    • In the episode "The Million Dollar Ghost," Sam could barely bike and said she hated exercise. Now she is one of the most fit people and doesn't mind exercise.
    • When Skulker is sucked into the Fenton Thermos in the beginning, his suit would definitely not fit.
    • If Dash has GPA of a D-, why is he on the football team? Normally, sports teams have strict guidlines of how bad someone's grades can be and still be on a team.
    • While running a mile in four minutes may be required to pass the Presidential Fitness Test, it is unlikely that a person would fail a high school gym class for not doing so.
    • When Danny and Dash are on the golf course, Danny was able to feel the fake grass. But he was wearing gloves that cover up all of his skin, so how could he tell by feeling the fake grass? Reply: People can feel things even if they're wearing clothes. He also could have seen the fake grass and then figure out where he was.
    • Dash and Danny's size change constantly throughout the episode. In one scene, they're half the size of a mouse, and in another scene, they're a lot smaller than a drop of sweat. Skulker's size also changes.
    • When Jack first opens the pizza, it's pepperoni and mushroom, yet when Danny and Dash are on the table at the end of the episode, it's only pepperoni.

    • (Outside FentonWorks) Sam: (With her boot on Tucker's back while he does push-ups) Come on, Foley. Keep going. Tucker: (Falls) I can't! Your boot weighs a ton! How 'bout a hand, Danny? (Danny applauds him) Oh, you're hilarious. Danny: Hey, when you got super powers, you can afford to be. Besides, why should I care about some stupid fitness test? Dash: (Comes out of nowhere) Because if you fail, I fail! Tucker: (Getting up) And if he fails at gym, that would blemish his stellar "D"-minus GPA. (Dash jumps over the fence and pushes Tucker to the ground) Danny: (On the ground; to Tucker) You don't have super powers, you don't get to be hilarious.
