Mistakes/Goofs

  • Goof (incorrectly regarded as a mistake): Cassandra's doctor incorrectly states that wisdom teeth only erupt in adulthood. While it is true that in most cases wisdom teeth only erupt after age 17, they can erupt much earlier. - The doctor didn't say "only", she made a generalized statement that they come in during adulthood and was a clue which lead to a further examination.
