Background information and notes

 * There was no split screen at the end of this episode.
 * This is the first episode of the season to not feature Anil Kapoor as President Omar Hassan or Cherry Jones as President Allison Taylor.
 * When Samir says that "even a giant can be toppled by a single stone", he is alluding to the Biblical story of David and Goliath in which the giant Goliath was slain in a miraculous attack when King David slung a stone at him.
 * The music used as Dana Walsh and Cole Ortiz walk back towards the car is the same music used in the Season 1 Finale when Jack decides whether to kill Nina Myers in the garage.
