Mistakes/Goofs

  • Goof (continuity error): There is a very large fish tank in Sean Fretthold's bedroom when Finn and Rachel go to visit him. When Rachel returns to visit Sean by herself the fish tank is gone.

Trivia

  • Puck approaches Mercedes at her locker and opens a conversation with "So what makes Super Mario Brothers 3 so amazing was the Star World. None of the others had anything like that." Super Mario Brothers 3 has no star world; instead, it is Super Mario World that has a star world. Super Mario Brothers 3 is a game for the "Original Nintendo" gaming console, while Super Mario World is a game for the "Super Nintendo" console.
  • Having had his Mohawk shaved Puck compares himself to Andre Agassi as a man who lost his strength with his hair. In reality Agassi was bald throughout his tennis career and wore an extravagant wig in his earlier wins, rather than actually having any hair.
