Lights Out - S2-E20

Revealing mistake: When Peter is on stage at his school for the talent show, Cindy gets into the disappearing lady booth and Peter closes the curtain. He says the magic words, yanks open the curtain and Cindy has disappeared. Look at the top left side of the booth and you can see where the stage curtain is piled up on top of the booth. There is just enough room for Susan Olsen to get out of the booth and then get back in.

Jan Brady: Well, all day long at school I hear how great Marcia is at this or how wonderful Marcia did that! Marcia, Marcia, Marcia.

54-40 and Fight - S1-E15

Question: Would someone please explain to me why Marcia did not just simply remove her dangly bracelet that endangered the girls standing in the house of cards competition after Carol said "Oh Marcia, Marcia, your bracelet"? It would have made it less stressful on her not to mention her team, and she wouldn't have had to restrain it with her other hand.

Answer: The dangling bracelet was used for dramatic purposes - to keep the audience on edge.

Answer: There were several episodes throughout the run of the show where Marcia was infatuated with a guy she went to school with. This bracelet could have been a gift from her then-boyfriend; as such, she would not want to take it off, as a sign of loyalty. A stupid thing to do, of course, but it's not a mistake for a character simply to be dumb.
