Audience Participation Tuesdays

As you've probably noticed, I generally have at least a two-week lag time between when the Six Differences cartoons run and when I post my answers to the puzzle on this blog. I've decided that instead of feeling perpetually guilty about that, I'd take advantage of it. From now on, every Tuesday, I'll be posting that day's comic without posting what the six differences are. That gives you the chance to find one of the differences and leave a comment telling me what it is. I'll choose the answer I like best and use it in my official post, whenever I get around to doing that. And yes, there will be a prize.
So, without further ado, here's the first ever Audience Participation Tuesday Puzzle:

Have fun, kids!

In panel one, the robot is chasing Johnny Pyro, the most prolific child arsonist in Chicago history as he's fleeing the scene of his latest crime. Panel two features the two fleeing together with the robot as his menacing hench-bot The Igniter

1) The robot in the second panel is in fact an android.
2) The audience members in the first panel are appreciating the movie ironically.
3) The child in the first panel is fleeing the scene after setting the building on fire.
4) There is no fourth difference.
5) The teen in the first panel is drinking Pepsi. The teen in the second panel is also drinking Pepsi, but since he is from the South, he calls it Coke.
6) The android in the second panel is violating Azimov's first law. The robot in the first panel is also violating the law, but he considers considers the laws to be merely suggestions.

The scene in panel two occurs in 1919 and the film is silent. Bob Weber colorized it to throw us off track. The other five differences consist of the fact that all the audience members in that panel are now dead, except the crew-cutted kid in the back row who turned 99 last Friday. He attributes his long life and good health to the traumatizing effect of this film, which led him to begin every morning for the rest of his life with two shots of whiskey and a cigar.
