Experiment - S5-E18

Revealing mistake: In the first scene, Lois is feeding Jamie while talking to Dewey. In the next clip, it changes to just a prop baby doll toy with a beanie covering a majority of his face. (00:04:25)

Suggested correction: Just because we're not told what happened to the truck doesn't mean a mistake occurred. There's a number of valid reason we don't see it again (especially when only 3 more episodes were produced in the series).

Kicked Out - S4-E12

Plot hole: Malcolm mentions how his parents would flip if they knew he was still dating his lying girlfriend. But in the episode before (while in the car with Lois, at the end) he mentions how his girlfriend has him guessing what she wants to do. The way he says it, makes it known that he is still dating her. He says it in present tense. Therefore, they already know for sure, from his own mouth.

Lois's Birthday - S2-E3

Visible crew/equipment: When Lois gets in the car after she gets offended by the fact that everyone in the family forgot her birthday, you can see a cameraman with the camera reflected on the rear window when she leaves. (00:10:15)

Humilithon - S4-E2

Continuity mistake: When Hal starts to fight with Lionel with the mop at the school when Hal turns his back you can see it is wet from the mop a few scenes before he hit them and then the frame before Lionel strikes Hal with the mop his shirt is dry again. (00:17:05)

Funeral - S1-E11

Continuity mistake: When we see Dewey's friend at the table eating cereal he is eating cereal and the bowl is full of milk. In the next shot the bowl is full of cereal and there is barely any milk.

Opening theme song: Yes, no, maybe, I don't know, can you repeat the question? You're not the boss of me now, You're not the boss of me now, You're not the boss of me now, and you're not so big. You're not the boss of me now, You're not the boss of me now, You're not the boss of me now, and you're not so big. Life is unfair.

Answer: Francis is only allowed to talk on the phone at school for three minutes a day. I think the code gives him free access to talk to his girlfriend.
