Buses, Bikes, and Subways


As much as I like this episode, there were just sooo many aspects that were very weird and effed up about it!

1. Just how far away was this factory from the city? And how late did the kids get back at night after Mr. Simmons decided to go all the way back to find Harold and Helga who were still missing? Certainly this must have caused him and the school A LOT of liability issues.

2. Wouldn't it have been more effective if Mr. Simmons did a roll call on the bus instead of a simple "head count?" That way he could note who was missing and who wasn't!

3. You'd think that at least one of the students at the front of the bus would have noticed Helga leave when she went to retrieve Harold. I mean how in the hell did nobody even notice anything?

4. I know that Helga was impatient to go to WrestleMania, but why would she even care about Harold being gone? I mean I don't see why she chose to make her life even more difficult than it already was!

On a side note, that scene where Harold was sucking from the chocolate fountain seemed pretty suggestive to me.

1. It could have been autumn or winter when it gets dark earlier.

2. I agree with you on that one.

3. That too.

4. Helga was irritated that Harold wasn't there as she thought he would hold the bus up while Mr Simmons went looking for him.
