Incredible plot holes within the first two minutes!

1. She burns her hands but has two full bags of frozen peas to soothe them! Who's ever got two completely full bags of frozen peas in their freezer?!

2. It's revealed it's in fact breakfast time! She was up early and cooking a casserole (long cook time) for what purpose (?!!) first thing in the morning!

3. She's in her pajamas on the school run! What? The morning "got away with her" and she didn't have time to get dressed even although she's been sitting around for donkeys waiting on her casserole to be ready?

Absolutely rubbish! Three howling plot holes literally within seconds. This better improve swiftly...

Those are not plots holes.

She's had issues dealing with the death of her daughter. She's forgetful, and probably keeps those frozen peas around just in case she forgets and reaches into the oven. Probably per instructions from her therapist.

And don't tell me you've never seen someone out in public in their pajamas and house slippers. Of course it's somewhat odd, but that doesn't mean it's some sort of plot hole. She's forgetful and deals with issues. Her being out in the PJs is a good way to show her instability.

It's not a plot hole in isolation.

The point was she'd already been up long enough to have made a full casserole and all the wait time that would entail, yet hadn't got dressed, and said the morning had got away with her. Clearly not the case.

thats a minor incontinuity at best. its not part of the plot. hence no plot hole
