* "Operation Ruthless" saw Helga sabotage Arnold out of spending time with his love interest, Ruth. While successful, Arnold stated at the end that the challenge of even getting to know Ruth only made her that much more appealing. Next season, he did get to know Ruth better in "Arnold's Valentine", finding her shallow and quickly lost interest. This means, had Helga simply done nothing at the Cheese Festival, the whole TwoTimerDate plot could have been avoided entirely.
