The car pursuing Mac drives over some spikes, and comes to a complete stop with the wheels practically on top of these spikes. However, with no time passing between cuts, the car has instantly moved forward so that the spikes are not in view.

When Mac and the girl drive away from the cemetery, Mac puts his sun glasses on as the car starts to move, then as the camera angle changes suddenly his glasses are gone, and we see him put them on a second time.

How did Piedra know who his target was ment to be? and why did he continue his assasination attempt if he didn't get paid?

Those are good ones.

When Piedra throws the knife and Mac stops it with the wooden hammer, a string is vissible, used as a guide for the knife. The same effect is used in the pilot, when Mac throws the SAK to the wooden cage in the opening gambit.

You can see the string?

I always thought that was how they did it, but I've never been able to see it.

I'll have to watch that scene more closely.

[geomancer]

You can see it for a couple of frames, and it is difficult to spot it. You have to watch for the string reflection, that moves up and down with the wooden hammer movement.

IT's is a reverse shot!!
The string has been used for pull the knife away from the hammer!
Then the scene has been assembled on the contrary ...
