Errors[]
- In the official upload of the episode, a scene from "Goo" is erroneously shown in the thumbnail. In addition, the "A" in "Around" is not capitalised.
- After the bus crashes into the pool, when Mr. Noisy says "Stubborn", Mr. Grumpy's regular hat can be seen in front of his other hat.
- The amount of seagulls chasing Mr. Fussy changes between shots. When the seagulls approach Mr. Fussy, there are 25. In the scene where hearts appear over the seagulls, there are 15. When Mr. Fussy runs away and the seagulls chase him, there are 25 again. Finally, when they reappear in the ending scene, there are 10 seagulls.
- In the ending scene:
- Mr. Bump is screaming when he flies with the Zoom Boots, but his mouth doesn't move until after he crashes out of the other side of the billboard and the screaming stops.
- Mr. Stubborn is nowhere to be seen when the bus is driven out of the pool, even though he is the driver and appeared during his segment.
