Episode Notes |
| |
A scene was deleted where Julian gets a BJ from another guy, revealing that he was gay in the pilot. But the scene was cut so that it would have a bigger build when it took place later in the series. As a result, Julian is the only character not featured in the final musical clips. The deleted clip can be found on the Season 1 DVD.
| 4.8 million viewers tuned in for the series premiere.
| This was one of the last acting appearances of Denis Forest who died just six days after this episode first aired.

Vic: That's funny. I don't recall having signed up for an ethics lesson from a scumbag defense lawyer.
| Dr. Grady: What's in the bag? (From a brown paper bag, Mackey pulls a bottle of booze, a phone book, keys, a lighter and box cutter. He then lays them on the table in front of Grady.) What's that stuff for?
Mackey: It's what I'm gonna use to get you to tell me where Jenny Reeborg is.
Dr. Grady: Your turn to play bad cop?
Mackey: Nah, good cop and bad cop left for the day. I'm a different kinda cop.
