  Episode Notes  
Children of Oberon introduced: The Weird Sisters.
 
The spell that Demona casts is from the pages that she stole from the Grimorum Arcanorum in "Temptation."
 
Demona calls Owen "the tricky one." This is another hint that Demona knows Owen's secret identity. She even restrained him with an iron cable.
 
The Weird Sister have individual names: Luna, the silver-haired; Phoebe, the blonde-haired; and Selene, the raven-haired.
 
This episode marks the last time that Demona and Xanatos work together.
 
This episode marks the first time that Xanatos tries to achieve immortality.
 
Throughout all four parts of City of Stone, Broadway either doesn't appear, or appears without dialogue.
 
After 9-11, The word "terrorist" was edited out for its subsequent reairings on Toon Disney.
 
  Episode Quotes  
Female Hostage: Don't come near me!
Brooklyn: Don't gush all over us, okay? It's kind of embarrassing.
 
Selene: The cause is everything until their own life is threatened. Still, it's good that you saved her.
Phoebe: If you forget what she's forgotten, that every life is precious, then you'll be no different from her.
Goliath: I'll never be like this terrorist.
Luna: We were not talking about this terrorist.
 
 (Upon seeing Goliath in stone during the night)
Demona: Oh, my love. What have I... What have they done to you?
 
  Episode Goofs  
In the flashback at the beginning of the episode, Demona is talking to the Captain of the Guard (Bodhe) about their plan failing. During the scene, the animators added lines to Demona's face that made her look much older. At the end of the scene, the lines have been removed and she looks young once again. As noted on the DVD commentary, the animators used the model of the older Demona (1020 A.D.) while they should have used the younger one.
 
Apparently, the Hunter's identity is unknown to the people, but doesn't anyone notice the striking resemblance of the Hunter's emblem and Gillecomgain's face?
 
Findlaech and the others seem to be very experienced in playing chess in the 975 A.D. (10th century) flashback. However, it is believed that chess did not arrived in England until early in the 11th century (about 1013).
 
When Demona is talking to the gargoyles in the cave, she turns to hear the voices of the three old gargoyles at the entrance to the cave. In the shot, none of the other gargoyles are shown between her and the cave entrance. In the next shot, Demona is shown behind the other gargoyles. Now they are between her and the entrance to the cave.
 
An interesting error is the position of the scar on Gillecomgain's face. The scar runs from the bottom of the right side of his face to the top of the left side of his face. However, Demona was standing up full when she struck him with her left hand and the angle of her swipe was high to low. The scar on his face should have run from the top of the right side of his face to the bottom of the left side of his face.
 
  Cultural References  
Casablanca on TV

The black and white movie that was playing on Elisa's TV just before Demona's broadcast came up seemed like the last scene from Casablanca, a classic movie set during World War II in the Moroccan city of Casablanca. Humphrey Bogart plays a bar owner in Casablanca whose woman he once loved and left him in Paris shows up again. Casablanca was ranked by the American Film Institute as the 2nd greatest American film, and it won the Academy Award for Best Picture, Directing and Writing Adapted Screenplay.
