Continuity mistake: Enter The Cheatrix: During the final boss battle between Bart, Lisa and the Ape, you have to strike the ape with Lisa's hand lightning and battle Kung fu fighters entering through elevators. If you completely ignore these fighters and just go straight to taking the ape down, the ape will die after 3 lightning strikes and fall into the game waste stuff. The conclusion clip starts to play where Professor Frink gives the manual to Bart and Lisa, and yet the Kung Fu fighters don't seem to be there anymore, even if you didn't bother to take them down.

Casual Person

Plot hole: Enter The Cheatrix: The level shows Bart and Lisa chase the ape holding Professor Frink. Each part of the level consists of Bart and Lisa running through each place the ape went through. If that is so, while it has been shown to jump a few meters, it doesn't make sense how the ape was able to jump over two huge buckets of blood that was almost five times as more as a jump than it can usually handle. Even if the ape swam through the blood, there should still be blood on it or Professor Frink's clothes.
