Corrected entry: Velvet looks out the window, and says she's dreaming, because she sees the whole village bringing her the horse. Her mother then looks out the window and comfirms that they are indeed bringing the horse to her, but how does her mother know this? Every kid in their family had a lottery ticket for the horse raffle.

Correction: If you listen closely, I think you can hear the people bringing the Pie say "Velvet." Also, the other Brown children bought a ticket to increase Velvet's chances of winning. The Pie was always going to be for her regardless of who had the winning ticket.

Continuity mistake: When Velvet is standing with Mr. and Mr. Edes after they catch the Pie at the beginning, from one angle both her hands are on the bridle, but from the reverse angle, her left hand is on the Pie's muzzle.
