Brian: Look, I didn't do so good on this test. I just got one right. My name.
| Alex: But, we're swamped. We totally need more help with... (looking at an empty restaurant) ...all of our phone orders.
| Harper: How much coffee do I pore on the coffee cake?
| Alex: Mom, don't add your own moves. This isn't the '80s, this isn't Footgrease music.

Episode Goofs |
| |
While Alex and Harper are working together to stop the ice cream flow in the "Gurtbarn" restaurant, Harper finds a huge plastic ice cream cone and she throws the fake top off. The top rolls off the set, but in the next shot, it has come back and is rolling in the background. It's very unlikely it would manage to roll off the set and in again on that short time period.
