Hey Arnold!

Operation Ruthless/The Vacant Lot - S1-E7

Abner Come Home / The Sewer King - S1-E16

Continuity mistake: Abner Comes Home: When Abner comes back to the boarding house at the end, Arnold starts running towards him, and there is no mud puddle. In the next few shots, a mud puddle suddenly appears for both of them to fall into and roll in. Then in the next wide shot, the mud puddle disappears, and in the last two shots of the episode, it returns once again. (00:11:09 - 00:11:48)

Summer Love (a.k.a. Beach Story) - S5-E9

Continuity mistake: When Helga sprinkles bread crumbs around Arnold and Summer, six seagulls come and fly above them. In the next shot, the shadows of the seagulls are visible, but there are only two seagull shadows. Then when both look up at them, there are only five seagulls flying above them instead of six. (00:11:26)

Summer Love (a.k.a. Beach Story) - S5-E9

Continuity mistake: When Arnold talks to Helga after overhearing her, he tells her that he heard everything she said. As Helga says, "You did?", the lifeguard stand that was behind her suddenly isn't there. Then when Arnold and Summer walk away from her, they are suddenly a lot further away from the lifeguard stand than they were before. (00:11:47 - 00:12:12)

Helga's Masquerade / Mr. Green Runs - S5-E2

Continuity mistake: Helga's Masquerade: When Arnold compliments Lila's bows, she says, "In fact, I'm certain I wear them just, every old day." Ironically, her right bow disappears mid-shot, and it remains missing in the following shot. It comes back shortly after. (00:01:50)

Love and Cheese / Weighing Harold - S4-E7

Continuity mistake: Love and Cheese: When Arnold and Lila's boat starts sinking, it starts to move backwards and hits a huge rock at the edge of the waterfall. When Lila almost falls and Arnold holds her up, the rock is gone. It reappears in the following shots. (00:10:07 - 00:10:40)

Grandpa's Sister / Synchronized Swimming - S4-E12

Continuity mistake: Synchronized Swimming: In the pool scene at the beginning, we see a close-up shot of Connie and Maria. In the next shot, they are nowhere to be found. The three kids surrounding the pool in the beginning also disappear. (This happens because the opening shots are reused from the episode "Sixth Grade Girls.") (00:12:01)

Runaway Float / Partners - S2-E20

Continuity mistake: Runaway Float: When the beeper float first starts to speed out of control, in one of the shots, Helga is wearing her regular outfit, not her beeper costume. On top of that, the kids on the float are smiling and waving, not freaking out like they were before. (00:08:39)

Save The Tree / New Teacher - S2-E1

Girl Trouble / School Dance - S3-E18

Continuity mistake: Besides the fact that when Helga is sharpening her pencil, the desk arrangement changes, one of the students visible when she looks at Arnold is... Helga. This happens because the shot is taken from the episode "Helga's Love Potion."

Answer: No, he did not. He is seen getting off the bus with a suitcase, so he must have not been home for a few days so there is no way he could have known.
