Arthur S1 E4 - "D.W.'s Imaginary Friend" / "Arthur's Lost Library Book"

Go To

D.W.'s Imaginary Friend:

  • Fanon: With "Baby Steps" revealing D.W. created her imaginary friend Nadine when she was three and this episode saying D.W. just created Nadine, some fans have come to believe this episode takes place a year prior to the current time, when D.W. is 3 and Arthur is 7. It also helps that the characters sound slightly younger and Baby Kate and Pal - the latter especially coming into the family when Arthur was 8 - don't appear in the episode.

Arthur's Lost Library Book:

  • Captain Obvious Reveal: Binky being the culprit may have been semi-surprising if the episode didn't do such a terrible job of concealing the fact it was him in the first place. Seriously, nobody else on the entire cast wears an orange shirt and has his color skin (fur?). Did they really think nobody would notice?
  • Narm: Arthur has a scary dream where he's dragged to the library by a rubber arm throughout the night. It would be scarier if he weren't screaming all of his usual Stock Screams the entire time (even rarely-used screams like his "Yeeeowwwwwwwww!").
