- In the shot that is sung "[...] I couldn't take it, just couldn't take it...", the Brain's flags was white in left side and red in right side, but after this, the colors are inverted.
- In Brain's third nightmare, Hyde has more strands of hair.
- In the part that is sung "[...] The book lady said:...", the Library desk is brown, but in the part sung "[...]I thought...", the desk is miscolored green.
