Goofs[]
- Mr. Burns says that both his parents died when he was little but in "Homer the Smithers" we see that Mrs. Burns is still alive at age of 122.
- Also in The Mansion Family he mentions that cause of his parents' death is because they got in his way. If he ran over them then he would already be a grown man not a child because it is very unlikely that he would drive a car as being a child.
- Also in "Rosebud" the flashback shows that he abandoned his parents when he was a kid along with his brother George and his teddy bear Bobo to live with a billionaire.
- Cassandra mentions that Sideshow Bob had no wedding ring, even though he was married to Francesca Terwilliger.
- It is unconfirmed whether or not Bob and Francesca divorced if that's the case.
- One of Bob's life goals say "Find Birth Father". Even though his actual birth father is Robert Terwilliger, Sr..
- The flashback takes place in 1935 and in it, Mr. Burns is a child, but in "Monty Burns' Fleeing Circus" we see a flashback from 1906 and it shows Mr. Burns as a child, so after 29 years Burns wouldn't have been a child anymore.
- The website that Lenny uses to buy his Christmas gifts doesn't have a top-level domain in its URL.
- Homer's address on his Kris Kringle Union card lists him as living at Springfield Beach, which the same place Sideshow Bob's card says.
