Behind the scenes

In another episode to come "Secret Swapper of Doom," Professor Utonium also experienced a similar problem to Blossom, only his secrets were revealed to the public, instead of lies made up by Silico.

Errors

Why does Blossom automatically assume that the person running Silico Industries would actually be called Silico since she's never met or heard of him before? It's possible that Silico, as the owner, would've presumably been mentioned as the owner at some point.
Big Joey doesn't look the way he should.
In the flashback, Silico and the Powerpuff Girls are the same age, so why is Silico now an adult, but the girls have remained the same age?
