Helga's Show
When Helga does unflattering (but accurate) impressions of her friends,
they start ignoring her, but they don't think her "friendly" routine isn't any better

- Most of Helga's impressions sounded a little like the person she was impersonating
- but Rhonda was right when she said that Helga's impression of her didn't sound anything like her
- Rhonda did an impression of Helga in "Helga's Makeover"
- This is the second time in three years that "Old Betsy" has been mentioned
(the first was in "Downtown as Fruits")
- It's a little out of character for Arnold to be the one to tell Helga to go back
to the unflattering impressions
- Arnold's hat is
in the middle of his head, isn't it? It only looks like it's off to one side when his face isn't being shown
straight on (also, the fact that he has five "points" of hair on one side and four on the other might
have something to do with it)
- When Joey is shown in close-up, his missing tooth looks like it's there but it's
covered with something black
- ...and his missing tooth keeps reappearing and disappearing in the last scenes

The Flood
Arnold and his classmates are stuck inside P.S. 118 because of a flood, and "cabin fever" starts to take
its toll

- Where were the other teachers? Do they all run out when the bell rings,
like Miss Slovak did in "Spelling Bee"?
- Brainy disappears between the time they leave the classroom and the time Arnold
finds them in the art supplies room
- Mr. Simmons sings line three of The
Battle Hymn of the Republic before line two
- Speaking of singing, the "Rats" song was first heard in "Quantity
Time"
- And speaking of "Quantity Time", in that story they got out of school
for Spring Break on time, and there wasn't any flood; how many Spring Breaks does this school have? (Then
again, on The Simpsons, they've
celebrated Christmas a number of times without anybody getting any older...)
- Grandpa's rubber raft got much bigger between the time he left the greenhouse and the time he arrived (and isn't Grandma
the one who usually does the rescues, as in "Das Subway"?)
