Reacher Season 4 Episode 6 has become a hot topic among viewers, but not for the reasons the makers would have hoped. The episode titled Plum Out of Luck dropped on Prime Video recently and quickly caught attention for a noticeable visual mistake involving Jacob Merrick’s neck wound.
Viewers noticed that the wound on Jacob’s neck kept changing位置 throughout the episode. This error has sparked significant discussion across social media platforms, with many fans pointing out the slip-up.
What Exactly Happened in the Scene?
The episode begins with a tense standoff. Lila and Amisha hold Jacob (played by Christopher Marquette) at knifepoint, demanding the flash drive. During this confrontation, Amisha cuts Jacob’s neck. The wound is not deep, but it draws blood.
This injury is supposed to stay visible throughout the episode as Jacob continues his activities. He later drives the wounded Russell Plum to the hospital. At the hospital, police officers notice the cut on his neck and question him about it.
SUCH A BIG MISTAKE IN EP6 (spoiler alert)

Where Did the Error Occur?
The problem lies in the placement of the wound. In the opening scene, Amisha cuts Jacob right in the center of his neck. However, in later scenes, the wound appears on the left side of his neck.
Fans spotted this change while watching the episode. The production team likely placed the prosthetic wound in the wrong position during reshoots or different filming sessions. Such mistakes happen often in streaming shows when scenes are shot at different times.
Other Issues in Episode 6
The neck wound error is not the only problem viewers found. The episode contains several other flaws. Russell Plum disappears from the episode after being admitted to the hospital in the first act. The show does not update viewers on whether his condition is stable.
The episode also uses a common action thriller trope where the villain leaves the room after trapping the heroes. The henchmen manage to overpower Reacher and Tamara, which some fans found predictable.
The ending features a cliffhanger where henchmen take Reacher and Tamara to an unknown location and threaten to shoot them. Since a fifth season has already been approved, viewers know Reacher will survive.
Fan Reactions
Fans have taken to social media to share their thoughts. Many expressed disappointment with the continuity error. Some called it lazy filmmaking, while others found it amusing.
“How does a professional production miss something so obvious? The wound moves from the center to the side. Did no one check the footage?” – a fan wrote on social media.
Others defended the show, saying such mistakes are common and do not ruin the overall experience. The discussion continues to grow as more viewers watch the episode.
