Goofs

The show starts with Abbey and her son at the airport with a cut on the left side of her forehead, then the show goes back in time 15 hours. When we see how she gets the cut, she bumps her head on the door frame of the back door of a cab, but she hits it with the right side of her forehead, and when the show catches up with the beginning, the cut is back on the left side of her forehead.
