Goofs[]
- Lisa only thought that Bart was cheating just because he had 100% on his tests, which by itself does not prove that Bart was not following the system of students trusting each other not to cheat. Lisa just wanted herself to be in the right when she forced Bart to turn himself in and wouldn't admit that she was wrong to think that he was cheating just based on him getting 100% on everything. Besides, if Bart really was cheating, it's very likely that somebody else would have already turned him in.
- The detention quilt says "detention of '08", but this episode aired in 2013.
- Cookie Kwan is shown at the PTA meeting, even though her only child is a baby.
- Lisa ripped part of her hair off during one of the conversations with Bart, but some scenes later, her hair is intact.
