Survivor count: 47,898
| The recurring role of the reporter played by Christina Schild is named 'Playa Palacios' in this episode. This is curious as the credits for previous episodes give the character's last name as 'Kohn'. Additionally, the full name of Biski Gugushe's journalist is given as 'Sekou Hamilton' even though an earlier episode had named him Eick.
| This episode takes place 10 days after the events of "The Hand of God".

Episode Quotes |
| |
Helo: Now all we have to do is wait until dark, infiltrate the most heavily fortified military hub on this planet, hope the Cylons haven't completely wasted the spaceport, steal a ship, locate Galactica, and fly to her without getting shot to hell.
Sharon: Is that all?
| Kara: Do you have a problem with my hygiene?
Lee: You have hygiene?
Kara: I clean up good sometimes, all right?
Lee: Well, let me know when it's one of those times.
| Adama: Politics. As exciting as war. Definitely as dangerous.
Roslin: Though in war, you can only get killed once. In politics it can happen over and over.
Adama: You're still standing.
Roslin: So are you.

The tension of between the meeting of Roslin and Zarek is based on the meeting between Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat and Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin at the signing of the 1993 Oslo Accords.
| Roslin: Oh, don't worry, I won't be kissing you today.
Tom Zarek: That's a shame. I shaved very closely in anticipation of being smacked by you.
This exchange is worded very similar to an exchange in the 1970 film Patton.
