The Beeper Queen
The Beeper Queen
Big Bob's back injury keeps him from work, so Miriam goes to work for him, and soon spends more and more time involved in the business - and less and less time with Helga

    * If you ask me, "professional" Miriam looks a lot like Olga
    * How did Miriam lose her license?  Presumably, she had one in "Road Trip"
    * Helga has "Buffalo Chips" in her lunch - buffalo chips are, well, something you try not to step in
Oscar Can't Read?
No, he can't - until Arnold helps him

Cast:

Grandpa - Dan Castellaneta

    * If Oskar can't read, how does he know where to deliver newspapers?
    * If Oskar can't write his own name, who put his name on all of the Secret Santa slips in "Arnold's Christmas"?  (If Suzie did, she would have said something)
    * No wonder Oskar does so poorly at the racetrack - he can't read a racing form (that's a newspaper that shows how the horses did in their previous races)
    * When Arnold holds A Tale of Two Cities and reads the title, he's holding it upside-down
    * Oskar could have just called a taxi and told him to stop near the boarding house - but that assumes Oskar has enough money for a crosstown cab ride
