Correction: There is no mistake in this scene - both Cliff and Theo used the chess clock correctly. It's not Theo's job to start the clock before his turn, his clock started when Cliff stopped his. (And the scene starts in the middle of the game).

Correction: Watch the episode again. Cliff says he's enjoying his "morning off", not day. He still had to go into work. Since the kids went shopping after school, Cliff was at work in the late afternoon.

A Shirt Story - S1-E5

Corrected entry: When asked about the $95 Theo said that if he lived to be 90 years old that would be like a dollar a year. In this episode Theo is 14 years old, as stated by Cliff. If Theo wanted to equate his age to the value of the shirt he would need to live to 109 years old.

mirtom

Correction: The character is shown to be dumb and bad in math obviously. But also, he does say "like", showing he's speaking approximately.

Bad Dreams - S1-E3

Corrected entry: When Cliff dials the phone number to Vanessa's friend, it's obvious that he dialed "3" instead of "2", and still got the right number.

mirtom

Correction: Vanessa said the number "3" and when Cliff dials it he does in fact press "3" to call her bluff and call her friend.
