Continuity mistake: Grand Theft Scratchy: Marge, Lisa and the mob need to destroy two vans, then rebuild two ice-cream trucks and rebuild a sweet store. Behind all of this is a barrier. As soon as the cut scene starts, Marge and Lisa (without the mob) are standing next to the sweet store walking by and notice Poochie and the barriers aren't there anymore. Then as the cut scene ends and it cuts back to gameplay, the mob has reappeared next to Marge and Lisa and the barriers behind the trucks are back. Although the barriers were never visible during the cut scene, the game play part of the level shown barriers completely covering anything behind the two trucks, so Marge and Lisa still wouldn't have been able to see Poochie.

Trivia: This game offers 16 levels with different 2-character groupings. There are seven levels with Homer and Bart (eight if you count Game Over for the Wii and PSP versions), three with Bart and Lisa, two with Marge and Lisa, one with Homer and Lisa and one with Homer and Marge. However, there are no levels in the game that feature a 2-character grouping between Marge and Bart. The closest the game ever gets to this is the 4-character grouping Game Over (but only for the Xbox 360 and PS3 versions).
