Goofs/Errors[]
- Dexter's mom opens the front door for the girls,yet there is no window next to it. The fireplace is in correct position of the living room, but from the outside view of the house there is suppose to be a window next to the door. Yet we see no window implying that the mistake was either overlooked, the episode was rushed, or cartoon logic was implemented.
