*In "The World of Tomorrow," while at the museum, Sue Ellen and George do the same thing that their look a likes did last year. Sue Ellen (and her look alike) rubs their feet on the carpet and shock Binky, at the static electricity exhibit. George (and his look alike) set off an alarm by sneaking and stealing a model car from an exhibit.

*In Mr. Ratburn's other third grade class, the one Binky was in, there are kids that look, wear colors, and have characteristics just like Francine, Sue Ellen, Fern, Jenna, Arthur, Buster, George, and the Brain. The same thing applies to the students in Mr. Price-Jones' class. However, Arthur's lookalike is a rabbit, Brain's is a cat, Francine's is a monkey (like her), Sue Ellen's is a bear, Fern's is a rat or a poodle, George's is apparently an antelope, Muffy's is an aardvark, and Buster's is apparently a bear.
