Goofs

 * In Arthur's dream about running his own catering business, he says he had his 18th birthday and was married to Francine, although marriage law in the United States was since restricted to couples ages 18 and over.


 * Also, the son in the dream looks exactly like Arthur and is purely an aardvark, although if Arthur and Francine had children, their children would usually be half-aardvark and half-monkey, since Arthur is an aardvark and Francine is a monkey. However, it might be likely that Arthur would appear to have married another aardvark, and then divorced her, and then married Francine where she would rather be the aardvark son's stepmother.
 * Arthur and his friends mention that the worn-out glove was a "glove that won last year's championship". However, Arthur did not have the talent for baseball until in Arthur Makes the Team, which took place in his and his classmates' third grade year.
 * Arthur and Francine have fallen in love in Arthur's Valentine so it is likely for Arthur and Francine that they would fall in love at that point.
