The Sixth Position - S2-E10

Revealing mistake: At the beginning of the episode, Magnum hangs up the phone and runs out of the guest house to heed Higgins' call and find the lawn swarming with ballerinas. As he comes out of the door, you can get a glimpse of the actual interior, which does not match the set used throughout the series. (00:06:00)

The Sixth Position - S2-E10

Continuity mistake: A very sweaty Kendall is about to tell Magnum about the correspondent. She goes to the barre to fetch her robe; the robe is folded over it in a different position compared to how it looked in the previous part of the scene; the sleeves hang down by a completely different length. (00:30:55)

The Sixth Position - S2-E10

Continuity mistake: Magnum is back to the ballet rehearsal after his bribing routine with Mac. Kendall uses the line "I really appreciate everything you did last night" and you can spot she is touching the side of her head with her hand. Close-up and the hand is gone. (00:30:35)

Of Sound Mind - S3-E12

Higgins: How fiendishly deceptive of you, Magnum. I could have sworn I was hearing the emasculation of a large rodent. To my great surprise, I see the sounds are emanating from what I thought was a harmless musical instrument.
Magnum: Cute Higgins, real cute.
Higgins: Why Magnum? Why do this terrible thing?
Magnum: Higgins, I'll have you know I used to be very good. I was the second best sax player in my High School band!
Higgins: Well, how many sax players were there?!
Magnum: ...Anyway. I just saw this in a pawn shop window and thought I'd like to try and get my chops back.
Higgins: May I suggest that your "chops" are irretrievable.
Magnum: Higgins, did you come here just to abuse me!?
