has a glass of juice. (00:11:45)
11:00 P.M.-12:00 Midnight - S1-E24

Answer: According to Jack in season 5, Nina was "deep cover" before the pair ever met, so it's safe to assume she was recruited before she joined CTU. As for what her primary mission was, who knows? Perhaps it was to gather sensitive intel and pass it on to her superiors. Given that she worked for an intelligence agency, it's not a stretch. Or perhaps we may find out in season seven.
