Thanksgiving - S1-E9
Factual error: The scene where Kitty is making peanut butter celery for Thanksgiving appetizers; she is using Skippy brand peanut butter and the packaging is not from the 70's, it's the current packaging. (00:05:10 - 00:06:05)

In 1984, the park was purchased by Six Flags Corporation, becoming the 7th Six Flags park."
