S5:E4;2 MGS

In this episode's cold open Dwight tells Michael to mark the baby (a watermelon) with a mark only he would recognize and no baby snatcher could ever replicate. Later, when Dwight takes Jan's stroller outside to test its durability (11:33), we can see a mark written in black felt pen, with the letters "MGS" (Michael Gary Scott's initials) inside an ellipse on the watermelon.

S5:E4;1 Broken Stroller

During Dwight's durability test of Jan's $1,200 "Orbit" stroller, he reverses his car into it, demolishing one of its rear wheels. In the next shot, the stroller can be seen with all four wheels intact.

S5:E3 Hammermill

During Holly's ethics seminar, Meredith reveals that for the past six years she had been sleeping with Bruce Myers, the Scranton representative for Hammermill, in exchange for discounts and Outback Steakhouse coupons. Staples had an exclusive hold on Hammermill products up until S3:E2, when Michael announced to Jan, Josh, Jim, and Dwight that he had, for the first time, gotten Hammermill to break their exclusive ties with Staples. Less than six years passed between S3:E2 and S5:E3, meaning Meredith could not have been receiving Hammermill discounts for the duration of her relationship with Myers.

S4:E14;1 Raccoon Hazing

When Meredith, Dwight, and Mose break into Holly's car to leave a raccoon inside, Meredith inserts a crowbar of sorts between the door and the window to disable the lock. We can clearly see that the driver's side window had been open the whole time.

S3:E10;1 That's Not Cindy

While having lunch at Benihana's, Andy suggests to Michael that they should invite their waitresses to the office Christmas party. The waitress we see Jim, Dwight, Andy, and Michael interacting with is named Cindy, who Andy says Michael can "have". When we get back to the office, Cindy is not accompanying the gang but rather two other waitresses, also Asian. Neither of the waitresses were at the scene in Benihana's, however, the subtitles show dialogue for one of the waitresses as "Cindy".

S2:E7;02 Samuel L. Chang's Dialogue Is Different

When Jim tabs through the Threat Level Midnight  script at his desk with Pam [07:00], we can see Samuel L. Chang's dialogue contains words like "yo" and "word". When we see Dwight's portrayal of Chang in the  Threat Level Midnight film, the dialogue doesn't contain the same language. The only time we see someone reading Chang's dialogue directly from the script is when Ryan plays the part later in the same episode. Possible Cause: Dwight wants Chang to be a humanoid robot, and Michael lets him portray Chang as such. Dwight could have intentionally omitted certain language in Chang's dialogue to more accurately portray him as a robot.

S1:E3;02 Editing Mistake

Upset about some of the gang's forged medical information, Dwight confronts the office. Jim replies with "O.K. whoa, alright? Because that's a pretty intense accusation." Jim's dialogue [12:50] is cut prematurely while we watch Ryan, Creed, and an unknown D.M. employee listening to him.
