Corrected entry: When Ben Healy starts to go crazy he tries to smother Junior with a pillow. He doesn't get to because the doorbell rings and Junior goes to get it. The funny thing is that he keeps the pillow in his hands when he goes to the door, when they go to eat dinner, and even the next day when he finds out Junior was taken.

Problem Child (1990)
1 corrected entry
Directed by: Dennis Dugan
Starring: Jack Warden, John Ritter, Gilbert Gottfried, Michael Oliver
Continuity mistake: When the nuns are arguing with Gilbert Gottfried, at the beginning of the scene there is no bell on the nun's desk, but when Junior is standing by the desk the bell is suddenly there.
Junior: Why does this guy love me? Why does any parent love any kid? Maybe it's one of those answers we'll never know, like how high is up? Why is the sky blue? And whatever happened to Mrs. Healy?
Question: What was in the red backpack that John Ritter was going to give Michael Richards as ransom for Jr, since he didn't have the 100 grand that he promised him?

Correction: Not necessarily a mistake but a character choice, possibly due to the fact the man's gone crazy, maybe he feels better holding on to the pillow.
