Trivia

Notes

• This was the first time Arthur's hiccups were heard. The second will be the end of Arthur VS. The Piano & The third will be Hic Or Treat.

Goofs

• In some scenes in Mr. Ratburn's classroom, there were even some students who actually belong in the other classes, and there were sixteen desks instead of the actual twelve.
• Arthur's paper disappears when D.W. ask him what his story is about.
• While Arthur is writing his story in the living room while Bionic Bunny is showing on television, the television set is brown; but in all other episodes, it is gray.
• One VERY interesting goof is that when Arthur is in the classroom in one shot D.W is clearly seen outside the window, why is she there if she isn't even at his school?
• How can Mr. Ratburn expect Arthur's real story tomorrow if it's Friday?
