The Incredible Disappearing Carmela

Apologies if someone has already pointed this out, but I couldn't see it in the goofs. When they go to visit Carmela and Rick goes into the room, as he closes the door carefully watch the mirror on the wall. It could just be the copy (Arrow Films release) I've got, but Carmela seems to suddenly disappear! It's weird because it doesn't look like it's skipped, but more like a deliberate edit.

You're absolutely right, she does just vanish. It's obviously two separate takes spliced together, which I can't figure out why because Rick already delivered the line "take your clothes off" and was already out of sight when the edit occurred. She was standing right behind him, so maybe he accidentally ran into her in the first take.

That could well be it. To be honest I don't usually notice these things, but for some reason this one really stood out :)
