Meek for a Week

"Meek for a Week" is the first half of the seventeenth episode of season 1 of the animated children's series Arthur. It originally aired on January 13th, 1997.

Summary
Muffy bets Francine she can't be nice to everyone for a whole week and she can't tell anyone about why she's being nice. Arthur and his friends begin to worry when Francine starts acting nice for no apparent reason, and they fear that she may "pop" if she continues to bottle up her anger. They try fruitlessly to diffuse her.

Goofs

 * When Francine approaches to Muffy and screeches her bike to a stop, the tires on her bike are shown white in that scene, although her bike has gray to black tires in its other appearances.


 * When the Brain is wearing his helmet, his ears are not shown; although the helmet has openings for the ears to be shown for top-eared species like aardvarks, bears, cats, rabbits, and etc.
 * Arthur and Buster were not wearing their baseball caps during a baseball game.
 * Right before Muffy tells Francine she's "So rude" the helmet hole showing her hair flashes yellow, the same color as the helmet for a second.
 * At the Sugar Bowl, when Francine sits next to Arthur and is offered a cherry soda which she rejects but tries it anyway, she is sitting next to the outside, and Arthur is sitting next to the wall; but after Francine finishes off the soda, she and Arthur are sitting on the opposite side of the booth, and Arthur is sitting next to the outside while Francine is sitting next to the wall.
