Corrected entry: In the beginning of the episode, Khan makes Connie's friends sign a contract when they come over for Connie's sleepover. Despite being an intelligent man he should know that even if a child signs a contract, it is null and void unless the child is with a parent or legal guardian. Khan might be rash and strict but with how seriously he takes these contracts it seems doubtful he would forgot something as important as a minor needing an guardian to sign an contract. Evidence of how serious he was about the contract that a little later in the episode, he even takes away the girls pillows when they are fighting in order to avoid anyone getting hurt. Then after this one of the girls makes a comment how Connie's dad made her pay for breakfast.

Correction: Khan thinks he's smarter than everyone else in town. And considering that it's Arlen, he's usually right. He thinks they're dumb hicks who would never think to talk to a real lawyer about it and find out he can't do that.

Corrected entry: Hank asks Peggy if she has her bridesmaid's dress from "one of Luanne's mama's weddings." In the episode "Leanne's Saga", Luanne's mother is just now getting out of jail for attacking Luanne's father, while they were married. She could not have left jail and had any other weddings.
Correction: We don't know if or how many times Leanne was married before she met Peggy's brother. It would be a safe bet to say she's gotten married more than once.
Why would Peggy be attending any of Leanne's weddings before Leanne met Peggy's brother? Leanne doesn't seem like the type of person Peggy would be friends with.
I don't have the ability to go back and re-watch the episode currently, so don't recall if Leanne is from Texas too or Montana like Peggy. If they went back as far as Montana, it might've been a case of being a small-enough town that she didn't have a lot of choices in friends. If after, they could've met young enough for Leanne to have had a couple weddings before setting her eye on Peggy's brother. Peggy's a bold, friendly person by nature; she probably has a number of friends whom you wouldn't expect. After all, she considers Minh one.
Leanne was married to Peggy's brother. Peggy probably feels enough family connection left that she lets herself get dragged to Leanne's weddings.

Hank's Back - S8-E20
Corrected entry: Buck Strickland and Hank discuss how Hank has never missed a day of work except when Bobby was born (and Hank pretended to be sick that day). But Hank skipped work in the episode "The Buck Stops Here" (season five), when he searched for Buck and Bobby in Hot Springs.
Correction: Since Hank rescued Buck and Bobby from the jam he'd gotten them into in that episode, and often has to go above and beyond his job description for him, Buck probably counts that as working for him.

Peggy Hill: the Decline and Fall (2) - S4-E1
Corrected entry: Hank states that DiDi is three years older than Peggy. However, in the episode "Shins of the Father", he said that he went to kindergarten with Didi, which would make him three years older than Peggy as well. This is not possible, though, because he says in "Luanne Virgin 2.0" that he and Peggy were married when they were eighteen. (If he is three years older than Peggy and he was married to her at age eighteen, he would have married a fifteen-year-old).
Correction: She could have gone to school late. Kindergarten isn't mandatory in the US.
I don't think Didi could have gone to school three years late, though. That would make her twenty-one years old when she graduated from high school, even if she didn't fail a year.
It's quite possible that she only started kindergarten one year late. Then she failed other grades and had to repeat them. The repeated grades would cause her to graduate at age twenty-one. The rules for each school are different, but at my high school, a student could keep attending until age twenty-one.
People have graduated at age 21 or higher in the past. There's no law stating that one can only be in school until the age of 18. Just because YOU doubt it doesn't mean it couldn't have happened.
Correct. At my high school, anyway (graduated in 2006), a person could keep going until they turned 21, then they were required to get a GED instead.

Life in the Fast Lane, Bobby's Saga - S2-E21
Corrected entry: When Boomhauer is getting ready for the race to be the pace car driver, Dale mentions that he could be like Jeff Gordon if he had a rich daddy. However, Jeff Gordon's dad was not rich, nor was his step father. Gordon's step father, John Bickford, worked as a mechanic for a Van shop installing chair lifts for disabled. In order for Jeff to race, they had to save every little cent, and sometimes had to sell the trophies Gordon won in order for him to race.
Correction: Dale is crazy and reaches insane conclusions. It's a character mistake.

Correction: You have completely missed the point of the situation. Khan is a control freak and he is always pressuring Connie to become a success i.e. "Bluegrass is Always Greener on the Other Side". He comes up with the idea of a special contract, which is only valid in his house and does not apply in any legal system whatsoever, as a means of preventing the other girls from making his daughter a stupid party girl.
