My nitpicks are as numerically proceeds:
1) The Russian with the yellow tie pursuing Svetlana (Olga's sister) in the original time line prior to his accomplice slaying her in the elevator is doing so in a rather slow fashion.
2) The blood handprint and streak Svetlana leaves on the elevator glass is larger from a far-off shot--more specifically, from Dr. Olga Vukavitch's perspective. Furthermore, is the stab wound that fatal? She could bleed internally, but in all likelihood she could survive.
3) Lt. Frank Parker reaches the sphere from the ramp down which he, Comdr. Craig Donovan, and Dr. John Ballard were traipsing rather quickly, considering the reasonably large distance between both locations.
4) Lt. Frank Parker opens Dr. Olga Vukavitch's note that is to be conveyed to her past counterpart. However, the note inexplicably vanishes from his hand during Backstep.
5) Lt. Frank Parker does not have his hand to his face as Dr. Olga Vukavitch is struggling to persuade Bradley Talmadge to allow her and Lt. Frank Parker to handle personal matters. Then, there is a brief scene in which Comdr. Craig Donovan drops the magazine he is reading, and Lt. Frank Parker still does not have his hand to his face. In the sequential scene, though, Lt. Frank Parker has his hand to his face.
6) Dr. Olga Vukavitch, during the car trip to Las Vegas, mentions how hard it is in Russia. Does she not mean the former Russia?
7) The Russian with the yellow tie who was pursuing Svetlana in the original time line appears with a red tie and is apparently unaware of Svetlana's involvement in the convent. Now, these events could have transpired prior to the Russian with yellow tie barging into the convent, as was the case in the original time line. Be that as it may, I would have appreciated an explanation.
8) The later revealed police officer enters the convent and casually roams around with a firearm in his hand. The creators/writers must have forgotten how easily bystanders panic when any form of a weapon is sighted.
9) Not truly a nitpick, but Lt. Frank Parker's "This is Condom--uh, I mean--Conundrum" line is hilarious.
10) Svetlana conveniently recognizes, locates, and drives up to the car from which the remnant Russian accomplices are emerging. Speaking of which, how did Lt. Frank Parker manage to trace the culprits and assume the role of their driver?
Re: 6. No, it is the former SOVIET UNION. The country is now called Russia. It was the RSFSR during the Soviet era (I believe that was Russian Soviet Federated Socialist Republic, but I could be wrong on that one).
Also about #6. Even after market reforms and democracy, it really bites to live in Russia. What with businessmen being kidnapped for money or Russian mafia taking over much of the economy, female doctors going to prostitution because they can make more money, an ineffective and corrupt police, foreign aid squirreling off into private Swiss bank accounts, and to top it off an alcoholic president who is sick all the time and has a habit of firing his prime ministers.
It's no surprise that some people over there are nostalgic for the old USSR.
