Another very special episode dealt with Arnold and Sam meet a street performer.  After a performance, she has an epileptic seizure and Sam is scared and thought she was dying.  The boys felt uncomfortable around her and when they were making jokes about her seizures, they found out that the housekeeper Pearl herself has epilepsy but, unlike the street performer, has control of her seizures by taking medications.


In Season 7, Arnold is traumatized after he's been mugged.⏎
