Error[]
- Goof: When the girls imagine themselves having their mugshots taken, they're shown to be roughly around 4 foot 5 inch - 4 foot 7 inch. This is incorrect as they're all actually 12 inches taller than that (Alex around 5 foot 4 inch - 5 foot 5 inch and Sam and Clover being 5 foot 6 inch), though Alex is still shown to be the shortest of the three in this image, which is true.
- Goof: It is never explained how Alex got her shoes back when she gave them to the butler at the palace.
- Goof: Malaysia is spelled "Malaisia" in this episode.
- Goof: When showing a map of Japan and Asia, the country of Thailand is coloured in blue instead of green (land), making it seem part of the ocean. Also, the scale of countries are inaccurate, with Korea and Japan being tiny, and mainland Asia being massive. Also, many islands and entire countries are missing from the map, such as the Philippines, Taiwan and the Chinese island of Hainan, and Jeju Island in South Korea.
- Goof: When the girls arrived at Keiko's Home, where we see a close-up of the girl's muddy feet, Clover's pants are shown to be long enough to cover her knees, but in the next shot the pants are shown to be short enough to see part of her knees. In the same close up, Alex's socks are shown to be lowered down but in the next shot they are not. Also, where we see a close-up pf the girl's feet after arriving at the house, the reflection under Clover's feet shows that her right leg has more mud on than her actually leg.
- Goof: When the spies meet Keiko and the Emperor (animatronic), Alex's eyes are shown to be blue instead of brown. This repeats a few more times in this episode.
- Goof: When Sam, Clover and Alex lower the flooded slide at the beginning of the episode, Sam is no longer handcuffed, but still is when she is fished out by the clamp.
- Goof: When Clover and Alex started calling Sam "Sam no fun" at the mall, the sleeves of Alex's shirt are missing.
- Goof: When Sam, Clover and Alex faced Eisenstein and his animatrons inside the jet, the prime minister of Malaysia is among the assembled world leaders despite him having been just brought back to his home country after the destruction of his animatron imposter.
