Visible crew/equipment: As Fox is being led into the jail, when Scully says, "Mulder" the boom mic is at the top of the screen, while she's walking towards him. (00:20:30)
Plot hole: Scully's statement that she was 23 when she wrote her senior thesis in college throws off her timeline of college, med school, residency, FBI Academy, Quantico teaching assignment for two years, and X-Files assignment at 28. Her undergraduate degree in Physics should have been completed when she was 20 or 21 to allow at least 4 or 5 years for her medical training. (00:41:35)
Never Again - S4-E13
Visible crew/equipment: When Ed turns to go into the office, you see the reflection of the boom mike on the glass window. (00:05:30)
Continuity mistake: Scully tapes an X in the window,that X changes shape when Scully is talking to Mr. X and before Mr.X dies when he checks on the apartment.
Continuity mistake: When Scully finds out about Betts' mother she says that "She lives right here in Pittsburgh." Nothing wrong there except that at the time they has just left Chuck Burks' lab - which is in Maryland. (00:17:40 - 00:21:10)
Musings of a Cigarette-Smoking Man - S4-E7
Other mistake: In the episode "Musings of a Cigarette Smoking Man," when CSM is writing his letter of resignation on his typewriter, you can see that the letters are already there - he is simply typing over them. (00:39:30)
Continuity mistake: In the first footage of the episode we can see that the ambulance's lower right lamp is off. However, at the moment of the crash it is on. Not to mention that the Chevrolet logo, previously seen at the ambulance front, has vanished. We conclude it is not the same vehicle. (00:00:10 - 00:01:06)
Factual error: A 747 jumbo jet is shown in the first scene of the episode. Later we can see the aircraft cabin with a 3X3 seat configuration. However, there is no 747 with such layout. (00:01:40)
Musings of a Cigarette-Smoking Man - S4-E7
Other mistake: When the CSM is aiming at the door, it must be quite difficult for him because it seems that he forgot to take off the protective lid from the night vision rifle sight. (00:35:10)
Musings of a Cigarette-Smoking Man - S4-E7
Continuity mistake: In other episodes the name of The Lone Gunmen's newsletter is "The Lone Gunman", but in the shots of their office door it has a sign saying "The Lone Gunmen. Publishers of 'The Magic Bullet' newsletter." (00:43:10)
Visible crew/equipment: When Scully asks Fox "Do you know what day it is?" the boom mic drops down at the top of the screen. (00:04:50)
Continuity mistake: In the shot of the 6th Precinct police station, it has a California state flag flying out front. The episode took place in Massachusetts, at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. (00:07:45)
Other mistake: When Mulder opens the body bag containing the "partial" remains of Max Pfennig (AKA Paul Gidney) a pulse can be seen beating in the right side of the corpse's neck. (00:18:10)
Factual error: The date stamp says that it is April 12 and Scully says that it is Sunday, but April 12, 1997 was a Saturday. (00:03:10)
Sanguinarium - S4-E6
Revealing mistake: When Mulder and Scully enter the doctor's house, you can see over their shoulders that it is showering with rain outside, yet both of them are bone dry.
Continuity mistake: We see Scully wearing pants while sitting on the couch, but when the real Mulder comes in, she jumps up and we see she's wearing a skirt. (00:38:35 - 00:41:25)
Continuity mistake: Jeremiah Smith and Mulder are with the kids, and in the background, when CSM is looking through the window, Samantha's clone and the other kid disappear.
Continuity mistake: During the handbrake turn Scully smiles, although in the preceding and following shot her face is very serious. (00:31:15)
Unrequited - S4-E16
Deliberate mistake: When Mulder is about to go into the metal detector he puts his gun on the counter. He goes through the metal detector on his cell phone but his keys set it off, when he steps through again it doesn't go off. No cell phones can go through metal detectors without setting it off.
Chosen answer: Yes.
