Sid the Vampire Slayer / Big Sis - S5-E3
Other mistake: Sid the Vampire Slayer: When Arnold and Sid are in the bathroom, there are two close-up shots of Sid as he speaks to Arnold. In them, the reflection of the door handle is not reversed in the mirror. Also, the style of the door handle in the reflection is different. (00:05:08)
Monkeyman! / Buses, Bikes and Subways - S5-E1
Continuity mistake: Buses, Bikes, and Subways: Helga wears a watch on her right arm throughout the episode. However, when Helga approaches Sheena's uncle Earl and wakes him up, her watch is missing, then reappears when Earl's boat sinks. It disappears again when Helga comes up from the water, then reappears a moment later. (00:18:59)
Love and Cheese / Weighing Harold - S4-E7
Continuity mistake: Love and Cheese: When the sign for the Built-To-Hurl is first shown, it is spelled with a hyphen between "To" and "Hurl." When the sign is shown again, that hyphen is missing, then reappears a moment later. (00:07:19)
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.
