Mud Bowl / Gerald Moves Out - S2-E9
Revealing mistake: At the lunch room, the 5th graders threaten the 4th graders again. Gerald starts talking to Arnold. He and the dark-haired girl to his left are both noticeably overlaid onto the table, not behind it. About 20 seconds later, the same shot is back and they're behind the table as they should be. (00:06:00)







Answer: The episode doesn't really elaborate on who the kid was and what his motives were, so its pure speculation as to why he took it. Perhaps the kid could simply want a ball all for himself and decided to just take it, or was simply a rotten kid. The truth is the kid's motives are not important to the story other than it highlights Arnold was having a lot of trouble getting through the list.
