* PacManFever: A variant. Episode 2x01 has Jake playing ''DonkeyKong'', with actual sound effects from the game. However, in the next scene of him playing, the sound is the death sound, followed by the level start music, which doesn't match what's happening on the screen (Mario completing the stage). Also, the "Bonus" number, which in the game counts ''down'' and serves as the timer, is here counting ''up'' so that an ArcNumber can be seen.
