I've been working on the screenshots for "Slobber Power". I just got the part where Elbone mentions Rocky, right before Rocky is shown back in the village. I noticed an error in what Elbone said in relation to Rocky. Elbone said, "I wish Rocky was here to see this." Grammatically that is wrong the writers should have made that line, "I wish Rocky were here to see this." Why is it were instead of was in this case, that would be because that "I wish Rocky were", is a subjunctive. That is something many people easily miss and get wrong. Here is a link to a page that describes what a subjunctive is.

I just noticed that issue today when I was doing the screenshots, and when I heard that line, I knew right away that it was wrong, and why it was wrong. It even sounded wrong to me, which is a good indication in cases like this. I just thought I would let you know. I am considering putting a note about the grammatical error in the episode "Slobber Power" in the trivia section of that episodes page. We don't see many grammatical mistakes, and to no surprise, the first grammatical mistake I caught in an episode was a mistake in not using the subjunctive, where it should be used.
