Goofs
- Jessie, Luke, and Ravi were disguised as waiters/waitresses, and the owner believed that they were. However, he should've recognized them, as he saw them just a few minutes before.
- Zuri said that Millie the Mermaid was going to be buried in her coconut bra, but she asked Emma which dress she chose for her.
- When the eggs fell through the bottom of the box, Jessie, Luke, and Ravi should have realized that the eggs weren't Kipling's, due to Kipling's eggs being much larger than the ones that were in the box
