Emily has been a character since the start of the show, but her last name has been a mystery until this point (even being lampshaded in "D.W. Swims with the Fishes"). Muffy's Big Buddy sheet reveals her full name as Emily Leduc.

Butt-Monkey: Emily. Almost nothing goes her way the first day of kindergarten. From accidentally splattering paint on herself and other kids, to disgusting the other kids when D.W. accidentally blabs she has a liver sandwich for lunch, to Muffy losing her during their Big Buddy session.

Significant Name Overlap
 Arthur's First Day / int_7cd6822e
comment
Significant Name Overlap: Downplayed. There's both Dora Winifred (Arthur's sister, who goes by D.W.) and Dora Velez (the new kindergarten teacher, who goes by Dotty). D.W. doesn't want to use her real name on her nametag, and Dotty understands, as they both dislike their first names. It's somewhat implied that meeting another Dora may be the reason D.W. is finally comfortable with the name in Arthur's plot in D.W. and the Beastly Birthday (though that was All Just a Dream).

comment
Continuity Nod: Buster asks if Arthur has his lucky pencil from "Arthur's Lucky Pencil." Buster also has his good luck hat from "Friday the 13th." Muffy and Francine briefly discuss the blog they created over the summer when Muffy went to Camp Elysium. This happened in "The Last Day," an episode focused on the last day of 3rd grade.

Given Name Reveal: Emily has been a character since the start of the show, but her last name has been a mystery until this point (even being lampshaded in "D.W. Swims with the Fishes"). Muffy's Big Buddy sheet reveals her full name as Emily Leduc. The class rosters also reveal the previously unknown last names of both Brain's cousin Cheikh and Alex, the gray rabbit boy in Arthur's class; Diouf and Davidson, respectively.

comment
Accidental Misnaming: Emily's nametag doesn't stick, as one of the first signs that her day won't go perfectly. The kindergarten teacher later refers to her as "Emma," to her frustration.

Significant Wardrobe Shift: The major characters have new outfits to show how they've moved up a grade. Arthur's yellow sweater has been replaced by a green sweater, D.W. has a blue dress, Francine now wears an orange shirt, Binky wears a white shirt, etc.

Gratuitous Italian
 Arthur's First Day / int_bebb370
comment
Gratuitous Italian: Cressida Billings-Thorpe, one of Buster's new classmates, speaks the Italian phrase "Non prendermi in giro" to him to show off her smarts. She claims the phrase means "You'd better not cheat off of me," but she's incorrect.note It actually means "Do not joke." The correct Italian phrase for "You'd better not cheat off of me" is "Faresti meglio a non tradirmi."

Yank the Dog's Chain: Buster isn't in Mr. Ratburn's class with most of his friends, but he sees Sue Ellen and they wave to each other. Unfortunately, the teacher gives assigned seating to better remember the names, making both of them sad.
