  Episode References  
Some people speculate that the Hyper-Gate accident that is mentioned is the same one that Chessmaster Hex is supposed to have blown up and also the cause of Faye's accident. Though producers haven't commented on this.
 
The beginning of this episode deals with Spike having a flashback of an operation. We never find out what his accident is, but during this episode we can see that he has had an artifical eye inserted. Though it seems of little relevance, its importance will later be learned.
