Stolen Bike

"Stolen Bike" is the second half of the 29th episode of season 1 of the animated children's series Arthur. It originally aired on May 26th, 1997.

Summary
Francine's bike is too small for her so her dad finds his old bike for her, except she is embarrassed by the rusty old bike. She hides it and pretends it's stolen when it is accidentally taken way by a garbage truck.

Goofs

 * Stolen Bike reveals a story about Francine outgrowing her old bicycle and getting her father's junky old bicycle and later restoring it. However, that same bicycle has been shown in some episodes that take place from when Francine was in second grade, long before this story's time-frame.
 * While Francine is brushing her teeth, the #1 on the front of her pajama top is missing, but reappears after she finishes brushing her teeth.
 * Straight after Oliver pulls the cover off of the completely restored bicycle, it is first shown smaller and about the size of Francine's old bicycle she outgrew, but later shows its actual size.
 * It seems a little odd that Francine was not grounded by her parents. However they may have understood how she felt and decided against that sort of thing.
