Episode Goofs |

In the opening scene Brendan is drinking chocolate syrup and claims to have already drank the milk before so could make chocolate milk (in his belly). Though it must have been quite a while before that cause there was no milk present. And Dana (who was studying in the kitchen) had apparently not seen him drink it cause she didn't remember it.
