Plot hole: In this episode Dewey tells Francis that their aunt died from a cat eating her face (or something involving a cat mutilating her face) and we find out this is how she really did die. But then why would it be an open-casket if her face was destroyed?
Suggested correction: Morticians can do fantastic work - this is very common.
Other mistake: Lois wins the truck, which is never seen again.
Suggested correction: Just because we're not told what happened to the truck doesn't mean a mistake occurred. There's a number of valid reason we don't see it again (especially when only 3 more episodes were produced in the series).
Plot hole: There is no way that Malcolm would have been able to write that message on his stomach. He gets found by the nurse and then we see him in a room getting some medicine and then he is in the operating room.
Suggested correction: Actually before is given some type of sedation before the surgery he is wearing a different hospital gown. He would have had enough time to write the message on his stomach when he was asked to change into the blue gown.
Helmut was afraid Malcolm would run off again, so he likely changed him into the blue hospital gown after he tied him up to the bed. Malcolm could not scribble the message if his entire body was restrained. In the operating room we see he cannot move due to the injection Helmet gave him which eliminates the possibility of him writing the note here. Malcolm probably convinced the doctor who ran the blood test to have one of the surgeons secretly write the note after they prepped him in the OR.
