Other mistake: When Gretchen is in Kelso's Corner Store, Mr. Kelso tells her that if she thinks she got the money in the wrong way, she should just give it back. In this shot, part of Mr. Kelso's shirt collar is incorrectly coloured red; then it changes to its proper tan colour mid-shot.
Other mistake: When Gretchen enters Kelso's Corner Store, the blue and yellow bicycles are slightly cut off at the bottom of the screen.
Continuity mistake: After Miss Grotke writes "The Zen of Homework" on the chalkboard, she holds the chalk in her right hand, but it disappears in the next shot.
Continuity mistake: At the start, when T.J. tells Gretchen to save up her allowance so she can buy Ruddler's Red Rocket, Gretchen's helmet strap has vanished; then it reappears a shot later.
Continuity mistake: When Randall begs Gretchen to do his homework, Mikey says, "Tutoring is just another word for helping," and his backpack is green. A few seconds later, it changes to blue.
Continuity mistake: When Gretchen's mother first sees Gretchen doing homework, the paper in front of Gretchen has three lines on it. In the next shot, there is only one line on it; then the paper is completely blank in the following shot. Then, when Gretchen falls asleep on her desk, the paper has three lines on it again, and Gretchen's pencil has disappeared from her hand.
