Continuity Errors

• In this episode, Rod and Todd are already students at the Onward Christian Schoolboys Academy, while Ned is opposed to them attending Springfield Elementary.

Goofs

• In one scene, Lindsey Naegle was seen in the audience during the play. In another scene, she was one of the actresses.
• The same thing happened to Hans Moleman. He was even seen in the audience and on the stage in the same time.
• Rod and Todd tell Edna that they're not allowed to play Scrabble because "only God can make words". However, Ned was seen playing Scrabble alone in Alone Again, Natura-Diddily. And if Ned is really a devout Christian, then he can't have a double standard, because hypocrisy is a sin.
• Edna pulls Rod and Todd out of a Christian school and puts them in Springfield Elementary. The Flanders family seems to act as that Rod and Todd are newcomers to Springfield Elementary, however, they have been at the school in previous episodes, with Ned being a member of its PTA.

• An employee could have changed the video and title.
• Lisa and Marge could have looked at a different stand.
• If the display was automated, the screen could simply have switched to showing a different wedding. This can be done using presentation software such as PowerPoint. However, the title changed as well.
• In the scene where Marge is telling Helen about the canapes, her mouth disappears for a frame.
• During the Passion Play, Hans Moleman is seen in the audience. He is then seen on a cross to the left of Homer.
