Other mistake: Runaway Float: After Nick talks about redesigning the parade float, Bob asks the kids who wants to ride on the float.

Back to School / Egg Story - S4-E8

Other mistake: Back to School: After Principal Wartz tells Phil he will find a classroom for him, it cuts to a shot inside Mr. Simmons' classroom. If you look at Sid in this shot, the lower half of his body is cut off. Phoebe's right foot is also layered over him. (00:03:58)

Helga's Locket / Sid and Germs - S5-E7

Plot hole: Helga's Locket: When Grandpa tells Arnold about his grandfather's Shiska-Bob Stick, he says that no one has ever touched it since his grandfather's last barbecue on July 16, 1926. However, in the season 3 episode "Grandpa's Birthday," Grandpa says that his grandfather died in 1921 while he looks at the photo album. (00:09:55)

Helga's Locket / Sid and Germs - S5-E7

Continuity mistake: Helga's Locket: When Abner takes the locket from Helga at the end, Helga chases after him. In the next shot, they are shown running past the basement window of the boarding house, but that's impossible because they started running away from the basement window in the previous shot.

Stuck in a Tree / Rhonda Goes Broke - S5-E10

Other mistake: Stuck in a Tree: In Arnold's imagination, when the gang passes the huge tree on the conveyor belt, notice how huge Sid is compared to Rhonda. It looks as if Sid was meant to be in front of Rhonda, but was instead improperly layered behind her. (00:07:43)

Continuity mistake: Ms. Perfect: When Lila and her father are eating dinner, Lila's spoon is in her can of beans in one shot.
