Writer Terence Winter won the 2006 Emmy for Outstanding Writing in a Drama Series for his script for this episode.
 
Drea de Matteo (Adriana La Cerva) and Steve Buscemi (Tony Blundetto) are no longer credited as main cast members and have been removed from the opening credits.
 
Frank Vincent (Phil Leotardo), Joseph Gannascoli (Vito Spatafore), Dan Grimaldi (Patsy Parisi) and Toni Kalem (Angie Bonpensiero) have been added as main cast members. However, they are only credited for the episodes in which they appear.
 
Unlike past episodes, this episode did not feature a promotional ad for the next episode. This was because the producers wanted to keep the events after Tony's shooting a secret.
