Errors

  • Kelly is a high school student?
  • Kelly is overreacting a bit when she claimed Spike was trying to send them to the moon. Near the end of the episode, Betty and Ronald's hot air balloon traveled up to a certain point before it fell back down after freezing.
  • Benjy spends more time at Kelly's than he does at his own house, which still hasn't been seen at this point.
