Notes
- This is one of the few episodes that show a real life TV show interlaced with the animation.
- D.W. pronounced exploratorium wrong in this episode.
- All of D.W's science experminets are of course wrong, here are the real explanations for them:
- 1. The H in H2O stands for hydrogen, and the O is for oxygen, the 2 is the atomic number. If you combine these two elements together you get water with one oxygen atom and two hydrogen atoms as a water molecule.
- 2. Inside your head is not "miles and miles of hair until your bald" in fact hair just grows without a source, baldness is caused by lack of hair hormones in age that dosen't compltly cause baldness.
- 3. Bones are in your pelvis behind.
- 4. Snakes did have feet, they evolved from lizards in prehistoric times but changing their enviroment, starting to silther rather than walk, causing feet to evole off. Even in they did happen to lose their feet running, it would be unlikey their offspring would be born with them.
- 5. There is no "guy running the factory for snowflakes" that is just a child myth. Snowflakes are not alike for weather reasons and how they are randomly created. Although recently identical snowflakes have been found.
- 6. D.W claims the sky is blue because other colors have already been taken by grass (green) dirt (brown) yellow (bananas) and red (apples). Yet this makes no sense as countless other objects in the universe have these colors. Before apples evoled on earth blood would be red for example, wood is brown and other plants are green etc. The sky is blue because as Arthur says it reflects light particles.
Quotes
- Arthur: Dad, D.W. is about to bother us.
- D.W.: I haven't done anything yet.
- Arthur: I know you. You're going to start saying, "What are you watching?", "What's that?", "What's happening?"
:D.W.: Oh yeah! PROVE IT!
- Arthur: Now do you see how stuff really works and how all your crazy experiments were wrong?
- D.W.: I only had one experiment, Arthur. I said one day you'd beg to take me here, and here I am. My experiment was a complete success: I proved I'm smarter than you.
- Arthur: Did what I think happened... happen?
