Arnold's Thanksgiving - S3-E14
Other mistake: When Arnold is in his room putting on his costume, his reflection in the mirror shows his buttons on the left side of his clothes. Then, when Arnold answers the door, his buttons are on the same side; the reflection was not reversed. (00:09:26)
6th Grade Girls/The Baseball - S1-E5

Hall Monitor / Harold's Bar Mitzvah - S2-E15
Continuity mistake: Harold's Bar Mitzvah: In the beginning, when Stinky asks Harold if he wants to play stickball, there is no wristband on his arm.

Later on, when Harold comes out of the synagogue, his wristbands are back on his arms. (00:12:03)
Full Moon / Student Teacher - S4-E1
Revealing mistake: Full Moon: When Harold tells Arnold, "Remember when I said you didn't have any guts because you wouldn't moon Principal Wartz?" his mouth briefly disappears. This is easier to see in slow motion but is still visible at normal speed. (00:11:16)
Full Moon / Student Teacher - S4-E1

Full Moon / Student Teacher - S4-E1
Continuity mistake: Full Moon: When Principal Wartz tells Arnold to see him every day after school for the next four weeks, the words on his office door are yellow. About a second later, they change to red, then back to yellow. (00:02:57)
Full Moon / Student Teacher - S4-E1

Full Moon / Student Teacher - S4-E1
Other mistake: Full Moon: When Arnold tells Sid, Stinky, and Harold that he was given four weeks' detention, Harold tells him to not rat on them. Arnold says he won't tell, and when he walks away, his hair passes right through Sid's head. (00:03:30)

Continuity mistake: Tour de Pond: When Rex notices that Arnold's boat is winning and starts running, the red and yellow squares on his grandfather's badge change to red and black. (00:10:18)
Tour de Pond / Teachers Strike - S2-E18
Continuity mistake: Tour de Pond: When Rex's grandfather walks up to Arnold's Grandpa at the end, his badge has eight squares on it, but in the next shot, it changes to four stripes. (00:11:20)
Tour de Pond / Teachers Strike - S2-E18
Other mistake: Tour de Pond: When Arnold, Gerald, and Grandpa are first shown at the Tour de Pond race, their ship is not sitting on the sidewalk, but rather on the edge of it, which makes it look like it’s floating in mid-air. (00:05:02)
Tour de Pond / Teachers Strike - S2-E18
Continuity mistake: Tour de Pond: When Gerald puts the boat made out of the block of wood in the fish tank, the sail is pointing towards the right, but when the boat sinks, it's pointing towards the left. (00:02:18)
Simmons' Documentary / Big Bob's Crisis - S5-E20

Simmons' Documentary / Big Bob's Crisis - S5-E20
Revealing mistake: Simmons' Documentary: When Phoebe asks Mr. Simmons, "If we're required to do book reports, do we need to choose a book?", her mouth disappears twice. This is easier to see in slow motion, but it's still visible at normal speed. (00:04:27)
Back to School / Egg Story - S4-E8
Continuity mistake: Egg Story: When Arnold shows the little chick to the class, Phoebe is sitting behind Harold, but she is suddenly standing in the next shot. (00:22:30)
Answer: The episode doesn't really elaborate on who the kid was and what his motives were, so its pure speculation as to why he took it. Perhaps the kid could simply want a ball all for himself and decided to just take it, or was simply a rotten kid. The truth is the kid's motives are not important to the story other than it highlights Arnold was having a lot of trouble getting through the list.
