Trivia[]

This is the 126th episode of the show.
Dora's head looks a bit larger in this episode.
Map's dancing is recycled from Dora's Pegaso Adventure.
Dora's hair changes in this episode.
Just like Dora's Dance to the Rescue, there is a lot of dancing in this episode.
- On top of that, the dance slippers/scuba flippers switcharoo previously occurred in Dora's Dance to the Rescue.
- Unironically, the day this episode premiered, the Nick Jr. block actually aired Dora's Dance to the Rescue.
Rather than singing the Travel Song as usual, Dora and Boots sing Dance, Dance, Dance (Baila, Baila, Baila).
This is one of the few episodes where Dora and Boots returned to where they started after reaching the final destination on the map.
This episode premiered exactly 3 years after Super Spies 2: The Swiping Machine.
- Additionally, this premiered exactly one month after the previous episode.
The three squares in the Picture Pop-Up Sequence were far apart from each other in this episode.
In one scene in this episode, specifically the one where Boots said he heard Swiper, he (Boots) has his Dora and Friends look.
When Swiper is stopped from swiping the singing keys, he drops to all fours like a real fox as he runs off, much like how he used to do in the majority of Season 1.
The early Season 1 version of swiping music is used.

Goofs/Errors[]

In some scenes of this episode, Dora has her Season 2-Early Season 7 look.
It is unknown how Swiper got to the Dance School.
Unlike other episodes, when Dora and Boots stop Swiper, they don't look at him. They instead look at the viewer.

Here's proof.

Something similar happens in the Season 5 episode Benny's Treasure, and will happen again in the Season 7 episodes Benny the Castaway, Dora's Moonlight Adventure, Dora & Diego's Amazing Animal Circus Adventure, and Dora's Thanksgiving Day Parade.

- This would make it look like that Dora and Boots stopped the viewer.

Note[]

This episode was first To Be uploaded to YouTube on Sunday, April 3, 2021, but is now either blocked, made private, Unlisted. Taken Down, or Deleted. Another copy was uploaded by a New third-party YouTube account on August 17, 2023, where the episode opens without a fade-in; as a result, the beginning of the episode’s music can be heard for a split-second at the end of the intro, and so does the start of the credit music when the episode closes without a fade-out, which is also slightly cut off at the beginning. When the fast-paced credits end, the music fades, and the Nickelodeon logo remains at normal speed, including its own music, ending with a whoosh to the left In The Episode
