Suggested correction: At no point does Lisa turn over the resume. She takes it, reads it and says it needs padding out.

Suggested correction: Lisa does turn over the resume, but there's nothing typed on the back. She's wasn't turning the resume over to continue reading it, she was just looking to see if there was something more because it was one line, hence her response of needing padding.

The Front - S4-E19

Continuity mistake: At one point you see a rear view of Marge's head when Homer is talking to her. For some reason her skin is a darker shade than it usually is. It can't be a shadow on Marge because her clothes don't look any darker.
