Goofs[]

Josh was seen sleeping on the couch, but in the Pilot, he said that he can't sleep on the couch because he has lumbar problems.
- However, he could have found a solution to those problems.
When Josh pours the goo into the red balloon trying to get Megan, at first he pours goo in the balloon but when he explains to Drake about getting Megan, if you look very closely when he's holding the balloon, you can see that it's not goo at all, it's actually water that's inside the balloon or maybe Josh mixed goo and water together.
The host would have had Drake's team disqualified for cheating since Josh was giving Drake the answers.
The host should also not have accepted money from a student for any reason.
