Bloopers

 * The diver reports that one of the detector units is operational, yet two assembled units are clearly visible, and the tech-diver had been shown to have calibrated two of the units with his belt-mounted device and curly-cord.


 * Jaime and the divers are communicating whilst underwater but that would not be possible as their breathing apparatus is a tube they have in their mouth (i.e. so they could not even move their lips to speak, let alone the fact they are underwater and could not do so).


 * When Jaime fights a shark with a metal pole, there is a yellow rope tied around the shark's tail fin.


 * Visible emulsion-film glitch/splice in the supposedly live-video footage of the first shark-attack on diver wearing the miniature transponder. Obviously 35mm stock-footage of swimming sharks being displayed on a TV monitor.

Quotes

 * Jed Kimball: Oh, yeah.
 * Jaime Sommers: Okay?

 * Jed Kimball: Alright. Now...
 * Jaime and Jed: ...about this weekend

 * Jaime Sommers: If anything funky happens down there...
 * Jed Kimball: What?

 * Oscar Goldman: Here's the setup. Somebody is trying to prevent us from testing our new submarine detector device. One of the divers quit this morning because of so-called 'accidents,' and the other two are about to. Jaime, you're going to be diving in several hundred feet of water. You're going to have to be checked out on your safety techniques. We've got to get those devices planted and checked—it's very important to us. And besides, if you, a beautiful, frail young woman is ready to go down there after what's happened, I'm counting on the men's macho to keep them from backing out.
 * Jaime Sommers: I thought... uhh... chauvinism was a thing of the past.
