Continuity mistake: Hall Monitor: After Phoebe's eyeglasses are stepped on, when she tells Helga, "Out with the old Phoebe, in with the new," Phoebe's belt buckle and two brown pouches have vanished, then reappear in the next shot.

Then, when Phoebe's classmates share how they miss the "old" Phoebe, her buckle and the two brown pouches vanish, but they all reappear in a moment. (00:05:05)

Tour de Pond / Teachers Strike - S2-E18

Continuity mistake: Tour de Pond: When Arnold makes a boat out of a block of wood, there is a blue cup on the newspapers with gray scissors and another orange object in it. In the next shot, the cup becomes green, and the scissors and other object become pink. As the scene continues, they change colours a few more times. The pencils also become the same colour as the newspapers. (00:02:11 - 00:03:49)

Suggested correction: Other than the few episodes that take place during a specific time of year; these episodes are not meant to be taken in chronological order. Just roughly in the same 4th grade school year.

Suggested correction: I agree with the other correction, but it's also worth noting that in the production order, "Teacher's Strike" was made before "New Teacher" was. They were just aired out of order, just like many of the other episodes.

Runaway Float / Partners - S2-E20

Continuity mistake: Runaway Float: When Arnold first sees the beeper float, he says, "How can they control that thing?", and Gerald is sitting on the curb to the right of Arnold. In the next shot, Gerald is suddenly behind him. Arnold is also a lot further away from the curb than he originally was. (00:08:16)

Runaway Float / Partners - S2-E20

Continuity mistake: Runaway Float: The big beeper float constantly changes appearance during the parade. Some examples: The sign saying "Let's Go Downtown" on the front changes to "Let' Go Downtown" in one shot. The sign saying "Let's Go Downtown" on the back is missing in one shot. The orange base is sometimes blue. The blue city design around the base sometimes isn't there, and it even changes colour. (00:08:17)

Longest Monday / Eugene's Pet - S2-E4

Continuity mistake: In "Longest Monday" at one point in the episode, Arnold and Gerald run off of a bus and down an alley. Two fifth graders come chasing after them. In the next scene, you see Arnold and Gerald hiding in the sewer under the 5th graders. Arnold then crawls through a very narrow tube, and Gerald follows. You then see the end of the tube and Gerald come out of the it first, and Arnold climbs out last. It would be impossible for Arnold and Gerald to switch places inside the tube because it was way too narrow.

The List/Haunted Train - S1-E8

Question: Why did that boy steal Arnold's ball? Was that the whole reason he came to the park? He seemed awfully obnoxious and destined to ruin Arnold's day, just wanting more clarity. Thank you.

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.
