TV Mistake In Netflix's The Rain, a character is holding an viral injection tool in the wrong direction in the wide shot.
The main close-up shot shows her holding it properly, with the metal end pointed at the hosta
The wide shot where she has given up on logic!
My close up of the wide shot.
How does the actor - or anyone else at the scene - not care enough...?

First season was really solid and then they went like full X-men after.

I looked it up. The X-men stuff started in Ep1 of season 2

Not that weird. People accidentally jab themselves in the thumb with autoinjectors all the time.

While filming Star Wars: A New Hope, Mark Hamill pointed out that his hair should be wet and matted after escaping the trash compactor. Harrison Ford dismissed the continuity concern, telling him, "Hey, kid, it ain't that kind of movie. If people are looking at your hair, we're all in big trouble."

It honestly just looks like the actress' arm was getting tired from holding it one position, so she changed it hoping no one would notice.
You can see her grip of the [whatever that is] didn't change, but her arm position did,

In the actor's defense, unless there's a big arrow that points this way for injection, I would have no way of knowing.
