Sid - Sam Gifaldi
Lorenzo - Victor Cohn-Lopez
Stinky - Christopher P. Walberg
Harold - Justin Shenkarow
Brainy - Craig Bartlett

- Somebody Check The Running Order: presumably, Lorenzo is the title character
in "Rich Kid", but that story was first shown after this one
- The pairs of partners: Arnold and Gerald, Helga and Phoebe, Rhonda and Nadine,
Sid and Lorenzo, Harold and Stinky, and Iggy and Eugene
- One of the things Arnold's remote control does is turn his potato-powered alarm
clock on
- Talk About Bad Hair Days:
in the locker room, Sid's hair goes from stringy to full and
back to stringy
- Is Arnold that
afraid of somebody using his home computer that he has a password on it?
- Craig Bartlett is credited as Brainy, but Brainy doesn't "speak" in
this episode...
- ...however, he does put his finger up his nose (when Sid goes over to Lorenzo

her to a fight

Cast:
Arnold - Phillip Van Dyke
Helga, (uncredited) Sheena - Francesca Marie Smith
Phoebe - Anndi L. McAfee
Rhonda, (uncredited) Mary - Olivia Hack
Stinky - Christopher P. Walberg
Patty - Danielle Judovitz
Big Bob Pataki - Maurice LaMarche
Miriam Pataki - Kath E. Soucie
- The cafeteria special: kielbasa, beans, baked potatoes, and flan
- Sheena is eating lunch with Ruth
- Phoebe is not someone you would expect to be laughing at jokes about someone
- then again, they're Helga's jokes
- Nobody seemed to notice that Helga got mud on her face despite the fact that
the fight was held inside the gymnasium
- ...or that there was no blood (then again, they're trying to maintain a TV-Y
rating)
- Where Have I Seen That Before: a planned school fight ends with what sounds like
a brawl taking place behind closed doors; it sounds like a story from Doug (and it was; "Doug's Big Brawl")
- Once again (as in "Gerald's Tonsils"), Sheena has a line, but Francesca
Marie Smith is credited only as Helga
- The credits include "SPECIAL THANKS MATT GROENING"; Matt Groening is
the creator of The Simpsons
as well as the brother of Hey Arnold!
creator Craig Bartlett's wife...
- and someone told me an interesting theory: did Matt design Big Patty? She
does look like a Simpsons character, with large overbite and little chin (but then again, so does Helga), and Matt's
oldest sister does happen to be named Patty
