Episode Notes |
| |
Number 23: Jack Sawyer’s room is on the 23rd floor.
| Even though they do not appear onscreen together here, Dixie Seatle and Jonathan Welsh were both stars of the show Adderly.
| Guest star Jill Jacobson was, at least at the time of this episode, married to creator Greg Strangis.
| Nudity is successfully slipped by the censors during the teaser. When the flashes of erotic and violent imagery speeds up, one of the frames displayed is of a woman's bare breasts.

Episode Quotes |
| |
Harrison: What was that?
Suzanne: Norton's new toy for detecting listening devices.
Harrison: Do you really think they're going to waste their time bugging us?
Norton: Oh, it's the Boy Scout in me.
Harrison: Speaking of Boy Scouts...
Ironhorse: (walking into the room) Excuse me?
Harrison: It's not you, Colonel; it's the system.
| Director: Enovy, if I return to the caverns now, the Advocacy will execute me.
Envoy: Don't be so pessimistic, comrade. Perhaps they'll take pity on your miserable existence. Your feeble pleas may move them so much, you might be permitted the honour of taking your own life.
| Suzanne: Norton and I really can't do much more until we have free access to their complete lab workout.
Harrison: Unless...
Norton: Ah, the tone of voice, the incomplete sentence, the deep hidden meaning we've all been waiting for.
Harrison: Do you realise, oh, insightful one, that less enlightened individuals consider unauthorised access to police databanks highly unethical?
Ironhorse: Some might even consider it illegal.
Suzanne: Oh, and rude.
Norton: Oh, stop already. You've convinced me.
| Envoy: The humans freely choose pain.
Aide: For drugs, they'll do anything.
| Suzanne: (looking over dead body) He must've seen something pretty awful before he went.
Coroner: Maybe we all do.

Episode Goofs |
| |
When the test subject in the teaser bleeds out his eyes, the blood is actually coming from the eye-frames of the device on his head.
| When Sherry and the other woman render Jack Sawyer unconscious, they are initially holding him up in front of them by his arms. But when it cuts to the next shot, he's between them with his arms drapped over their shoulders.
| When the alien aide electrocutes one of the test subjects, he can be heard talking, but his mouth is clearly not moving.
| When the one escaped test subject injects the drug into his ear, his left hand disappears from his ear. The other hand also changes position between shots.
| When the Envoy is being cornered by the escaped subjects, her left hand is close up in order to talk through the radio device, but in the next shot, it's inexplicably down to her side.

Novak: Aliens, from outer space... and not a one of them a little E.T.
E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial is a heat-warming film about an alien who befriends a boy while trying to find his back to his home planet. Incidently, the director, Steven Spielberg, would later go on to depict malevolent aliens when he directed an updated film adaptation of The War of the Worlds novel in 2005.
