Episode Notes
 
Although he was previously heard by Ms. Melanie Trafford in "The Color of Truth - August 8. 1955" and by Troian Claridge and Jimmy Giovanni in "A Portrait for Troian - February 7, 1971", this is the first episode in which Al is seen by someone other than Sam.
 
Olivia Burnette (Susan Brookner) would later play Katie Beckett, Sam's younger sister, in "The Leap Home - November 25, 1969".
 
Troian Bellisario (Teresa Brookner) is the real life daughter of creator Donald P. Bellisario and co-producer, staff writer and narrator Deborah Pratt. Her mother's character in "A Portrait for Troian - February 7, 1971" - Troian Claridge - was named after her.
