Hey Arnold!

Other mistake: In the closed-captioning, when Arnold and Gerald "touch thumbs" (and you hear that "sproing" sound), the caption says "[glass shatters]"

Door #16 / Arnold as Cupid - S1-E10

Other mistake: Arnold as Cupid: When Oskar gives Arnold breakfast, besides the fact that the objects move from the left side of the tray to the right between shots, look at the glass of orange juice as Oskar lowers the tray to Arnold. Despite Oskar never rotating the tray around, the glass of orange juice glides itself over to the top left corner of the tray. Very weird. (00:14:34)

Upvote valid corrections to help move entries into the corrections section.

Suggested correction: Like you state, most of the other lockers have padlocks, which means that some don't. You can even see some lockers without padlocks in the beginning. This is not a reason as to why Arnold and Gerald's lockers having no padlocks is a mistake. It more has to do with the fact that their lockers in particular should have padlocks, because they usually have them in other appearances. Edit: While I do agree with what I said, I now think that changing the mistake's wording would have been a better option than adding a correction, as Arnold and Gerald's lockers not having padlocks is still a mistake on its own.

Runaway Float / Partners - S2-E20

Other mistake: Runaway Float: When Arnold tears apart the big beeper on the parade float, the float's platform is missing, which makes it look like Bob and Nick are on the road. This happens again after Arnold stops the float, which makes it look like Bob and Nick are floating as a result. (00:10:19)

Best Man / Cool Party - S3-E12

Other mistake: In the scene where Arnold meets the gang in the alley way, they give ideas to crash Rhonda's party. When Curly tells his idea to go to the zoo and free all the animals and there are shots of the gang looking at him confused,in two of the scenes, you'll notice that when Stinky and someone else looks at him, the background is at the school, not the alley.

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.
