  • Helga's been thinking about Arnold since she was three years old
  • If you look at the X-ray, two of Helga's teeth have giant holes in them; Helga should have been writhing in pain - but then again, this is Helga we're talking about
  • Nobody received credit for the dentist's voice
  • The dental hygenist's hair changes color from red to brown
  • The "camp fire lass" from "Field Trip" reappears, complete with her chocolate turtles
  • Helga is splashed with water from behind, yet the water came from Grandma, who was in front of her at the time
  • Is gas usually used to fill a cavity?  Every dentist I've ever been to used something like Novocaine
  • One of the Camp Fire Lasses looked like Gloria, right down to her shoes...
  • ...but her heels disappeared when she ran after Helga

Harold the Butcher
When Harold steals a ham from Mr. Green's shop, he makes up for it by working for him
Written by Joseph Purdy
Storyboard Direction by Stark Howell
Animation Direction by Larry Leichliter
Storyboard Artist: Kurt Dumas

Cast:

  • Harold's parents' first names (Jerry and Marilyn) are mentioned for the first time
  • Harold mentions prosciutto (a form of ham) and pork sausage, but they aren't Kosher either
  • In past episodes, Helga's been shown to live some distance from Arnold and the butcher shop, so what is her mother doing there?  Apparently, it's something she doesn't usually do, as he calls Mr. Green "Mr. Blue" (although Helga knows who Mr. Green is; she mentions him by name in "The Vacant Lot")
  • Speaking of Miriam, Kath E. Soucie wasn't credited for doing her voice, only as Mrs. Berman
